Chapter 485 

Some were down on their luck, others riding high

Avery put on a show of concern, pacing the living room with feigned anxiety, his posture straight, his expression grave

Damn, we just got rid of that Unfaithful Thaddeus, and now we’ve got Snaky Avery on our doorstep! What kind of bad karma has our little sis racked up? Did she sell out her country in a past life?!” 

Arnold and Cassius watched from the secondfloor landing, the former seething with a gnawing irritation. Cassius glared at Avery’s alltoofamiliar theatrics; his grip on the banister was so tight veins stood out on his hand

At such a grand dinner, as the star of the Chambers Group, he’s a noshow. But the moment Evadne has a crisis, he can’t wait to jump into the fray. Humph, with my years as a prosecutor, I’d bet tonight’s drama has Snaky Avery’s fingerprints all over it. Probably in cahoots with Edith, using that wicked girl as a pawn!” 

Your analysis is spoton. But he’s cunning, and knows how to use others to do his dirty work.” 

Cassius’s cold gaze locked onto Avery’s face, Before he makes his move, he’s already plotting his escape route. No doubt, he’s cleared his tracks. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be here so brazenly tonight. He must think he’s safe and sound.” 

Son of a gun, it’s not with the best of intentions, means no good!” 

Arnold exhaled his frustration, All of us brothers, strong as we are, can’t seem to lay a finger on that devil!” 

Just then, Emeric approached Avery, flanked by Myra and Dylan

Mr. Ashbourne, Mrs. Ashbourne.” 

Avery quickly stood up and bowed, the epitome of politeness and the kind of kid that parents adored

Mr. Chambers, my daughter isn’t feeling well and isn’t up to receiving visitors.” 

Seeing Emeric’s poor state, Myra spoke on his behalf, And after the unpleasantness at tonight’s event, which you must have heard about, we’re really not in the mood for guests. Please, see yourself out.” 

Avery’s eyes darkened at Myra’s dismissal, his fingers clenched in barely concealed frustration, yet he managed to keep his composure, I heard about Evadne’s condition and couldn’t rest, so I rushed over to see her. Mr. Ashbourne, don’t worry. I know a few renowned doctors in Helgen. If the local physicians are at a loss, I can invite them to Skyrim to consult on Evadne’s case!” 

Avery” 

Emeric spoke up abruptly, his voice heavy, We appreciate your concern. But right now, you’re Nydia’s fiancé. No matter how close you and Evadne grew up, it’s time you focused your attention on Nydia. You need to keep your distance from Evadne.” 

Averywas shocked, his complexion paling

Ha, that’s right!” 

Arnold couldn’t help but feel victorious, After all his scheming, he still can’t have our sister. His plans have come to nothing. Outsmarted by his own cleverness!” 

Mr. Ashbourne, the person I’ve always wanted to marry is Evadne! I`never intended to marry anyone else!Avery declared, his gaze intense and unashamed

Myra was taken aback, l*ps pressed tightly in embarrassment

What are you saying?” 

Emeric’s eyebrows furrowed, his voice deepening, Mr. Chambers, my daughters are not commodities for you to pick and choose from at will. We agreed on Nydia, and it’s going to be Nydia. Don’t bring up things between you and Evadne again!” 

Mr. Ashbourne, you know how I feel about Evadne. It’s as clear as day.” 

Despite Avery’s duplicitous nature, his love for Evadne was true, and so was the passionate plea in his eyes, I never had a choice in the alliance or who to be allied with! And you know, I only conceded because I thought Evadne had found happiness. But do you really think that Thaddeus is a good match for her now?!” 

Emeric’s breath halted, the pain of his daughter’s permanent scar shaking his vision

Before, I failed to protect Evadne, letting her suffer. From now on, I will only protect her, never betray her like Thaddeus did, never hurt her.” 

Avery’s eyes brimmed with tears, his voice hoarse with emotion, Mr. Ashbourne, please, let me marry Evadne. I will never let her go through that again.” 

Dream on, byddy! Dreams are where you can have it all!” 

As Cassius and Arnold descended the stairs side by side, Avery’s eyes gleamed maliciously, his jaw clenched tight

Dad! Don’t be fooled by this guy’s act; he’s no good! Who knows if he colluded with Edith tonight, aiming to steal love and take advantage of a vulnerable moment!Arnold, ever the straight shooter, lacked his big brother’s composure and was ready to tear down Avery’s facade

Emeric and Myra were both taken aback, in disbelief

Arnold, I know you don’t like me; you know I love Evadne so much, but that doesn’t mean you can tarnish my personality as you like.Avery gently pushed his glasses, Edith and I have no connections. The only one was at the horse racing event when she made trouble for Evadne, and I helped her to get out of it. That’s all. You’re Evadne’s brothers, and I won’t take it personally today. But I hope there’s no second time.” 

What the heck! If his father and Myra were there, Arnold would hurl insults at him. That guy surely knew how to play the victim

Arnold, don’t make baseless accusations,Emeric cautioned, his eyes a complex mix of emotions

Arnold was desperate to step forward but was held back by Cassius’s timely grip on his arm

Mr. Chambers, you fancy tying the knot with Evadne? Not a chance. And your brother Byron, dreaming of making Nydia his bride? Forget about it!” 

When Cassius dropped this bombshell, both Emeric and Myra were stunned into silence. Avery’s brows knitted together in a sudden frown, a storm of doubts brewing in his mind

Chairman Ashbourne! Mr. Jeff Chambers’s here to see you!The butler announced, panting from the urgency

Jeff? At this hour?Emeric was taken aback, glancing at his watch

Jeff wasn’t alone on his visit to the Ashbourne family; he had brought along his eldest son Matthew, which certainly added to the gravity of the situation

Cassius! What in the world did you do to our boy? How dare you treat Byron like this? You’re crossing the line!Jeff stormed into the living room, his cheeks twitching with rage, You do this, it’s like twisting a knife in my gut!” 

A cold shadow fell over Cassius’s steely visage, his eyes halfclosed, glinting with a fierce light. He was ready for trouble from the Chambers Group he had, after all, been the one to send Byron to the police station after taking care of the aftermath for Evadne and Jason

Cassius, what in the world is going on? What have you done to Byron?Emeric was completely baffled

Jeff’s outburst had also summoned Suri and Aviana’to the scene

Chairman Ashbourne, President Ashbourne had Byron thrown in jail, and now he wants to press rape charges against him!” 

Matthew ground his teeth in anger, I don’t know if this was his own doing or if your daughter masterminded the whole thing! Do they think we’re easy targets because my brother’s handicapped, that they can just crush him to death?” 

Rape charges? Everyone, except for Cassius, was taken aback

Avery’s expression darkened as he slowly pushed up his glasses, understanding the situation immediately. This was Byron and Bertha’s scheme unraveling, their plot exposed by Cassius. Not only had Byron failed to get Nydia, but he had also landed himself in deep trouble

A fool, that was what he was. If only he had known they were incapable of handling even this, he should have given them a push right from the start

Jeff was so furious he could barely breathe, and Matthew had to support his father, glaring daggers at Cassius, If you didn’t want this union, you could have just said so! Using such despicable means against Byron, is this your socalled nobility?!” 

Before Cassius could reply, Aviana exploded, Who are you calling despicable?!” 

Emeric jumped, startled. That was the daughter of the formidable SStar Group indeed roaring like a lioness

Your dad’s known Emeric for thirty years. Don’t you have any fricking idea what our family stands for? If you couldn’t trust us, why did you come knocking on our door in the first place?” 

Aviana’s tirade grew more fierce, her posture commanding, Do you think the Ashbourne girls are desperate, that we have to fill the holes in the Chambers family? Since you doubt our family, perhaps it’s best to call off the engagement! To think you would dare speak to us like that it’s as disgusting as a toad lusting after a swan!” 

Matthew bit back the word shrewas it came to his l*ps, his pride preventing him from stooping to Aviana’s level

Jeff’s blood pressure skyrocketed. He was at a loss; how could a simple dinner escalate to his son being in jail, a suspect in a crime? It was outrageous

Myra was on edge, her forehead dotted with sweat. Rape? Who had Byron assaulted? Could it be

She recalled her daughter had been locked away in her room since coming home, claiming to be unwell and refusing to come out. As a mother, her worst fears were taking hold, her breath growing shallow

Mr. Jeff Chambers, we understand your concern for your son.” Suri pulled the furious Aviana back, her eyes emotionless, But if Byron ended up in police custody because of Cassius, then he must have done something wrong. Instead of seeking explanations here, maybe you should get Byron a good lawyer.” 

Ah, Suri’s right!Arnold chimed in with sarcasm dripping from every word, The Dempsey family’s golden boy, Cedric, might be willing to take the case. He’s known for his dirty tricks and greed, perfect for handling a case like Byron’s. But then, Cedric’s quite busy cleaning up after Elspeth, so who knows if he’ll have the time for you.” 

The Chambers men were fuming, their pride wounded by the sharp tongues of the Ashbourne family who stood united like a fortress

Avery’s pale face took on a frosty sheen. If things escalated further, it could disrupt his plans. At this critical moment, he couldn’t afford to take sides and had to remain unseen, or it would work against him

Anyway, Byron would never do such a thing! There must be a mistake! A setup!Jeff glared at Cassius, though his words were directed at Emeric, Chairman Ashbourne, President Ashbourne must personally ensure Byron is released from custody tonight and drop the charges! Otherwise, the Chambers Group will see this through to the end with the Ashbourne family!” 

Emeric’s expression grew stern, his gaze intense, Cassius, what exactly happened to Byron? I need an explanation from you!” 

Expecting my brother to fetch that beast from jail? Wanting us to drop the charges? Ha, dream on!” 

All eyes followed the voice

Descending the grand staircase was a figure of noble pride and grace, Evadne, leading the way with Bennett, her silent knight, following closely behind like a guardian of the queen
