His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 126

When Mr. Bartley and his wife heard the news, they were like deer caught in headlights.

The K Group of Skyrim? Emeric’s daughter?

“Are you really the chairman’s daughter?” Mr. Bartley asked Evadne in shock.

“Correct. You can confirm with these two gentlemen.”

Evadne gestured towards Thaddeus and Frederic and smiled, “I’ve had some dealings with the

Abernathy family, and they can vouch for my identity.”

Thaddeus had a heavy look in his eyes.

She hesitated to call them “acquaintances” because she didn’t feel close to them.

“Guys, turns out Ms. Evadne is an acquaintance of yours.”

Upon hearing she was Emeric’s daughter, Mr. Bartley, the government official, immediately perked up,

“I had no idea about your identity. My bad.”

He then shook hands with Evadne.

“Mr. Bartley. I wonder, do I now have the creds to discuss a collaboration with you?” Evadne asked with

a smile, her eyes exuding confidence.

Mr. Bartley seemed a tad flustered.

He thought this young woman had a presence that commanded respect.

Thaddeus was ticked off, clenching his fist in annoyance.

Now that she was a big shot from the Ashbourne family, did she think she could call the shots?

Did she think doing business is like a walk in the park, and she could just jump in whenever she

pleased?

“Ms. Evadne, nice meeting you, but Mr. Bartley and I have important matters to discuss. This is not

something you can simply barge into, so could you kindly buzz off?” Frederic said with a smile on his

face but a chill in his eyes.

Glynnis was seething, but Elspeth held her back.

Mr. Frederic would handle Evadne. There was no need for Glynnis to step in.

“I know you guys have important things to discuss, but if it wasn’t for Westguard, I wouldn’t be here.”

Evadne said calmly, “I don’t get it why I can’t participate. The Ashbourne group is not lacking in

resources or funds compared to the Abernathy group. We are just as capable of handling the projects

as the Abernathy Group can. Shopping around is always a good idea. I’m just giving Mr. Bartley

another option, what’s wrong with that?”

Mr. Bartley was taken aback. She really meant business.

Frederic and Elspeth both looked pretty grim at this point.

“Ms. Evadne.” Thaddeus, who had been quiet, stepped forward. His gaze was intense and his shadow

fell over her slender figure. “The Abernathy Group has already reached a preliminary agreement with

Mr. Bartley. We’ve squared away all the details, and we’ve met all the requirements for the

development of Westguard. You suddenly stepped in, trying to sabotage our deal. Don’t you think that’s

unethical and way out of line?”

Evadne looked up, her stunning face adorned with a small smile, “Sabotage? You’re right, I’m here to

mess up your deal.”

“Evadne!” Thaddeus’ eyes widened, his teeth gritted.

“But you’re wrong by saying I’m unethical.” Evadne took a step back to escape his oppressive aura.

“Business ethics has always been a game of the victors. If the Abernathy Group had already signed the

contract, then yeah, I’d be crossing a line. But as of now, the Abernathy Group has yet to sign anything

with Mr. Bartley, so who gets to draw the line is still up for grabs.”

Thaddeus squinted, irritated by her words.

She was right. Anything could happen before a contract was signed. He had lived by this principle for

years, crushing countless companies in his wake.

He didn’t expect that one day, he would find himself in the same predicament.

To add insult to injury, his opponent was his ex-wife!

“Ms. Evadne, I don’t think Mr. Bartley will collaborate with you.” Fed up with her arrogant demeanor,

Elspeth sneered, “After all, Mr. Bartley and the Abernathy Group have years of partnership under our

belt. We’ve always maintained a good relationship, which is something a nobody like you could never

compete with. Even if you want to discuss a collaboration, you just rushed here all by yourself, without

making an appointment, and you crashed our party to see Mr. Bartley. It’s really disrespectful and

rude.”

“Exactly!” Glynnis murmured in agreement.

“Ah, I know I came abruptly, but there was no other way. I was afraid if I were a step behind, Mr. Bartley

would regret it.” Evadne feigned helplessness with a sigh.

“Regret? What do you mean?” Elspeth snapped.

Evadne completely ignored her, addressing Mr. Bartley instead, “Mr. Bartley, are you really not

considering a collaboration with the Ashbourne Group? You’re not discriminating against me because

I’m a girl with no influence in the group, right? I’m here on my brother, Cas sius, the president of the K

Group. He has given me full authority on this matter. if you don’t believe me, I can arrange a meeting

with President Ashbourne right away.”

“Ms. Evadne, it’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s just that I’ve got a long history with the Abernathy Group,

and we’ve worked together many times before. I trust them completely.” Mr. Bartley gently turned her

down. “Plus, this project is in Elmsworth, and the Abernathy Group is a big name here. So maybe next

time, we can work together.”

At that moment, Frederic and Elspeth were wearing smug looks on their faces.

This young woman just waltzed in here, thinking she could swoop in and sn atch the project from the

Abernathy Group. Dream on!

“Alright. I get it. You don’t want to upset your old pals. But I can promise you one thing if you work with

the Ashbourne Group.” Evadne started to smirk mysteriously. “You definitely won’t regret it.”

Suddenly, Thaddeus felt a chill run down his spine.

Her expression, tone, and gaze! She was up to something!

“Ms. Evadne, what are you implying? Is there some problem with working with the Abernathy Group?”

Elspeth asked sharply, frowning.

“Mr. Jason, what time is it?” Evadne suddenly asked.

“Ma’am, it’s three in the afternoon now,” Jason responded.

“Good, take out your phone, turn on the news channel World Wonders Weekly, and show it to Mr.

Bartley.”

“Alright, ma’am.” Jason took out his phone and started playing the current news broadcast.

“Welcome to the World Wonders Weekly. Our top story today. Earl Frost, the deputy general manager

of the Abernathy Group, has been charged with bribery by the Elmsworth Attorney at one o’clock this

afternoon. He is suspected of manipulating bids for the group’s IT equipment and irregularities in the

bidding process for Abernathy Group projects. thereby gaining improper benefits. It is understood that

Earl is the cousin of Elspeth, the wife of Abernathy Group’s chairman, and they have jointly developed

multiple projects. The extent of involvement in this case is still under further investigation by the

prosecution. We will continue to follow up on the developments.”

Frederic’s face turned deathly pale with shock, and Elspeth nearly fainted, her vision blurring.

“What the hell is going on?! How could my uncle suddenly get arrested?!” Glynnis also panicked,

pressing for answers.

Thaddeus was staring at Evadne’s calm face and his eyebrows twitched.

Elspeth’s cousin had been taken away two hours ago, but the news had been tightly sealed!

No doubt, her brother Arnold Ashbourne, the prosecutor, must have had a hand in this!

“Elspeth! What the hell is going on?” Frederic also panicked, whispering to Elspeth.

“I don’t know! I really don’t know. There must be some misunderstanding! This news is all nonsense,

you can’t take it seriously!” Elspeth didn’t expect the news to break so soon and could only stand her

ground in denial.

But Mr. and Mrs. Bartley’s faces had darkened.

“Elspeth,” Mrs. Bartley said sternly. “Earl is your cousin, isn’t he? And you were involved in the projects

he bribed his way through, right?”

“But I don’t know anything!” Elspeth was at a loss and could only pretend to be clueless.

Just then, there was some commotion on the golf course.

A group of men in suits with badges on their chests quickly approached them.

It was the prosecution!

“Ms. Elspeth, your cousin is suspected of several commercial crimes. We need you to come with us to

a**ist in the investigation!”
