His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 959

"Oh, my dear... Yes, seeing you just makes everything better." Mrs. Chambers' words trembled through the air, her body shivering slightly as if she were cold.

Without hesitation, Evadne shrugged off her blazer and draped it over Mrs. Chambers' slender shoulders.

"Evadne, come here, I have something for you."

Mrs. Chambers' gaze, warm and intense, captured Evadne's wrist, and without a word, she slipped a jade bracelet over her fingers.

"Mrs. Chambers, I can't accept this!"

The coolness of the jade made Evadne's skin crawl, and she immediately tried to remove it, only to have Mrs. Chambers grasp her hand tightly:

"Evadne, Ave loves you dearly, and so do I. I don't have much to offer, but if you wouldn't mind, please accept this. If you don't like it, I won't press any further."

Evadne's face twisted in discomfort. "Mrs. Chambers, I..."

"Today, I asked Ave to find someone to help me get all dolled up. I wanted to look my best when I met my future daughter-in-law... to not look too shabby." Mrs. Chambers' lips trembled, her eyes filled with the joy of meeting a new family member.

It had been many years since she had smiled genuinely from the heart.

Mrs. Chambers clutched Evadne's cold hand tightly, her tear-filled eyes filled with sorrow. "But now, I can finally rest easy, because... he has you! Even if one day, I pass away, with you by his side, Ave won't be all alone!"

Evadne was utterly astonished, her mind a complete blank.

"Evadne... promise me, stay with Ave. Will you?" Mrs. Chambers pleaded, her voice nothing but a whisper.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Chambers."

Evadne steadied her tumultuous heart and slowly, but firmly, pulled her hand from Mrs. Chambers' frail grasp. "I don't love your son, and I can never be with him. Moreover, I already have a husband, and we love each other deeply, till death do us part."
