His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode
Chapter 169
Ca**ius, Arnold, and Aaron, all dressed up formally, along with their wives, were already welcoming Jeff and his second son, Byron Chambers.
âCa**ius, Arnold! You guys are getting more and more handsome. No, I got it wrong, I should call you President Ashbourne and Prosecutor Amold, night? Oh! Is this Suriâs little boy? Wow! The last time I saw him he was just a naughty, cute little boy, now heâs just so dashing. Heâs a talent at first sight. Where do you work now?â Chairman of the Chambers Group, Jeff, approached each of them warmly and greeted them with a handshake.
âIâm a police officer now, working in the Criminal Police Department.â Aaron replied with a smile.
âYouâre a con? Jeff seemed surprised, his eyes flickering.
In the eyes of this business tycoon, a cop was the lowest level of a civil servant with low income and dangerous, doing all the d*rty and tiring work. Most importantly, the opportunities for promotion were slim. He could at most become a senior officer, and that was where his career ended. It was far less valuable than taking over the family business.
âMy son is not so exceptional, sorry for the joke.â Suri showed a hint of embarra**ment, her youngest sonâs occupation had always been her concern.
After all, she came from the highest background of the three wives, although she had no intention of fighting for power and dividing the Ashbourne Group, she had a strong sense of family honor from a young age due to her original family, so naturally she hoped that her children were all outstanding and had very strict requirements on them.
But Aaron was not so ambitious, insisting on being a criminal policeman, not following the path she arranged for him, which really gave her a headache.
âSuri, youâre being too modest!â Aviana, outspoken, stepped forward and patted Aaron proudly on the shoulder, âWhere is Aaron not outstanding? At only 27, he has already made firstâcla** merits, three secondâcla** merits, and solved several major cases. Heâs the pride of our city police department!â
âNot only that, he is now the captain of the Criminal Police Department, and the youngest captain in their bureauâs history, Mr. Jeff.â Arnold didnât want the Chambers family to look down on his excellent younger brother and also helped to speak up.
âThatâs really promising!â Jeff had to laugh along.
Aaron, hearing his family praise him like this, was happier than when he was awarded. He smiled shyly and scratched his head.
âJeff!â Emeric walked up to them accompanied by Myra and Mr. Dylan, his eyes full of mischief, âItâs been so long since you came to see me. I thought you were sick and went abroad for treatment, afraid to see me.â
âYou have the nerve to say that!â Jeff strode forward, feigning anger, âTwo months ago I called you to go horse riding. You said you had something else and couldnât make it, right? In the past, whenever I mentioned horse riding, you would get excited. No matter what the weather, you would go with me. I was wondering if it was because youâre getting old and having trouble moving, having difficulties getting on the horse, so you didnât go with me, afraid I would laugh at you?â
âYouâre overthinking, Iâm in great shape!â
Emeric smiled. Although he was already sixty, his smile was still full of confidence, âWhen we both are old and in a nursing home, Iâll definitely be the one pushing your wheelchair! Just wait and see!â
Everyone couldnât help but laugh when they saw the two brothers arguing as soon as they met, just like before.
Tonight, Mr. Jeff was wearing a very refined, proper suit, a charcoal grey jacket with a silver white tie, looking very energetic.
But, unexpectedly, Emeric broke the norm and wore a snowâwhite silk long gown, the delicate dark pattern embroidery appeared very luxurious, yet casual. His hair on both sides was not white. His figure was upright, just like twenty years ago. It was really enviable!
Jeff and Emeric were both men who paid great attention to their appearance. They started caring about their clothes and skin care when they were young. This had been going on for more than twenty years, as if they wanted to push each other into the grave.
âMr. Emeric, hello.â Byron approached and greeted Emeric politely.
He and Avery were halfâbrothers, not very alike.
Mr. Avery was very handsome, even somewhat androgynous; while Byronâs features were more distinct, with long eyebrows flying into the temples, deepâset eyes, his gaze as sharp as his fatherâs, his figure slim yet rugged.
âOh! Byron, hello to you too!â
Emeric showed a loving smile to this younger generation, after all, he also watched the Chambers familyâs children grow up, âJeff, didnât you tell me you brought your younger son with you? I havenât seen him in many years, why didnât he come with you?â
The kid said he had something to do at the last minute and would be late.â
Jeff glanced around, puzzled, âEmeric, didnât you say Evadne would also be here tonight? how come I donât see her?â
âEvadne said she had something to deal with too. Sheâll rush back when sheâs done.â Emeric was also unclear about his daughterâs plans, but given her character, as long as she promised, she wouldnât break her promise.
âAh, Evadne wouldnât not come, would she? No, no! I came specifically to see Evadne!â Jeff started complaining, âIf I canât see Evadne tonight, I wonât leave!â Just as he finished speaking, the butlerâs voice came from outside the door, âMs. Evadne is back!â
âLook, Evadne is back.â
Emeric, hearing that his daughter was back, immediately showed a happy smile, his eyes full of doting light.
At this moment, everyone also turned their heads to look outside the door.
Jeffâs eyes lit up like a Christmas tree, craning his n*eck and peering expectantly outside.
Byron, who usually seemed chill as a cucumber, suddenly turned sharpâeyed. The big shot, surprisingly, even fiddled with his tie surreptitiously. His nerves were on edge.
âDad, Iâm home!â
A voice as sweet as honey came, cheerful and pleasant enough to melt hearts.
Evadne, bright as a spring blossom, walked in lightâfootedly, along with Avery, coming into everyoneâs view.
Everyone, including Emeric, seemed taken aback, except for Ca**ius.
Now, the expressions of the Chambers men tumed somewhat puzzling.
Jeff frowned while Byron clenched his jaw, his eyes frosty. A feeling of being tricked was brewing in his chest, making him tug at his tie in annoyance.
âMr. Emeric, Dad, sony for being late.â
Avery first looked deeply at Evadne, then bowed politely to the two elders.
âAvery, did you bump into Evadne at the door?â Jeffâs gaze darted back and forth between them, trying to probe.
âNo, Dad Avery started to smile slowly, his eyes full of affection as they rested on Evadneâs face. âI purposely went to pick up Evadne. We came here togetherâ
