Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 135
Evangeline struggled to keep her cool, trying her best to sound normal. She never thought waiting for an assistant to drop off some papers could feel like an eternity.Again, the office door clicked shut.After a heart-pounding and totally unique experience, Evangeline slumped into her chair, feeling the dampness that told its own story of her longing.Out of nowhere, she was yanked from her chair to the floor. Walter's heavy, muscular frame was on her in an instant, careful not to crush her, yet making her acutely aware of his presence."I can let the newspaper slander slide," he murmured, his breath warm against her ear, "but you're going to have to put out the fire you started… Meet you tonight, at my place."Evangeline shoved at his solid form. "In your dreams!"Walter, as if playing a game, pressed down a little more. "You'll be there."He stood up abruptly, not even fixing his clothes, and strode out of the office.All the way down the hall, under the watchful eyes of the

In the fancy restaurant, Evangeline and Hank set down their wine glasses, laughing and sharing stories from when they were kids.The candlelight flickered across Evangeline's face, highlighting her flawless makeup. She was breathtaking, and her dark red checkered dress only added to her sophisticated allure.Hank was a chatterbox, always knowing just what to say to get a big laugh out of Evangeline.Whenever he did, Evangeline felt a thrill she had not felt in ages.Everyone said a great marriage should make life even sweeter. If there was only pain, however, then it was clear as day—that marriage was a mistake.She was getting more caught up in the evening by the minute.Then, out of nowhere, her phone buzzed with a notification.It was Walter.[If you don't show up, I'll have no choice but to prove my point by releasing this video.]Beneath the message was a clip.The thumbnail showed her, cheeks rosy and looking utterly smitten.The background was unmistakable—it had been

The room was pitch dark except for the glow of Walter's cigarette. Evangeline stumbled to switch on the light, marched up to him, and demanded, "Walter, hand over that video now!"Walter let out a ring of smoke and laughed softly. "Why should I give it to you just because you say so?" He nodded toward the bathroom and ordered, "Go take a shower."He could not stand her smelling like another man."Why should I listen to you?" Evangeline snapped back, her anger boiling over with no outlet. "Fine, don't shower. I'll do it for you!" Before she knew it, Walter had scooped her up and tossed her into the bathtub, already filled with water.Walter's grip was like iron around Evangeline, pinning her in the bathtub with the water lapping at her chin. She tried to speak, but her words were drowned out by his relentless questioning."Going out to dinner dressed to kill, huh? What were you up to with that pretty boy?"His eyes, dark as a stormy night, squinted with a smile that was anything b

Walter did not wait for her to respond. He pulled Evangeline back to the bed and wrapped his arm around her, holding her close.Evangeline instinctively tried to wriggle free. "I'm really tired, I don't want—"Walter's head was filled with nonsense, and she was so over it!"What do you think? I've had a long day too. You think I'm not tired? Stay still, let's just sleep."Walter loosened his grip a bit, and Evangeline found a more comfortable spot to settle into. She only relaxed completely when she saw he really was not going to do anything else.Sleeping in Walter's arms was a brand-new feeling for her, and it was... incredibly special.Her heart raced, and she could not stop the tears that welled up in her eyes.She had expected to lie awake all night, but his arms were just too cozy, radiating the perfect warmth, and sleep came without asking.When Evangeline woke up, the morning was well underway.She bolted upright in bed to find the other side cold and empty. Walter mus

"What's up with my mouth?"Walter, caught in the middle of his culinary endeavors, stopped and glanced at her face. "I couldn't help myself."He said it with such nonchalance. It was as if he were commenting on the weather, not admitting to a stolen kiss.Then, without missing a beat, he went right back to his cooking.Evangeline just stood there, utterly flabbergasted.Walter's carefree attitude was really getting under her skin!"You're the worst. Look at what you've done to me! How am I supposed to show my face outside?"She stormed up to Walter, ready to give him a piece of her mind.She did not see it coming.As she stood there, Walter just leaned in, trapping her against the wall.Evangeline's eyes went wide. Was she... just pinned against the wall?"And let's not forget, you grabbed me out of nowhere last night, I almost had a major scandal on my hands!""That's a lie!"Evangeline tried to argue back, but Walter's hand was suddenly over her mouth.His voice was low

Six dishes and one soup, all made by Walter himself.Evangeline stared at the feast before her, utterly gobsmacked.Who would have guessed that the high-and-mighty young master of the Gordon family could whip up a storm in the kitchen?Walter noticed Evangeline spacing out again, her food untouched, and he reached over to load up her plate. "You've got to eat up if you're thinking about kids. You can't make a baby if you're malnourished."Evangeline stared at the braised vegetables in her bowl.Seriously? Was Walter on a mission to fatten her up for baby-making?Then, she heard him add, "We should swing by the hospital later for a full check-up. If all's well, we can start planning for a little one."Before Evangeline could even process this, her phone buzzed to life. It was Cole calling."Evie, Asher is on his way to Crystal Waters House to fetch you. You're due for a pre-baby doctor's visit," he said.With Trey and Walter watching, Evangeline's toes curled in embarrassment.
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 141
Evangeline was practically squirming as she listened to the doctor's instructions.The doctor was so thorough that she covered everything down to the exact posture. She stopped just short of giving a play-by-play on how to get it on.While Evangeline was busy trying not to curl up from embarrassment, Walter did not even bat an eyelash. Even with the doctor diving into super private stuff, the guy did not so much as blush. Seriously?This pre-baby appointment was turning into an epic disaster.The second the doctor wrapped up, Evangeline bolted like her shoes were on fire.Walking down the hospital corridor, Evangeline and Walter were a few steps apart. They were kind of a big deal, and their presence set off a buzz among the onlookers.As Evangeline walked by, she caught a snippet of conversation from a couple of gossiping doctors and nurses."Isn't that Mr. Walter Gordon of Gordon Group? Some numbskull must've spread a dumb rumor about him being impotent. He looks perfectly cap
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 142
The pressure was light, almost delicate, yet it bore down on Walter's arm with an unexpected force.Walter had no grounds to hold Evangeline back, but the thought of that guy back at the office, the one with the suave aura and those eyes full of unspoken words whenever they landed on Evangeline, sent a shadow across Walter's face.Caught off guard for just a split second, his arm gave way under her gentle insistence. Evangeline turned, her movements fluid and graceful, and slipped into her car. With a swift start, the vehicle darted away, leaving nothing but a trail of dust.Was Evangeline really in such a rush to get back? Was this Hank guy so important that she could not stay away?Walter spun to find his assistant, David, already at his side."Mr. Walter Gordon, heading back to the office?" Walter had told David earlier that he would dedicate the whole day to his wife's medical appointment.He had not expected her to leave the hospital so soon, though.Walter shot David a coo
