Chapter 994

Thaddeus and Elvis, once you land on the island, hold off on making any moves. Take a look around, see if Evadne is truly there, and keep us in the loop. We’ll be joining you in stages to provide backup.”

The president spoke with a calm, steady rationality that was beyond the reach of ordinary men.

Indeed, Thaddeus had already considered what Darcy had mentioned, which is why he intended to stealthily make his way to the island alone, to search for Evadne.

He feared that causing a commotion might alert Avery, and he dreaded the thought of that madman harming Evadne.

“Thaddeus, Elvis, get ready. We’re heading out to sea.”

Cassius, his throat tight with emotion, stepped forward for a hug, embracing his brother and then him, “But promise us, you’ll come back safe!”

For Evadne, the past five days were akin to an earthly hell.

Unable to eat or drink, she became a gaunt, hauntingly beautiful figure, lying weakly on her bed. Her shoulder blades trembled delicately, like the wings of a butterfly poised for flight.

She was pitiful yet also heartbreakingly beautiful.

She wished she could always be cherished, without ever worrying about leaving.

Throughout these days, Evadne was on edge, daring only to nap lightly, afraid to fall into a deep sleep. She feared Avery might touch her.

So far, he had only held her, kissed her. But who could guarantee that the deranged lunatic wouldn’t suddenly decide to claim her?

In the early hours, under a dark and stormy sky, Avery injected himself with adrenaline in his study before dragging his weary body out.

Seeing Hans standing in the dim corridor, Avery stiffened, fighting the taste of blood that rose to his throat.

“Do you need something?”

“Your wedding’s off.”

Hans’s gaze was cold as he looked at Avery’s pallid face, “Someone sent word, your ROSE Island coordinates have been leaked. Ms. Evadne’s family and Thaddeus are likely on their way here.

Sir has ordered me to take Ms. Evadne away from here.”

Avery had never thought he could keep Evadne on the island forever.

He hoped, at least, they could spend his last days together. But he hadn’t anticipated Thaddeus and the others would find them so quickly.

Grinding his teeth in frustration, he swallowed his anger, “When?”

“The sooner, the better.”

“Just... Evadne?”

“You think you’re going too?”

Hans chuckled dryly, a grim smile playing on his lips, “Look at you now. Can you protect Ms. Evadne? You don’t have much time left. Can you still serve Sir?

This island, with its beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, is suited for both joyous and somber occasions.”

Was this the end for him?

Cruel, but he had no right to complain. To Sir, he was now just a burden.

It was time for him to go quietly.

“There’s a typhoon at sea right now. You can’t leave just yet.”

Avery, mustering his energy, met Hans’s gaze with a chilling look, “If you want to die, that’s on you. Don’t drag my Evadne into it.”

“Don’t worry. What Sir wants, even at the cost of my life, I’ll ensure she reaches him.”

Hans glanced at his watch, “By dawn, I’ll take Ms. Evadne away.”

“Enough...”

“What?”

Avery, clutching his chest, leaned against the wall, slowly making his way to the bedroom.

Hans watched his feeble departure, a flicker of incomprehension crossing his face.

...

In the darkness, listening to the howling wind, Evadne struggled against her drowsiness. Just as she closed her eyes, a hoarse voice called out:

“Evadne.”

It was Avery’s voice.

Shocked awake, her silk nightgown soaked with cold sweat clinging to her form, she tried to escape, but his icy grip caught her ankle, pulling her beneath him.

Then, lifting her by her waist, he drew her tightly into his embrace.

“No need to dress up, my Evadne. You’re naturally beautiful...always stunning,” Avery whispered against her ear, his voice husky and warm, sending shivers down her spine.

“What... what are you doing?” Evadne trembled against his chest.

“Getting married.”

As Avery’s lips trailed down her neck, his gaze bloodshot, he pressed each word into her heart, “Marry me, Evadne, and let’s have our wedding.”
