Chapter 320


    “You ungrateful child! I’m your father, how dare you talk to me like that?” Jeff fumed, red in the


    face.


    If it weren’t for the room full of guests, he would’ve pped him right then and there! Their generation,


    except for Emeric, believed in the principle “The best need no teaching, the good need strict teaching,


    the worst need a good beating“. To deal with this little devil, he’d have to strip him down to his bones,


    skin him alive!


    “If you show respect to my mother, then I can maintain some semnce of a father–son rtionship.


    But if you don’t, then there’s more where that came from, just waiting for you.”


    Avery suddenlyughed, his lips curled upwards in a sarcastic smile, but his eyes were devoid of any


    humor.


    Heughed without mirth, a cold and cruelughter that even Jeff felt a chill down his spine!


    At the end of the hallway on the balcony, the Chambers men stood facing each other.


    The outside temperature was nothingpared to the icy tension between them.


    “What the hell do you want?” Jeff demanded, his face as cold as ice.


    “I didn’t know beforehand how much the gift you gave to Myra was worth. If you feel that my gift


    outshines yours and that I’ve embarrassed you, then I apologize.”


    Avery seemed indifferent, “After all, ignorance is innocence, right?


    I’m not talking about the gift!”


    Jeff took a step forward, the whites of his eyes turning red, “Why did you bring her here? Are you trying


    to piss me off, to humiljate me?”


    Averyughed loudly, tears ofughter streaming down his face, “I thought you were talking about


    something serious. Turns out it was this.”


    “Avery!” Jeff clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot.


    “My biological mother, the woman you once swore before God to love in sickness and in health, for


    richer or poorer, till death do you part. Now, in your eyes, is she nothing but a source of disgust?”


    Avery’s eyes were red with anger, “You abandoned my mother in Helgen for fifteen years without a


    care. Now that I have the means to take care of her, to provide for her, to make her happy, all you do is


    comin about how disgusting she is. I’ve tolerated your insults. That’s more than enough father–son


    affection.”


    “Bastard!”


    Jeff finally lost his temper, delivering a resounding p to Avery’s face!


    Avery’s pale cheek instantly reddened from the p, a stark contrast to his still–smiling lips and


    bloodthirsty eyes, “Dad, you’ve been looking rather weaktely. That p didn’t have nearly as much


    force as before. Are they not taking good care of you?”


    “Bastard! Shut up!”


    Jeff pointed a trembling finger at his defiant son, “Take your mother and leave immediately. If you don’t,


    I’ll send someone to take her back to Helgen!”


    “How dare you!”


    Avery’s fists clenched tightly, veins popping on his forehead, a stark contrast to the gentleman he was


    in front of Evadne. “Tonight, anyone who dares to touch my mother, I’ll kill them!”


    “You!” Jeff’s pupils constricted!


    He could feel a bone–chilling murderous intent emanating from his own son’s bloodshot eyes.


    “Anyone from the Chambers family who can be here, my mother can be too. And you’ve seen tonight,


    my mother and I, we are the honored guests of Miss Evadne. If you kick my mother out, you’ll be


    pping Evadne in the face.


    At that time, whatever ns you have, if you offend Evadne, I’m afraid they won’te to fruition.”


    Avery didn’t want to waste his breath on this ungrateful old man any longer and turned to leave.


    “I have never wronged your mother! She was the one who wronged me first, making me a cuckold! And


    because of that, I lost a daughter!”


    Jeff finally couldn’t hold back his anger anymore, “If she hadn’t been unsatisfied and cheated on me


    with some random man, she


    Chapter 320


    wouldn’t have miscarried! She could’ve been the respected wife of the chairman of the Chambers


    Group instead of aughingstock!”


    “I believe in my mother’s character. She loved you deeply. There’s no way she would’ve epted


    another man!”


    Avery was almost out of control, his shoulders shaking violently, his hoarse voice full of grief, “I’ve said


    countless times, it was Matthew, Byron, and Bertha, your most trusted and beloved children, who


    conspired against my mother! You didn’t investigate the truth, didn’t listen to my mother’s exnation,


    just casually sent her off to that hell. Marrying you was the biggest misfortune


    of her life!”


    “I’ve given her enough face by not divorcing when I sent her away! I saw it with my own eyes, I caught


    her in the act! What else does she have to say?” Jeff was infuriated, his face beet red.


    Every time he thought about that scandal, he wanted to strangle Mrs Chambers.


    And this little bastard in front of him!


    “Fool.”


    Avery sneered and turned around once more.


    In fact, he didn’t n to bring this up again, because that was a part of his mother’s humiliating past.


    Every time he mentioned it, his heart ached unbearably. This time, it was just brought up in the heat of


    the moment.


    He no longer expected Jeff to see the truth, to see the true faces of the three monsters he raised


    He didn’t care.


    Because they would all end up in hell, one after another.


    In the gorgeous and quiet room, an intoxicating amorous atmosphere lingered.


    Soft light filled the room, outlining the two intertwined figures.


    Evadne was held so tightly by the man that she was almost suffocating. She took a few deep breaths,


    her delicate body squirming in his arms, her cheeks flushed with heat.


    “If you don’t let go, I’ll really hit you!”


    Under such circumstances, even her anger seemed like coquettishness, her voice soft as a whisper


    “Evadne, would you really hit me?” Thaddeus rubbed his chin against her shoulder, his eyes half–


    closed, his gaze filled with desire.


    “What’s there to hesitate about? You’re not mine.” Evadne replied coldly, but the tingling sensation from


    the soles of her feet made her whole body numb.


    Thaddeus’s eyes were full of deep affection, his voice rough as he whispered, “After all, I am your


    savior.”


    Evadne’s eyes contracted slightly, a burning sensation in her chest


    That was right. He was her savior.


    What he didn’t know was that she had once been his savior


    Seeing Evadne fall silent, Thaddeus felt a twinge of panic and hastily tried to appease her


    “I’m sorry, Evadne. It’s all my fault. I’m nothing but a loyal dog, your loyal dog”


    Evadne bit her lip, barely suppressing augh Thaddeus, the golden boy of Elmsworth, was willing to


    be her dog? The women of Elmsworth would be green with envy if they heard about this!


    “Fine,” she finally responded, her yful side taking over “Bark for me then”


    It was both a joke and an insult. But at this point, she didn’t care about being cruel to him.


    “Ruff, ruff


    Evadne was taken aback, but Thaddeus barked again, his cheeks burning with embarrassment


    As long as it made Evadne happy, he was willing to bark all night


    “Thaddeus, have you lost your mind? Evadne asked, feeling embarrassed for him


    I don’t want to die, because then I won’t be able to see you anymore”


    With that, Thaddeus gently turned her towards him. His dark eyes were full of emotion, so raw and


    intense that she couldn’t hut look away.


    “Thaddeus.”


    Before she could finish her sentence, he took off his tie and held it out to her.


    “Evadne, take me home.”


    Evadne stared at the tie, trying to process what was happening.


    Thaddeus swallowed hard, his gaze fixed on her glossy lips as he leaned in.


    His vision blurred, his heart pounded.


    And then, her phone rang.


    Evadne pushed him away and answered her phone.


    “Jason? What’s wrong?”


    “Miss Evadne, where are you?” Jason’s voice was frantic.


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    “I’m at the hotel. What’s going on?” Evadne asked, her heart pounding.


    “It’s Myra, Something bad has happened!”


    “Tell me what happened to Myra!” Evadne demanded.


    Thaddeus tensed up at the mention of Myra’s name.


    “A few minutes ago, a bunch of old scandals about Myra from her entertainment days surfaced on


    Twitter and Tik Tok. There are news articles, photos, videos, everything!”


    Evadne’s heart sank, “What’s the public opinion?”


    “It’s spreading like wildfire!”


    “Does Myra know that?”


    “Of course she knows! And so does every media outlet in the city. They’re all swarming the Hotel as we


    speak!”


    Jason was practically shouting now, “Chairman Emeric is sending Myra and Ms. Nydia home. He wants


    you to escort them back to Skyrim. Chairman Emeric and President Ashbourne will stay behind at the


    banquet in Elmsworth to manage the situation. If we all leave, it’ll look like we have something to hide.”


    “I understand, I’ll find Myra and Nydia right away. You track down the source of those leaks!” Evadne’s


    voice was filled with fury.


    When she looked at the leaked photos and videos, she was shaking with rage.


    “Evadne, are you okay?”


    Just as Thaddeus was about to ask, Evadne suddenly shouted, “Stay out of it!”
