His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1053

Cassius’s lashes were damp with tears, his heart feeling as if someone had gouged a hole straight through it. The grief was so raw, it nearly took his breath away.

Arnold noticed at once how pale his brother looked and hurried over, his voice tight with worry.

“Cassius, what’s wrong? Talk to me!”

“Evadne… she went to the airport. She went after Chasel,” Cassius murmured, his voice hollow and numb, a metallic taste of blood rising in his throat.

Arnold froze, his own heart sinking. “She went to the airport? Evadne went after him again? What on earth happened?”

Cassius couldn’t speak another word. His broad shoulders slumped, and he wavered where he stood, barely able to keep his balance.

Chasel was gone. Evadne had gotten into a car accident trying to chase after him—now she was battered and broken.

He’d sworn he’d protect them both. In the end, he’d failed them all…

Cassius turned away, his steps unsteady as he stumbled out of the hospital room.

Alarmed, Arnold rushed after him.

In the empty corridor, Cassius pressed his forehead against the cold wall, slamming it against the plaster again and again.

Tears streamed down his face, hitting the floor in heavy drops, darkening the linoleum in spreading rings.

“Cassius! What are you doing?!”

Arnold had never seen his brother unravel like this. He panicked, grabbing Cassius by the shoulders, trying to steady his trembling frame. “Please, tell me what happened! We’ll figure it out together, I promise!”

“There’s no Chasel anymore…”

Cassius’s forehead was raw and red. His eyes were unfocused, his voice broken, barely more than a whisper. “He… he broke up with me. He’s gone.”

Arnold stared at him in shock, drawing a sharp, cold breath.

...

Suri clenched her jaw, her eyes still rimmed with red. “Myra, at least he brought her to the hospital. Imagine if he hadn’t cared at all—that would’ve been truly terrifying.”

Myra Barlow Ashbourne’s elegant brows pinched in concern. “Let’s check the security cameras. After everything Evadne’s been through, we have to find the person who did this. We can’t just let it go.”

Aviana agreed at once. “Absolutely! I’ll have our team at S-Star Group investigate. We’ll track him down within three days, no matter what!”

Emeric turned back to his daughter, anxiety etched into every line of his face. “Evadne, where’s Thaddeus? You’re in this state, and your fiancé isn’t here with you? What’s going on?”

He had no idea what had happened earlier. All he knew was that his daughter had been unconscious for more than a day, and when she finally woke, it was Chad at her bedside, not Thaddeus. He couldn’t make sense of it at all.

Evadne’s heart skipped a beat. She forced herself to remain calm, swallowing the pain that threatened to spill from her dark eyes.

As she scrambled for a way to shield her father from the truth, Alexia spoke up, feigning surprise.

“Chairman Emeric, you mean you haven’t heard? Thaddeus and Evadne have broken up.”
