His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 189

Chapter 189

Seriously? Edith has managed to get her hands on a piece of jewelry even Ada, the top dog in the jewelry game, couldn’t snag?

Glynnis was shocked but played it cool and complimented. “Wow, Edith, you’re really something! If you can score Alea’s jewelry, Ada will surely come back to us. That way, we can get back at Evadne and do Thaddeus a solid. Plus, it’s gonna make you look like a hero in the Abernathy family. Your relationship with Thaddeus is bound to take a huge leap forward.”

Edith laughed with joy. “So we must snatch this project from Evadnel”

Glynnis agreed verbally, but her mind was working on something else

She didn’t want to help Thaddeus out. They weren’t exactly siblings. But this could be her moment to shine, and if she could snag the project lead from Thaddeus, she could really make a splash and impress her father, helping her mom’s declining reputation

And Edith was just the sidekick!

At this thought. Glynnis was thrilled. Her eyes sparkled with desire and her cheeks flushed.

“What a crap night! Thaddeus left halfway and my brother didn’t show up. It’s just terrible! I’m going to cut ties with him!” Edith complained, starting to throw a

tantrum

“Edith, your brother did come tonight. He just left again, Glynnis said coldly

“When?”

“When you were playing the piano. And not only that, he brought my little sister Marilla with him tonight. Thanks to Mr. Jareth’s company, my sister had the time of her life and was in the limelight.” Glynnis chuckled.

“Who? Your sister? That dimwit?”

Edith was shocked, unable to a**ociate her brother with Marilla, that imbecile.

She knew Marilla very well.

They were cla**mates in a prestigious girls‘ school back in middle school.

“Edith, I’m facing a double whammy even before I set foot in the Fairhaven family.” Glynnis sighed with frustration, her eyes filled with coldness, “Your brother might have feelings for my sister”

“What? That dimwit, she’s worthy of Jareth?” Edith stood up in anger, knocking over her wine gla**, her big eyes wide in disbelief.

Glynnis smirked internally but played the victim, “But you didn’t see it tonight. Mr. Jareth was really gentle to my sister. He not only bought her a new dress but kept saying he only cares for her. I’m almost jealous to tears.”

She thought with Jareth’s laid–back personality, he wouldn’t be genuine towards Marilla.

However, she chose this way to provoke Edith, wanting Edith to help her deal with Marilla, that cunning girl.

Upon hearing Glynnis’s description, Edith felt her fiery anger cool down a bit.

Then, she sat back down, picked up her gla**, and took a sip of wine. Her eyes flashed with a darkness that didn’t match her age.

Jareth was her brother, and no one knew him better than she did.

Based on Glynnis’s description, his attitude towards Marilla was indeed unusual.

This was impossible.

Back in school, she was the main bully towards Marilla, making her go through a tough period.

Even though many years had pa**ed, she didn’t think Marilla had forgiven her.

If Jareth really liked Marilla, even without the intention of marrying her, just being friendly, then Edith’s past wrongdoings could be exposed, and Marilla might use Jareth to revenge on her.

After some consideration, Edith gritted her teeth and said coldly, “Don’t worry, as long as I’m around, Marilla and my brother can’t be together.”

Meanwhile, at K World Hotel.

In a private room, there were ten dishes on the table, each a delicacy fit for a state banquet, the wine a rare vintage.

Ada Ang, as a foodie, was thoroughly enjoying the meal, her appetite was great.

Evadne and Jason were accompanying her, and Evadne was chatting happily with Ada in a fluent foreign language. She didn’t mention the wedding or the Abernathy Group, just chatting about movies and jewelry collections like old friends.

Everyone had a good time.

After the meal, Evadne and Jason walked Ada to the underground parking lot.

“Ms. Evadne, your dishes tonight were fantastic. They were unbelievable! There was a dessert that looked like a rose. It was so delicious! Your hotel’s chef is a genius!

That dessert is called rose apple pie. If you like it, I will make two boxes for you before you leave Elmsworth. One for you and one for your mother. Evadne said with a light smile.

“Ms. Ada, many of the dishes you had tonight, including the rose apple pie, were actually made by Ms. Evadne herself.” Jason finally found an opportunity to proudly introduce her cooking skills.

“What? Such complex desserts, really made by Ms. Evadne herself?” Ada was shocked, deeply touched.

She couldn’t believe such a lady from a rich family, a powerful woman in business, was also so talented in cooking. She even made such intricate desserts for her,

showing her sincerity

“Yes, but it’s not good enough Evadne was a little embarra**ed She was very humble.

14:22

Ada pondered for a moment, and then she suddenly laughed, “Ms. Evadne, did you bring the contract?”

Evadne and Jason exchanged glances, then asked in confusion, “Miss Ada, are you saying?”

“I want you guys at K World Hotel to plan my wedding. If that’s possible, I can sign the contract right now.”

Surprise flickered in Evadne’s eyes She was the type who looked cool as a cucumber, but her insides were doing a happy dance!

Jason was also over the moon, scrambling to get the contract from his briefcase, “Got it! We’ve been carrying it around!”

“Miss Ada Evadne took a deep breath, asking seriously. You asked us at K World Hotel and the Abernathy Group to find a designer who could make unique jewelry for you I haven’t been able to fulfill your request yet. So, I’m curious, why did you suddenly decide to have us plan your wedding?”

Jason blinked, he was also curious about this.

I

Ada closed her mouth gently, looking somewhat quilty. To be honest, at first, I didn’t really want either of you to plan my wedding. The reason I came to Elmsworth to hold my wedding was just to satisfy my mom’s wish So, from the beginning. I was skeptical about both of your hotels. Even tonight, accepting your invitation wasn’t really sincere I just made a random choice between you two For that, I must apologize. I shouldn’t have been so arrogant and looked down on you. After coming to Elmsworth, I realized that both you and Mr. Thaddeus are exceptional managers and rare talents. I believe either of you would plan an amazing wedding

“But why did you choose us then?”

“Ms. Evadne, when you gave me Twilight, I hadn’t decided to choose you either. It was after tasting the dishes you personally prepared for me. I was touched by your sincenty, so I chose to work with your hotel” Ada’s attitude at this moment was very sincere, every word she said to Evadne was heartfelt.

Evadne got it, but it still felt unbelievable.

It tumed out her culinary skills weren’t useless. They came through in the clutch!

As they settled into the car, Jason placed two contracts in front of them, grinning from ear to ear.

Before preparing to sign, Ada paused and said gently. “Ms. Evadne, could we add another condition at the end of the contract?”

“Of course, what’s the condition?” Evadne’s face was gentle, very patient, showing no signs of being flustered.

“I hope that the decoration of my wedding scene can be kept secret before the wedding. Not only to surprise my fans but also to give my mom a surprise. Can we

do that?”

“Absolutely, as long as it’s stipulated in the contract, we’ll make sure it happens.” Evadne had a gifted ability to put people at ease, giving a sense of reliability.

They both signed their names on the contract.

Seeing the names written on paper, Jason felt the rock that had been weighing on his heart was finally dropped.

Ada extended her hand to Evadne with a smile, “Looking forward to our cooperation, Ms. Evadne.”

Evadne’s slender but strong hand held hers tightly, her eyes sparkling with a luxurious light, “Looking forward to our cooperation.”
