Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 258
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

"Fancy seeing you here, Ms. Kast."Walter, perched at the podium, raised an eyebrow. "Though, it hasn't really been that long since we last saw each other, has it?"Minnie's eyes sparkled, a playful light swirling within them, her gaze glistening as if touched by dew. Even then, she pretended to be utterly serious as she replied, "Really? Then why does it feel like an eternity to me?"She propped her chin on her hands, elbows resting on the table, gazing at Walter with feigned naivety.Walter was taken aback.He was no stranger to flirtation due to his family's status, but Minnie's boldness and exuberance were something else entirely.Driven by curiosity, Walter decided to play along, asking with a hint of mischief, "And how long would that be, in your mind?"Their playful banter sent a current of flirtatious energy through the air, almost tangible enough to touch.The college students around them, all too familiar with the rollercoaster of romance, let out a collective, knowin

Alex took the stage, and as expected, he was stellar. His lesson was like a chain of fireworks, each part setting off the next, totally mesmerizing everyone. They clung to every word, and every so often, one could hear someone let out a 'wow'.It was during this class that Evangeline found out Alex was not just a violin virtuoso—he was a wizard on the piano and saxophone too.She let out a little embarrassed chuckle. She supposed she did not know Alex as well as she thought.Just as she was getting lost in Alex's epic talk, her phone had to go and ruin the vibe, blaring out of her pocket.The magic spell was broken, and all eyes darted to Evangeline.That was when it hit her—her phone was the culprit.She was here to learn, and she entirely forgot to silence her phone!Feeling her face heat up, she mumbled a 'sorry' to Alex and bolted from the room.Out in the hallway, Evangeline took out her phone and saw that Holden had been trying to reach her like crazy.He had called a bu
