His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode

Chapter 207

“Jareth”. A single utterance that sent a shiver down Jareth’s spine.

His Adam’s apple bobbed, a reaction to the term he didn’t quite expect.

Her tears, welling up from her crimson-rimmed eyes and rolling down her cheeks, seemed to drop into his heart, stirring ripples.

He instantly pushed aside her previous act of leaving him behind.

“From your sister-in-law, Evadne?” Jareth squinted his eyes, gently wiping the tear stains on her cheeks with his calloused fingers.

Marilla nodded, her nose reddening.

“Where did you lose it? Here?”

She nodded again, her eyes reddened.

“Don’t worry, I will help you.”

Jareth took Marilla’s small hand and walked with her to the stage under everyone’s gaze.

A trail of dreamy pink light followed, illuminating them like a masterfully painted portrait.

Marilla shyly lowered her gaze, but couldn’t help stealing glances at him.

Although Jareth looked a bit fierce, he was indeed handsome.

His striking and sophisticated face was visually captivating, peerless in the world.

Marilla pursed her l*ps, her gaze tracing the contours of his face, carefully etching his handsome features in her heart. “Music, stop

Jareth stood at the DJ booth, picked up the microphone, and with these words, the bustling crowd fell silent

Edith and Glynnis were having the time of their lives, until someone reminded them to look at the screen.

Edith suddenly bolted upright from the sofa, letting out a scream that sent shivers down everyone’s spines.

Seeing Marilla and Jareth standing shoulder to shoulder, with Jareth holding her hand as if they were the only two people in the world, Glynnis felt a surge of anger and her mind went blank.

She thought, “Marilla, you little vixen! You dare to steal my man, I make sure you pay!”

“What the hell is going on? Why is Jareth with that dimwit? Tell me

Edith called her b*dyguard over, her eyes blazing with rage, “Didn’t I tell you to keep a close eye on her? How could you let her bump into Jareth?” “S-sorry, Ms. Edith. I did keep a close watch on her, but I didn’t expect Jareth to show up at

Sapphire Nights Club tonight. She was running around, it was bound to happen.” the b*dyguard stammered.

“Waste of space!”

Edith kicked the b*dyguard in frustration, but she lost her balance and fell to the ground, much to the amusement of her friends.

Meanwhile, Jareth, with a mischievous smile in his eyes, announced to the crowd, “Tonight, you all seem to be having a good time. How about we play a game? My little sister here has lost her teddy bear

As he spoke, a picture of the lost teddy bear appeared on the big screen. It was the one Marilla had taken earlier and saved on her phone.

The crowd was abuzz with chatter.

“Little sister? Doesn’t Jareth have a real sister, a renowned pianist? She doesn’t look like this.”

“Little sister equals potential girlfriend, huh? And you were just calling that old man brother. Are you distant relatives?”

“But this girl looks so young! Oh my! I hope she’s not underage!”

“You don’t know anything. Big shots like him love shy, bookish girls!”

Marilla heard the whispers, her cheeks fiushing with embarrassment. She tried to pull her hand away from Jareths, her first instinct always being to run.

But he held her clammy hand tightly, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t break free.

“Whoever finds the teddy bear tonight will get free drinks at Sapphire Nights Club for a year.”

His words sent the crowd into an uproar.

Jareth watched as Marilla’s deer-like eyes widened in surprise, a smile playing at the corners of his l*ps.

“Come, let’s wait in the VIP lounge. Your bear will be found soon!

Jareth led Marilla to another VIP room.

The room was full of men and women drinking and laughing, all friends Jareth had made in Elmsworth.

Seeing the unfamiliar faces and their physical contact, Marilla blushed and her face was as red as a ripe cherry. She wanted nothing more than to bury her head in the sand.

As soon as Jareth walked in with her, the room burst into whistles and cheers.

“Whoa, Marilla! You’re so young and you’ve already won Jareth over, impressive!”

1/2

Marilla was taker aback, her face paling.

“Shut up, all of you. This is my sister, and I won’t tolerate any nonsense!”

Their words kept pushing Marilla further into embarrassment, but Jareth’s protective stance was comforting.

“So Jareth, your little sister’s teddy bear must be expensive, huh? It’s worth a year’s free drinks at the Sapphire Nights Club, that’s at least a hundred grand. All for a teddy bear? You could buy a ton of them with that money!”

“My sister adores that teddy bear. It was a gift from my first love. It means a lot, you know? Not that you’d understand anything about sentimentality.” Jareth rolled his eyes, finding these rich brats thoroughly tiresome.

“First love? You mean my sister-in-law?” Marilla’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Yeah, I had a thing for your sister-in-law, Evadne was my first love, Jareth admitted with a smirk.

He had fallen hard for Evadne and even though he was dumped in the end, he felt proud to have loved such a remarkable woman. He would etch that into his tombstone if he had to.

But Manilla exploded, “No, no, no! You can’t have feelings for my sister-in-law! Evadne belongs to Thaddeus, and nob*dy can challenge that! You’re close with Thaddeus. How could you have eyes for his woman?”

Marilla stood firm, her fists clenched, “How heartbroken would Thaddeus be if he knew you were trying to steal Evadne from him? If you take my sister-in-law away, I will never talk to you again!”

Unable to find a better threat, Marilla said something childish and ridiculous.

A hush fell over the room before a wave of laughter erupted.

Marilla blushed, standing awkwardly and fiddling with the hem of her dress.

Jareth couldn’t help but chuckle at her discomfort, but soon silenced the crowd with a stern glance.

Just like that, everyone held their breath, not daring to mock Marilla anymore.

“Didn’t expect you to have such a strong moral compass, Marilla.”

Jareth leaned down, ruffiing her hair with a smirk, “Those who know would think you’re standing up for Thaddeus. Those who don’t might think you’re jealous.”

“Why would I be jealous? I don’t like anything bitter,” Marilla asked in all seriousness

Jareth was speechless.

Alright, he got it.

Manilla and him were from different worlds

However, her world had successfully caught his attention.

In the Sapphire Nights Club, the glamorous men and women were all in a frenzy to find Marilla’s beloved teddy bear.

Outside the private room was a large terrace.

While Jareth was inside with his friends, Marilla was alone on the terrace, nervously praying for someone to find her teddy bear.

1 found it! I found it!”

A woman jumped onto the stage, waving a teddy bear above her head.

“Holy crap, where did you find it?”

In the toilet tank in the men’s room!”

The men instinctively covered their crotches. When women got ruthless, it was no joke

Marilla jumped for joy, looking like a happy child.

“Well, that was faster than I expected. Money really does talk. They’d probably c tif they were paid enough, Jareth muttered. He lit cigarette in his hand, the

orange glow fiickering in the darkness.

“I need to get my teddy bear!”

Marilla was a bit scared of being alone with Jareth and tried to leave, but he blocked her way.

After the car accident that night, he had sworn to himself that he wouldn’t let her sl*p away again.

“No rush, your toy is wet. I asked that lady to dry it for you first before returning it,” Jareth said.

Marilla lowered her head, avoiding his beautiful eyes that were filled with amusement. She mumbled, “Thank you”

“Congratulations, madam, you’ve won a year’s worth of free drinks at the Sapphire Nights Club!” Lily announced, taking the teddy bear from the woman.

The woman was ecstatic, the crowd jealous.

Sapphire Nights Club was the most expensive club in all of Elmsworth, and to drink for free for a year?

That was enough to make anyone’s mother weep with joy!

Jayeth squinted his eyes, fiicking his cigarette and gesturing to Lily.

Understanding his signal, Lily loudly announced, “Thank you all for helping Marilla find her toy! Tonight’s bill is on Mr. Jareth!”
