His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 469
Chapter 469
Emeric squinted his eagle–like eyes, exuding an aura of calm composure and dignified majesty as he firmly shook hands with William
In every aspect, he held his own.
“About that incident of the horse racing track, I hope I haven’t caused you any distress, Mr. Morris. My daughter is a bit of a wild child, lacking in worldly experience. If she’s stepped out of line, I hope you’ll forgive her Emeric’s smile was gracious, paired with his deep, resonant voice, revealed the unmistakable presence of an aristocrat.
The crowd was stunned.
Had they seen this right?
The scion of an old money dynasty heir to a royal lineage, and the helmsman of a top–tier financial empire was now extending a friendly, hand to Emeric! The Ashbournes, despite their lavish wealth, only dominated their corner of Skyrim.
But the Abernathy and Chambers Groups were the top of Elmsworth’s local elite. How could William just overlook them in favor of Emeric? Truly Emeric’s influence was formidable!
At that moment, Frederic, Barry, and Jeff also made their way over, standing to one side,
These three heavy–hitters had varied expressions, each with their own cunning plans
Frederic, in particular, seemed to have trouble maintaining his composure, his jawline tout as a blade’s edge.
In the Elmsworth circle, it was common knowledge that the J Group’s first domestic business venture had gone to the Abernathy Group. At a time when their relationship was in a delicate phase, William seemed cool towards Frederic, instead appearing closer to Emeric, with whom he had no business ties.
This
WDS somewhat of a sub to Frederic, a form of invisible suppression.
*Chairman Emeric, you’re too modest.”
William continued to heap praise upon Evadne, sparing no compliments, “Your daughter is a rare gem- not only is she breathtakingly beautiful, but her equestrian skila rival those of professional nders. Among our nation’s lady riders, she’s top–tier. After the racing event, Ford couldn’t stop singing Ms. Evadne’s praises and hoped for another meeting. Both share a passion for horses, and I’m sure they’ll replace plenty to talk about”
William gestured to his son, who straightened his tie and walked over with poise.
Ford glanced at Thaddeus with a smirk that was unsettling.
Thaddeus clenched his fiats, his eyes suddenly filled with icy ferocity, as rage smoldered within him!
‘Damn, Thad, is that blond prick provoking you?” Jareth noticed and clenched his own fists, “We’re in Elmsworth, not abroad. What’s he playing at, acting all high and mighty here? Bloody foreigner!”
“He’s got a thing for Evadne, I could tell the moment I first saw him Thaddeus muttered darkly, the taste of jealousy turning his stomach sour.
“My sister–in–law is too outstanding. Which guy wouldn’t be smitten by her? rd question his orientation or his manhood if he wasnt Jareth was relieved his own wife was a pearl in a clamshell, a beauty only he had the privilege to appreciate. Dealing with a stunning beauty like Evadne, with charms beyond compare, would break any man’s heart.
*Ms. Evedne, it’s a pleasure to see you again, Ford said, eyes burning with intensity as he extended his hand in a gentlemanly gesture.
Thaddeus’s eyes turned red, his breath stuck in his throat
It was a polite gesture, but he knew the intentions of this foreigner were anything but puret
As he was about to rush forward, Jareth grabbed him just in time
“Hey don’t do anything rash. He’s just shaking hands with Evadne. You’re about to go off the deep and with jealousy. That’s not a good look. Reacting like this only shows you’re petty or that you don’t trust Exedne. You’re constantly worried she’ll be lured away by some rogue”
“That guy, he’s up to no good, Thaddeus’s eyes shimmered a dangerous red, his temple throbbing
1 don’t want his filthy hands touching my woman.”
“But have you thought about the consequences if you go there now?”
Jareth, the clear–beaded outsider, offered his advice to navigate the situation, “Tonight’s banquet, hosted by William and his son, is meant to select business partners. Everyone wants a shot, including Chairman Emeric. If you mess things up now, will Emeric forgive you for ruining a potential deal? Evadne has mentioned her father holds grudges. Be careful not to ruin your chances at joining the alter
While he hesitated, Evadne smiled and said, “Mr. Ford, I’m delighted you’ve come to Elmsworth. To show my respect, please allow me to greet you with a gesture from your own culture“:
With that, the beauty lowered her lashes and gracefully lifted the hem of her red gown, performing a poised and elegant curtsy reminiscent of a medieval court ball captivating all the men around her, including Ford.
But only Evadne knew the truth she simply didn’t want to touch this man,
She was aware of Ford’s reputation as a dapper rake, a more notorious playboy than even Jareth had been, with enough illegitimate children to form a soccer team.
He cleanliness obsession wouldn’t allow it. She found him revolting.
Thaddeus, seeing through her ruse, let a sweet, tender smile spread across his l*ps.
Ford, still basking in his vanity, thought Evadne’s gesture showed she was fond of him, his gaze filled with foolish self–importance
“This gathering,” William announced, “is not only to discuss upcoming business ventures but also at my son’s behest. He hopes it provides an opportunity for us to get to know each other better, and for him to learn more about Ms. Evadne.”
William’s intentions couldn’t be clearer; he was eyeing Evadne to become the future Mrs. Morris!
Upon hearing this, Cassius turned solemn, his gaze shifting complicatedly towards his father.
To everyone’s shock, Emeric’s next words left William and his son utterly gobsmacked. “Mr. William, have you taken a fancy to my daughter? Are you seeking her hand in marriage?”
The room erupted into a chorus of gasps
and
murmurs,
Evadne hersell was taken aback. She hadn’t expected her father to blurt out the unspoken so brazenly!
The man had no subtlety about him!
Thaddeus felt a pang of anxiety, his palms breaking out in a cold sweat
He had unwavering faith in Evadne, but not in Emeric.

If Emeric could broker a marriage between Nydia and the venomous Avery for the sake
olive branch extended by the Morris family?
Especially since he never held Thaddeus in high regard.
As William was at a loss for words, Ford, unable to contain his affection for Evadne, blurted out, “Yes, Chairman Emeric, I am quite taken with your daughter. It was love at first sight.”
The crowd was in an uproar, the society ladies green with emy!
What luck Evadne had, attracting suitors more noble than the last!
Despite being a divorcee, a second–hand woman, she was suddenly the belle of the ball in the eyes of these gentlemen!
“Ms. Evadre’s poise at the horse races was unforgettable, the most radiant girl I’ve ever seen. Since laying eyes on her, my heart and sight have room for no other. Therefore, I wish to court your daughter and hope Ms. Evadne would grant me the opportunity to pursue her Ford’s words were humble, yet his demeanor betrayed a haughty pride, as if it were a privilege to be pursued by him.
“Evadne” Nydia held Evadne’s hand, worried.
But the young mistress was unfazed, her voice cool and measured. “Mr. Ford, I am a divorced woman, a fact known to all of Elmsworth. Surely you’re not unaware?”
William and his son appeared flustered, exchanging uneasy glances.
All eyes turned to Thaddeus, whose l*ps were pressed into a thin line, his gaze fixed on Evadne, ready to shield her from any slander.
That Ashbourne girl, too clever by half, acting so fl*ppantly sneered Barry, standing next to Frederic. 1s divorce something to be proud of, to be mentioned at such an occasionk She has no shame, and now she’s dragging Thaddeus down with her. Mr. Frederic, this girl is clearly showing no respect for the Abernathy Group, flaunting her disgrace.
Frederic’s face darkened with each passing moment.
“Divorce might be a disgrace for other women, but for Ms. Evadne, perhaps it’s a badge of honor,” Edith said, linking arms with Barry, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Mr. Ford’s interest in her and her public declamation–it’s a slap to the Abemathy Group, a boast of her allure, and a thorn in Thad’s side. Why wouldn’t she relish it?”
Frederic’s expression was loy.
“There are plenty of fish in the sea, Mr. Ford. With your standing, you won’t struggle to replace a worthy match. Clearly, I am not up to scratch you have set your sights too high
Evadne’s graceful refusal was softened by a smile, yet it was still a rejection!
Ford felt a surge of frustration. He might have been put off by her status as a divorcee, but the sting of rejection was far worse!
Stepping forward, Ford gazed at Evadne with warmth, as if he could not live without her.
“Ms. Evadne, whether you’ve been married before does not matter to me. It’s you I like. Your experiences, your candor, they only add to your charm, drawing me in. Your ex may not have appreciated you, but to me, you shine like a star in the night, a pearl in the vast ocean. I will cherish you, care for you. Please give me a chance to win your heart!”
1 swear, I cant stand this! They call it passion, I call it faceless audacity!” Jareth leaned over, pretending to retch in support of Thaddeus
It’s all my fault, Thaddeus muttered, his heart heavy with regret, hands shaking. “If I’d been a better husband to Evadne, if I hadn’t been so foolish, none of this would be happening. All the blame is mine.”
The crowd was stunned, and even William was taken aback. His son, always so proud, was humbling himself for a woman for the very first time!
Just as Evadne prepared to give Ford a piece of her mind, her father stepped forward and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, smiling at William his son. “Gentlemen, I’m afraid my daughter is already spoken for, She’s engaged to be married.”
