After their marriage, Evangeline spent three lonely years dreaming of having a child with Walter. However, when he flaunted his old flame in front of her, she lost all hope. In front of his friends, she slammed the divorce papers down, declaring, "I'm done with you!" She figured there were plenty of men if she wanted a child. Besides, she was wealthy, beautiful, and the heir to a top financial empire. Shortly after the divorce, news of Evangeline offering a large sum for a sperm donor spread like wildfire in the capital's elite circles. "Divorced because her ex-husband was infertile, now offering one hundred fifty million dollars for a high-IQ, handsome, and skilled young man to father her child."

Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 686
In the past, Julia would not have batted an eye at whatever grand gesture Ethan made for her.However, things had changed. After pouring her heart out for Walter, only to have it wasted, how could she not feel a pang of guilt and a rush of gratitude when Ethan still stood by her side, ready to give his all?Ethan gently stroked her hair, his eyes soft with affection. "Julia, you shouldn't have to worry about this...""But I can't help it!" Julia's voice broke through her restraint, loud and clear. "Why should Walter get away with hurting me, and then turn around and manipulate you?"Ethan's eyes flickered shut for a moment, clearly done with the conversation. "Let's go home."Hand in hand, they made their way onto the plane at Meadowvale's private airstrip. Walter, bound by his deal with Ethan, had no choice but to bid them farewell.He watched the sleek private jet take off, his gaze deep and calculating, a sly smile playing on his lips. That was his first chess move against t

Julia gazed at the man's face, her mind wandering.Was it true? This man, who everyone looked up to, dropped everything—his work, his family duties—to be there, all because he did not want her to be alone?What kind of feeling was that?Whatever it was, just seeing what he had done was enough to stir any girl's heart.Even Julia, who had Walter in her thoughts, could not hide her emotions.Tears filled her eyes, and without a care for the watchful eyes of the bodyguard, she lunged into the man's embrace."Thank you. Thank you for still choosing to love me, Your Highness."She hardly ever used such formal titles for the guy, standing in front of her.Titles like 'duke' or 'viscount' from overseas just were not her thing. She even thought that using them created an invisible gap between people.However, right then, she felt compelled to use his title, as a reminder to herself of just how incredible he was.In Julia's eyes, Ethan Jefferson was infinitely better than Walter—by a

The diamond mines in Southern Crownlands were a gold mine, literally. Any official could name their price and be set for life. There was no way they would turn down a fortune that was practically in their hands.Unless... It was all because of the guy standing in front of Walter.As Walter locked eyes with him, the man casually threw up his hands. "No need to be suspicious. I gave him a ring before I came to see you. For a deal this big, he wouldn't dare call the shots without backup."Walter's stoic expression betrayed none of his thoughts, while the man in front of him seemed like he could not wait a second longer."Do you still have reservations? If you do, why don't you mull it over here while I go see Julia?" The man spoke as he casually opened his arms, allowing Walter's crew to give him a quick pat-down."Don't worry, I'm here to rescue, not to wreak havoc. Why would I bring anything dangerous?"Walter caught his bodyguard's eye with a meaningful glance.Getting the hint,

Just then…"No, you really do need to."The guy was dead serious, a determined glint in his ocean-blue eyes.Walter was lost for words, about to retort, when the guy went on, "I didn't come to fetch Julia without bringing something big to the table."He gave Walter a knowing look and a smug smile, like he was sure Walter would not turn him down."I'm offering the diamond mines of Southern Crownlands in exchange for Julia. Sounds like a sweet deal for you, Mr. Walter Gordon, right?"Walter's brow creased as he weighed the likelihood of that guy having any say over the diamond mines.Those mines were a big deal for the Bennison family, yet this guy was talking like it was a walk in the park, not something to be taken lightly."Do you even realize what you're suggesting?"Walter needed to make sure, but he kept the conversation going smoothly. "The diamond mines in Southern Crownlands are a big deal for the Bennison family, aren't they? Are you sure you're the one who can make th

"I don't want to see anyone, I'm not in the mood!" Walter snapped back without hesitation.Julia had pushed him to his limits, and he had no desire to talk to anyone else.The bodyguard persisted, "But sir, he claims he's here to take Ms. Julia Rearden with him. He insists he won't leave without seeing her."A rescuer for Julia?After her parents were gunned down, the only one left to shield her was probably the mysterious powerhouse backing her.The Bennison family!A spark of interest flickered in Walter's eyes. He composed himself and then commanded, "Show him in."With Julia under his control, there was no rush to leave. If that stranger had the guts to show up, he must believe he could take Julia from Walter's grasp.Well, Walter was eager to see just how much that person was willing to sacrifice to save her.The room was in disarray thanks to Julia's earlier struggle, but luckily, the living room was still spotless.Walter settled onto the sofa, waiting for his distingu

Was she not just using Evangeline's name?All she wanted was his love. How could that be wrong?However, the guy standing in front of her had no problem playing a game of life or death with her!Julia could not help it, she burst into wild laughter on the ground. Pushing herself up on shaky arms, she managed to sit up while Walter watched, his body shaking with anger."Julia, come clean now, and I swear you'll make it out of this alive," Walter threatened, his voice a low growl.He was not sure he could keep his composure if Julia kept up her stubborn act. Would he be able to let her off the hook again if that happened another time?However, Julia was not scared.Staring down Walter, who looked like he could breathe fire, she knew that being caught by him was a fate worse than death. So why play into his hands?"Tell me, Walter. Why don't you love me?" she challenged him.Julia knew she had put in as much effort as Evangeline ever did, so why had she not ever captured Walter's

When Walter made it clear he intended to make Julia his bride, Trey, defying everyone's expectations, managed to get Evangeline hitched to the Gordons.Just like that, Julia's dreams of marrying into high society crumbled to dust…Snapping back from her reverie, Julia locked eyes with Walter, his gaze dark with barely concealed anger."Julia, even now, you won't come clean, will you? Let it go."Walter sighed. He knew Julia was all too familiar with weaving tales of fiction, and offering her a chance to save face might not even appeal to her. Why go to the trouble?"You went into such detail about my rescue back then. You must know who my savior was, right? I'm not interested in digging up the past. I just want to know, who was it that saved me?"For years, Walter had been thanking the wrong person, and in doing so, he had hurt the one girl he truly cared about.What a total backfire!Regret swallowed Walter whole, but he knew he could not go easy on Julia. She was a handful, w

"Please, Ms. Rearden, don't be mad. We're in a tight spot here. See those bodyguards over there? They're with the Foster family. We're small fish in Avalon City, and the Fosters? They're sharks. Mr. Rearden made us swear to keep our heads down and steer clear of trouble."At the time, the Fosters' crew had just pulled Walter and Evangeline to safety.Both were out cold, but the Fosters only whisked Evangeline away, leaving Walter by himself, sprawled on the shore.Julia, curious about the lack of commotion, strolled over with her bodyguard to inspect the still-unconscious Walter. "Any of you know who this guy is?"She could not help but notice how handsome he was at first glance. Marrying him would be a dream come true.However, dreams were all they could be. The Reardens were nobodies in Avalon City, and their bodyguards would not know a VIP if they tripped over one. They had no clue who Walter really was.Julia sighed, a mix of disappointment and longing, as the bodyguard shook

How could he, Walter, have been so blind? To have mistaken his own lifesaver!Julia was losing her patience. "What do you really want to ask? When are you going to let me go?"A chilling laugh suddenly filled the air, making Julia's skin crawl.She remembered that laugh. It was the same one Walter had when he planned to send her off to Northern Montavia.Just as expected, a second later…"Julia, if you don't even recognize this keychain, how can you say you're my savior?"Walter's voice rumbled deep and rough, each word slicing through the air like it was forged in the depths of the underworld.Julia's mind snapped into focus, her eyes darting away in a guilty flinch. She could not bring herself to meet Walter's gaze."Walt, I was just... I was so ticked off when you yanked me up earlier that I didn't really look at it, okay? But staring at this keychain, it sort of rings a bell. Looks like the one I snagged from you way back."Her wavering voice was all the confirmation Walte

"Don't bother returning if you can't make Walter come home tonight, Evangeline!"It was New Year's Eve.Every home was aglow, families embracing the joy of togetherness. Evangeline Rearden, however, was excluded from the glee. She raced her heavy motorcycle down Jetty Road, cutting through the biting cold wind on a mission to expose Walter's infidelity aboard a cruise ship.The whole city buzzed with the news that her stay-away husband, Walter Gordon, has splurged on a cruise for his mistress, complete with a fireworks display.Still ringing in her ears was the harsh ultimatum her mother-in-law, Aria Jones, delivered at the Gordon family's New Year's Eve feast."Evangeline, Walter is so averse to seeing you that he hasn't come home for the holidays in years! You're just warming the bench. If you can't give us a Gordon heir, call it quits early.
