His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1060

All three brothers looked startled.

Evadne’s expression remained calm, but her tone had softened noticeably.

Gone was that icy, unapproachable reserve she reserved for every man except her brothers and Thaddeus—a cold indifference that kept the world at arm’s length.

Could it be that the accident had shaken something loose in her, changed her outlook, even her temperament?

With a clenched jaw, Arnold had no choice but to let the man inside.

“Thank you,” Chad said politely.

With an easy, springtime smile, Chad maneuvered his wheelchair to Evadne’s bedside and set a thermos on the nightstand.

Evadne pressed her pale lips together. “You’re very considerate, Mr. Chad, but I’m really not hungry right now.”

A gentle light sparked in Chad’s refined eyes. He smiled, his voice warm. “You skipped breakfast and lunch, Ms. Evadne. Are you sure you’re not hungry?”

Evadne’s amber eyes widened. “How... how do you know that?”

“I’m in the room next door. I’ve been waiting for you to wake up.”

Chad dropped his gaze, a little sheepish. “I know you’re not lacking caretakers. I stayed for two reasons: it makes my follow-up appointments easier, and I thought I could help keep an eye on you.

I’ve already brought together the best surgeons in the country here in Elmsworth. They’re ready to consult on your case. I promise, I’ll do everything in my power to see you make a full recovery. You won’t have to worry about any lingering problems—not now, not ever.”

The Ashbourne boys exchanged glances, their eyes full of unspoken meaning.

Evadne’s reply was calm and cool. “Thank you, but I don’t think that’s necessary. I am a surgeon myself, after all.”

Chad’s smile deepened, his baritone easy and persuasive. “I know. The whole medical community knows Dr. Eve. But you know what they say—a doctor can’t treat herself.”

He leaned in just a little, voice softer. “Ms. Evadne, everyone knows you’re brilliant and strong—a real wonder woman. But even you need to rest sometimes. You have to give yourself permission to let go, and let others help. Don’t push yourself so hard.

I can see how tired you are. Why not use this time in the hospital to truly rest, just for a little while?”
