His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1065

Alexia knelt gracefully beside the coffee table, her movements deft and practiced as she performed the ritual of serving tea. With a cold laugh, she said, “Honestly, I’ve known Thaddeus since we were kids, and I’ve rarely seen him so down and out—so utterly defeated. I suppose today’s a real eye-opener.”

Chad’s long, slender fingers lifted the steaming teacup. His voice was calm, almost indifferent.

“When Hans lost his memory in that plane crash years ago, I only gave him a single black pill to suppress his emotions. But my brother? He dared to swallow three at once. That kind of nerve is almost impressive.”

He took a slow sip, his gaze distant.

“If he didn’t have such a strong constitution, he never would’ve survived it. For most people, taking that much would leave them in a vegetative state.”

Alexia’s heart skipped a beat. “Does that mean he’ll keep having these episodes?”

“For now, it only happens when he’s emotionally triggered,” Chad replied. “But eventually, the headaches will become constant. He’ll have to rely on medication just to function—and that dependency will only grow stronger.”

Alexia frowned. “Isn’t that...basically like being addicted to drugs?”

Chad’s lips curled in a secretive smile. “My brother has always been a hopeless romantic. Who would’ve thought, even after three pills, he still can’t let her go? Earlier today, I made it clear—right in front of him—that I intend to pursue Evadne. He looked completely unbothered, but judging by tonight, it hit a nerve after all.”

He set his cup down, a glint of amusement in his eyes. “Looks like we can’t let him quit the pills just yet.”

Alexia hesitated, noticing the subtle cheerfulness Chad had worn since she’d entered. Unable to resist, she probed gently,

“Sir, you seem to be in a good mood tonight. Did something happen?”
