His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire Chapter 4

Chapter 4
Chapter 4
Five days later. Thaddeus called over his secretary – Gordon, after the morning meeting.
“Any knews about llana?”-
Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out at the Elmsworth scenery, Thaddeus’ tall figure cast a strong oppressive atmosphere.
I’m sorry. Mr. Thaddeus. Nothing so far.”
Gordon looked nervous, wiping the sweat off his forehead. “And, she didn’t return to the nursing home where she used to work after leaving that night. I personally went to her hometown Marlowe City to check, but the address was fake. No family shared the same surname as her.”
“A fake address?” Thaddeus suddenly turned around, his eyes gloomy.
“Yes, I checked with the local registrar office, but I couldn’t find any information about Mrs. Abernathy.” Gordon said. He was used to referring
to llana as “Mrs. Abernathy”.
Thaddeus’ mind was in chaos. What kind of woman had he married? Was she a spy?
“Did you check Cas sius’ identity? She left with him that night.”
Tm sorry, Mr. Thaddeus. If President Ashbourne really wanted to hide her identity, we might not find any clues…”
Thaddeus’ heart rate accelerated, and anger flashed in his eyes.
*Cas sius seems like a decent guy. How could he do such a thing?”
“Well this isn’t exactly a bad thing, right? It’s more like he’s taking over you ex-wife…”
Thaddeus glared at him, and Gordon was so scared he couldn’t catch his breath, coughing.
The scene of Cas sius protecting Ilana that night was still fresh in his mind, his deep eyes were shocking.
Thaddeus felt oppressed. How could his wife attract someone like Cas sius to be her protector?
He remembered what she had said in an attempt to win him back.
– “Thaddeus, can we…not get divorced? Because…I love you!”
“Liar!” Thaddeus glared fiercely, a strong chill radiating from him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, the more he couldn’t stop thinking about it!
At that moment, his cell phone vibrated on the table.
Thaddeus collected his thoughts and saw it was a call from Acacia and quickly picked up.
“Acacia, what’s up?”
“Thaddeus, I’m in the Abernathy group lobby. Can you come pick me up? I made some snacks and wanted you to try them.”
Acacia’s voice was sweet, even Gordon felt a tingling sensation just hearing her.
“You’re in the company lobby?” Thaddeus furrowed his brows.
“Yes, Thaddeus. What’s wrong? You don’t want to see me?” Acacia’s sweet voice came through the phone.
*No, I’ll send Gordon down to pick you up.”
After hanging up, Thaddeus’ face became even more gloomy.
His divorce papers with Ilana hadn’t been finalized, and the news of their divorce hadn’t been released. If Acacia came to him directly at this time, it would cause a lot of controversy.
He was not afraid of that, however…
At this moment, his cell phone vibrated again.
Thaddeus looked at the screen, his heart pounding.
“Grandpa.”
“You ignorant boy! Did you take my words as wind?!”
Hamiltion Abernathy scolded, “I told you, once you marry Ilana, you can’t have any contact with the Stirling family’s daughter! But you broke your promise and even let her into our company. You might not respect yourself, but don’t you care about Ilana’s dignity? Get your a ss over here!*
The atmosphere in the room was very oppressive.
Hamiltion, leaning on his cane, sat down on the sofa with the help of his secretary and Frederic. He was fuming.

Thaddeus stood in front of his elder, standing tall, while Acacia was stopped outside the door. In Hamilton’s words, a woman like Acacia didn’t deserve to see his honorable face.
“Speak! What’s going on between you and that woman from the Stirling family?” Hamiltion slammed his cane on the ground.
“Dad, calm down…” Frederic tried to pacify Hamiltion, glaring at Thaddeus.
“Grandpa, the three-year term is over.”
Thaddeus’ voice was h oa rse, he said word by word, “You once promised me, just marry Ilana for three years. After three years, whether to continue or divorce, it’s all up to me.”
Hamiltion’s face turned pale as if struck by lightning.
In these three years, llana, the obedient child, had stayed with him every day. Over a thousand days had passed like shooting stars, he hadn’t
realized the term was up!
“Now, I choose to end this marriage and be with the person I truly love. You shouldn’t have any objections. Ilana has already signed the divorce agreement. We’ll process the divorce in the coming days.” Thaddeus said calmly.
“What? You already divorced her?” Hamiltion stood up in shock, his vision turning black, almost falling.
Thaddeus quickly rushed forward to support Hamiltion, but was angrily pushed away.
“Dad! They haven’t officially processed the divorce yet, just signed the agreement. You have a history of stroke, you can’t get too excited!” Frederic hurriedly comforted.
“Why can’t I find a satisfactory daughter-in-law? Why can’t I have a granddaughter-in-law I like?”
Thaddeus stood in place, not knowing what to do. Frederic was also dragged into it.
“I want Ilana! Go get my llana back! Without Ilana, I can’t live peacefully. I want Ilana to be the daughter-in-law of the Abernathy family!” Hamilton was acting like a child, losing control of his emotions.
“Thaddeus, call Ilana now, have her come see your grandpa!” Frederic said in a rush.
“Grandpa, that’s pointless. Even if I bring her back now, our marriage is already over. There’s no going back.”
Thaddeus thought it would be best to rip the band-aid off quickly. With time, feelings would fade.
“Ah!” Hamilton started to shake and fell back.
Hamilton’s sudden faint scared Frederic and Thaddeus. They quickly dialed for a doctor and searched for medication. The scene was
chaotic.
Thaddeus felt helpless, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and call Ilana.
However, the automated voice told him, “The number you dialed has been disconnected.”
Not only had Ilana disappeared, her phone number was also disconnected?!
“So annoying!” Thaddeus was so angry his eyes turned red and he clenched his fists.
At the entrance of K Orld Hotel.
Numerous executives were waiting for their new female leader.
“I heard the new GM is a young woman!”
“I don’t believe it. Four male managers have come and gone, and none of them could change the situation. Now a female manager is supposed to make a difference? What a joke!”
“I heard she’s Chairman Emeric’s biological daughter…”
“Chairman Emeric has so many wives, this daughter must be an unloved illegitimate child. If she really was his precious daughter, why would she be sent here to deal with this mess?”
Everyone laughed.
“She’s here! The new boss is here!”
A top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce came to a stop at the entrance, followed by several high-end Maybachs. It was quite a spectacle.
Seeing the license plate, everyone immediately quieted down, focusing intently.
The car door opened and the first thing to come into sight was a pair of black high heels. An aura of authority.
The next moment, a stunningly beautiful woman with a curvy figure and radiant face stepped out of the car. Her sharp eyes and queenly aura were intimidating.
“Hello everyone.”
Evadne slightly opened her rosy lips, her smile breathtaking. “I’m your new GM. But I need to clear something up: I’m not an illegitimate child.

I guess some of you might be disappointed?”
As soon as she finished, those who were just talking broke into a cold sweat.
A few minutes earlier, in the car.
Evadne picked up her laptop and shut off the two security cameras at the hotel entrance.
