His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 945

Evadne flipped through the pages, her eyes narrowing as she focused—

The red stamp at the top of the document caught her eye, signaling its top-secret nature.

Snooping around in another country's secrets was undeniably dishonorable, inappropriate, and unacceptable. But it was too late; she had already opened it...

Soon, she discovered that these documents, likely submitted by the National Security Agency, contained information about high-level spies who had jeopardized the interests of the nation of Helgen over the years. These individuals, still at large, were yet to be apprehended.

These were no ordinary people; they were either born into privilege, industry elites, or high-ranking officials.

And the crimes they had committed were so heinous that executing them ten times over wouldn't suffice to account for their deeds.

Evadne, with her quick reading ability and excellent memory, was a natural-born spy.

She skimmed through the documents, memorizing their contents almost instantly.

When she reached the eleventh document, her gaze froze—

This one was different. Where there should have been a photo, there was none.

【Name: Dorothy Waverley

Age: 25

Formerly served as the captain of the Royal Guard and a member of Helgen's Special Operations. Convicted of stealing national secrets, colluding with the enemy, and betraying the organization, she was sentenced to death and later fled.】

Evadne stared at the words, her fingers tightening around the paper, her chest tightening as if she were drowning.

【This traitor has been at large for over thirty years. Despite extensive investigations leading nowhere and the statute of limitations expiring, it has been decided by the royal cabinet that no further criminal charges will be pursued. Awaiting the President's approval.】

The document was signed by the King of Helgen—Benedict, complete with the royal seal.

Yet Darcy, the President, had yet to sign, likely too preoccupied to do so.

"Evadne? Evadne?"

When Debby saw her staring blankly at the document, she called out to her, but got no response.

Evadne was fixated on the name on the document, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

A Helgen national, named Waverley, sentenced to death, fled at the age of 25, has been in hiding for thirty years...

Seeing Debby stowing away the documents, Evadne tried to speak, her voice strained:

"Sis, I..."

"What is it?"

Debby looked at her with concern, noticing her pale face, "Evadne, you look terrible. Are you not feeling well? Should I call the family doctor?"

"Sis... I, I..."

In that moment, Evadne's thoughts raced, but she eventually sighed resignedly, looking down, "I'm fine. Don't worry about me."

She thought hard about it and realized the gravity of the situation. It was not something she could discuss under these circumstances.

Firstly, her sister was the First Lady, and raising this issue could potentially be seen as a breach of confidentiality, damaging Darcy's reputation;

Secondly, if the person in the documents really was her mother, initiating an investigation now, especially on foreign soil and without preparation, could stir up trouble and even be exploited by Avery or others with malicious intent.

Though her mother had passed away years ago, her father was still alive. Capturing Avery was her priority; she couldn't afford to complicate matters further.
