Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 256
Evangeline's gaze hardened into a look that could kill, though clearly not meant for Caden. After all, without his heads-up, she would not have found Walter so fast.All she wanted was to cut off Walter's manhood, to save him from his mess…Then it hit her—Walter's outrageous behavior was meant for her to see.A live show from Walter of the Gordon family was not something she could stumble upon every day. If she caught it on video and posted it online, would she not rake in a whole bunch of new fans?Evangeline did not hesitate and reached for her phone, but in the few seconds she had been lost in thought, the lively room had emptied out. Caden had slipped away when she was not looking.With that, the once noisy space was eerily silent, with just Evangeline and Walter left.Walter somehow found the energy to sit up from the couch, but he was so weak he ended up leaning heavily against Evangeline's shoulder. Evangeline gave a firm shrug. "Walter, snap out of it! If you want to sle

"What's gotten into you?"Evangeline snapped, but Walter's bold proposal replayed in her mind, hard to shake off.Seeing Walter's silly, expectant grin, she suddenly felt a playful urge to mess with him.Considering Walter was usually like a ticking bomb, who would have ever dared to tease him?Things were different. Walter, with his goofy, drunken grin, was just too adorable."Walter, you said you're going to marry me, right? Is that for real?" She boldly pinched Walter's ear, her tone dripping with confidence.In the past, she would not have dared to be so forward.Walter would not remember a thing tomorrow though, so she had nothing to worry about."Yep!" Walter nodded eagerly, like a kid waiting for Evangeline to hand over a piece of candy.He was just too cute!His good looks combined with that expression made Evangeline's heart turn to mush.She stroked her chin, feigning indifference, and asked, "So, what's good about you, huh?""Good about me?" Walter's eyes clouded

Walter's claim was fierce and bossy. His eyes, red and piercing, locked onto Evangeline as if she belonged to him and him alone. Evangeline froze, her heart skipping a beat.How much better would things be if Walter said these words when he was sober? Life never dealt in what-ifs though.Evangeline's eyes fell, and a pang of guilt hit her. She had not meant to tease Walter, not really. She wanted to see him stumble a bit, but somehow, she was the one who ended up getting hurt.She swatted Walter's hand away with a sharp smack and barked out her command. "Can you walk or not? If you can, then get yourself home—now!"The clock had already struck eleven, deep into the night.Evangeline checked the time and, with a heavy sigh, decided to change course. Trey, with his years piling up, would worry himself sick if he knew Walter was very intoxicated.She was not planning on bringing Walter to her place either.Mulling over her options, Evangeline let out a sigh and picked a path at the

Evangeline found Walter snoozing away nude. There was no way she could haul him into bed all by myself."Walter, come on, wake up! If you want to sleep, do it in your room, in a proper bed!"Walter blinked his eyes open, all dazed. What he saw was Evangeline looking down at him with this weird, worried expression.Was he still dreaming? Or maybe he was thinking about the wrong person?They had just had a massive blow-up, so why on earth would Evangeline be fussing over him?He could not believe it and his eyes went wide, his throat bobbing."E—Evangeline?""Who else? Get a move on, will you?"Evangeline gave him an eye roll for the ages, all the while grumbling to herself."I must've been in your debt in a past life or something. It's the middle of the night and I'm not at home sleeping, but out at a bar picking up a lush like you! Only a total brain glitch would make me do something this dumb!"Evangeline, with her slim arms, tried to drag Walter with all the strength she co

As Walter's kisses became more intense, Evangeline's will to fight back kicked in. Panicked, she reached out and gave Walter a fierce pinch under his arm.They sprang apart as if shocked by a bolt of electricity. Walter's dark eyes locked onto her, his breaths coming in heavy gasps. It was only then that Evangeline noticed her shirt buttons had been undone without her realizing it, her chest boldly on display for Walter."Walter, are you an animal? Is there nothing else in your head but this?" Evangeline was livid. Despite being sick and drunk, he just would not keep it together. What made her blood boil was how she herself had been so rattled by his kiss that she nearly lost all sense of reason!That little scuffle seemed to snap Walter out of it. He thought about their earlier fight, about Alex, the elephant in the room, and found himself at a loss for words.Walter was not one to trouble himself, so he silently stepped out of the tub. He dried off, slipped into a robe, and colla

Walter grumbled, clearly annoyed."Come on, you wake up to someone staring you down and you're telling me you wouldn't freak out?"Evangeline was fuming. Not only was Walter not owning up to his odd behaviors, but he was also calling her out for being jumpy!"If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear, right? What's so scary about a little stare?" Walter retorted nonchalantly, but then he casually let his bathrobe fall open in front of Evangeline."Evangeline, I need a good explanation for this!"Evangeline was about to shield her eyes from Walter, the flasher, but his words stopped her cold. She had to see what he was getting at.Pointing a finger at the marks on his tempting neck, Walter did not mince words, "What's the story with these marks? You know exactly what I'm talking about, don't you? I was with you the whole night, so I think you owe me some answers about what you did when I was out cold last night!"Evangeline's eyes widened as she followed the direct

Walter's brow was a battlefield of creases. Something about Evangeline's story did not add up. However, the memories of last night were like a movie on repeat in his head, and he could not argue with the playback.Was he really going to confess that seeing Evangeline and Alex all lovey-dovey made him so mad that he dragged Caden out to find some company?He stood up and faced himself in the mirror, staring at the marks on his neck with a mix of anger and nausea.This woman who dared to mark him—she was in for it!"Enough, let's eat," he said, dropping the subject.Walter knew he was at fault and decided to let it go.Evangeline was not interested in rehashing the night either. Actually, she did not want to speak to Walter at all, not one single word.Evangeline's stomach rumbled as she finished freshening up. She had planned to slip away quietly, but the delicious smells wafting from the dining room rooted her to the spot.Walter set the last dish on the table and, with a swift

Alex was on the staff at Avalon University, something Walter was well aware of, so Evangeline braced herself for his blowup.Against all odds, Walter did not even bat an eyelash. "Sure, let's go together. I'll give you a lift.""No need, I wouldn't want to hold you up from work. How awkward would that be?" Evangeline declined with a mocking smile.Little did he know, she was kicking herself on the inside.Evangeline could not believe she had gotten herself into this mess, allowing Walter to weave himself into her day.If Walter drove her to school and ran into Alex, would that not spark another epic showdown?However, Walter did not seem to think it was a big deal and casually remarked, "No trouble at all, it's on my way!"Evangeline racked her brain but could not make sense of it. The music campus of Avalon University and the Gordon Group's headquarters were in completely different directions. How on earth could Walter have the nerve to claim it was on his way?However, after

Celina noticed that Evangeline was about to leave and asked with concern,"Are you going out, miss?"Evangeline nodded while picking up her bag, not understanding why Celina's brows were furrowed.Before she could ask, Celina continued, "The Gordon family is in turmoil recently, and with your relationship with Walter… it might be best if you don't go out and attract attention."Evangeline could easily understand the meaning behind Celina's words. The Gordon family was in a crisis, and she had poured more fuel on the fire at a critical moment, practically throwing herself into the whirlpool of public opinion. If she went out, it was highly likely that paparazzi and reporters would follow her, and the consequences could be unimaginable."I'm sorry, but I still need to go."Evangeline's worry for Trey had reached its peak. Facing Celina's concerned expression, she reassured her, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. If necessary, I'll bring a few more bodyguards."Celina knew she could not

Some people also said that Walter had pushed out Alex. Gordon Group was going through a period of turmoil, suffering from investment failures, compounded by The Bennex Corporation's reckless and aggressive maneuvers, which were essentially pushing the company to the brink of collapse.The only way for Walter to temporarily calm the storm and give the company a chance to regroup was to push Alex out and take the blame for everything.As the news spread, its impact grew larger, and some even dared to publicly tag Gordon Group's official social media account. It was expected that Gordon Group would follow their usual approach of not responding and turning a blind eye.To everyone's surprise, the company issued an official statement within 10 minutes.The news that Mr. Alex Gordon had been incarcerated was true, but the specific reasons would need to wait for the police's verdict.This brief announcement confirmed the speculations of social media users.However, Gordon Group was not

Evangeline listened to Thomas's lament and felt a wave of sadness in her heart.However, there were too many such people and stories in Avalon City, and she could not sympathize with all of them.Besides, Carl had done many bad things while working for Alex. How could she pity him?"Is there nothing else? No more information? Those who are pitiful must have their faults."Evangeline was not someone whose sympathy overflowed, nor did she want to connect with this situation."My men discovered that Carl has been wandering around Avalon City recently. His whereabouts are completely uncertain, and we've been unable to track him down or know where to start looking."Thomas fell silent for a moment, and Evangeline could only hear the sound of a mouse clicking.After some time, he added warily, "Carl is probably looking for his family."Before Alex was arrested, Carl secretly returned home one night. What exactly happened is unclear, but the next day, his family was taken away. And the

Perhaps going out for a walk with Celina to clear her mind would help her regain her composure.To her surprise, Celina declined Evangeline's suggestion and said, "No, I want to go on a stroll alone.Seeing the sadness in Celina's eyes, Evangeline did not know what to say."Ms. Evangeline, I'm just feeling down for no reason. You don't need to worry about me. Maybe it's because… I've been too idle."In the past, Celina always had various tasks, but after returning to the Foster family, there were no more tasks, no work, and her sole focus was on David.All of a sudden, Zhang Tao recovered and no longer needed her.She needed some quiet time to rediscover her own value. Otherwise, she would only live in confusion and self-doubt.Evangeline did not insist. Adults need time for themselves, after all. She could not take away the time for solitude that Celina needed just because they had a good relationship."Then… be careful."Evangeline patted Celina's shoulder and watched her le

Evangeline's brow furrowed. This situation was indeed tricky."Why is Carl Fowler still running around outside on his own when his boss has been exposed? If I were him, with Alex arrested, I'd rush back to Southern Crownlands immediately. Even if I couldn't return here, I'd send the message to the Bennison family as quickly as possible."Instead, he's been wandering around Avalon City!"Evangeline's speculation was not without merit. After all, if Carl had sent news of Alex's arrest back to Southern Crownlands, the Bennison family would have taken action. They would not be unaware, like they were at this moment where they've fallen for Walter's smokescreen and did not even realize it.David stroked his chin thoughtfully. "There's definitely something else going on here, and we just haven't figured it out yet. Is Carl wandering around because he's looking for something—or someone?"Having been by Alex's side, he naturally understood the dangers around him.Avalon City was especiall

"Insufficient evidence!"Evangeline and David seemed to be perfectly in sync. David looked at Evangeline with admiration."You truly are incredible, ma'am. Your analytical skills are simply amazing!""You don't need to flatter me. Since you led me to this conclusion, you must have a solution, right?"Gordon Group never kept idle people, and Walter was a perfectionist when it came to hiring. Therefore, the fact that David had worked under Walter for so many years was enough to prove his capabilities.Realizing he had been seen through, David awkwardly scratched his head. "I do have a plan, but it's still a bit underdeveloped, and I don't know if it will help Mr. Gordon."Since he was not sure, he did not dare to bring it up to Walter, only discussing it behind his back with Evangeline."Come on, tell me. Maybe it'll help."If the evidence Walter had was not enough, Gordon Group would remain in turmoil. Trey Gordon was still in the hospital recovering, and the situation at Gordon

David and Celina had lived in Southern Crownlands for a while, so they knew where the Bennison family's base was located. What Evangeline was concerned about, however, was the enormous amount of information carried by this statement."Do you know where Walter got this phone number from?"Whoever used this number would prove to be connected to the Bennison family.If the key person behind the scandal involving Gordon Group could be traced, the company's troubles would be resolved in an instant.David shook his head. "Mr. Gordon only instructed me to investigate this phone number. He didn't say where it came from."Ma'am, the president is holding up Gordon Group on his own. Don't you think we can do something too? Like, helping him catch the key person?"David's tone was uncertain, but his eyes flashed with a sly glint.Evangeline knew he had already devised an idea before speaking to her. She leaned back in her chair, arms crossed, and glanced at him sideways. "Speak up, what's yo

"But you know David didn't do anything wrong, right?"If he had, then Celina would not have said she was waiting for him to finish his task. Instead, she would have barged into the study and confronted him immediately.Celina lowered her gaze. "Yes, I know."Both of them were workaholics, and once there was work to be done, they would not care about anything else. So, Celina understood David's feelings very well. That being said, she did not want him to neglect her."I just hate his boss. If it weren't for him giving David some task, he wouldn't be like this."Walter is such a heartless boss. My David is still seriously injured, yet he gave him such an important task. It's practically exploitation!"Just when David could barely move around again, he started working like a dog for Walter!Evangeline did not care about any of the exploitation talk. Her attention was solely on one thing, and that was…"What task did Walter assign to David?"Evangeline's intuition told her that th

After all, if The Bennex Corporation knew about it, it would mean there was an insider in Gordon Group who was working for the Bennison family. At that point, it would trigger another internal purge.Walter finally regained his focus, and the entire Gordon Group was filled with a sense of harmony and renewed vigor. Even the department head of the Operations Department, who had been tortured by stress for days, looked relieved. He knew that the time for their president to strike back had finally arrived!The intense applause from the employees expressed their excitement.Walter felt unexpectedly touched. After all, if the employees did not have any sense of belonging to Gordon Group, they would not have been moved by his sudden actions.Some even shed tears.Evangeline also had not expected that the moment of action would come so soon. She really had waited for Walter to strike back.Apart from this, what surprised her was that David had mysteriously gotten busy. Even Celina, who
