Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 398
The big guy glared and growled when he talked to Walter, but the moment he looked at Minnie, it was like he flipped a switch. His moves softened, and his eyes lit up with a gentle glow.It was like watching a fierce tiger turn into a purring kitten, all thanks to some magic spell.However, what he did not realize was that he was poking the bear—Walter's bear.Since when did the heir to the Gordon empire take that kind of nonsense?Blame Evangeline for not picking a private spot for their coffee date! He, the secret tag-along, was caught in the spotlight!Still, ticked off as he was, Walter remained composed."Look, mister, you have to have the goods if you want to play the thief. And what do you have? That belly full of blubber?"He rested his cheek in his hand, casually brushed off Minnie's touch, and did not even bother to look up as he spoke.It was a clear diss, and it hit the mark.The guy's hand shot up, his black cap tumbled off, and there was Walter's striking face for

Thus, playing it safe, Evangeline decided that getting out of there was the smart move.Seizing the moment when everyone was preoccupied with Walter and Minnie, Evangeline summoned the waiter, settled the bill in a flash, and secretly wheeled Alex out the back door of the cafe."Evie, my car's right up front. Let's get out of here and then we can figure out how to handle Walter's drama," Alex suggested.He pointed ahead, and a white Toyota materialized before Evangeline's eyes.A driver-like figure stepped out, took the wheelchair from Evangeline with practiced ease, and helped Alex into the car.Evangeline stood by the car door, silently taking in the scene, her heart filled with a mix of emotions.Alex's inability to walk made outings in his wheelchair a challenge, but having someone there for him made all the difference.Did that mean when Alex went to meet up, he had the driver wait the entire time while he rolled himself to the cafe in his wheelchair?Seeing Evangeline hes

The whole company was buzzing with the news of Evangeline's pregnancy.Hank and Wade had decided that they would deal with major company issues by going straight to the head of the Foster family. That meant even fewer check-ins with Evangeline. "I'm out and about. Just spit it out, Wade."Wade's frantic tone sent a shiver of foreboding down Evangeline's spine. Was the company in some kind of serious trouble?"Look, good mood or bad, we've got to tackle the issues head-on." Evangeline's voice was firm, her tone no-nonsense. She was in the dark about Walter's situation and did not want to dwell on her own feelings, which seemed trivial by comparison. She understood that Wade's extra caution was because he knew about her pregnancy.Wade had little patience for drama, but as he thought about the bombshell he was about to drop, he felt a twinge of pity."Look, it's kind of a mess, and I can't just sum it up in a sentence or two. You better check out the trending section on Twitter."E

Out of nowhere, a bodyguard swooped in, grabbed the microphone from the reporter's hand, and chucked it aside."Mr. Walter Gordon won't be taking any interviews. Please clear the way, thank you!"Evangeline watched as Walter and Minnie were ushered out of the cafe by their protective entourage. She sighed in relief.However, she chided herself for worrying. The Gordons were powerful, and surely they could handle a little media frenzy.Just then, a car horn blared, snapping Evangeline back to the present. The window rolled down to reveal Yale Foster's face."Uncle Yale, what are you doing here?"She climbed into the front seat, her surprise at Yale's unexpected arrival written all over her face."Just looking out for you," said Yale with a shrug, then let out a sigh. "Walter has really stirred the pot this time. The Gordons can fend for themselves, but our Foster family's darling can't deal with this kind of drama."Evangeline felt a rush of warmth at her uncle's fierce loyalty.

Roslyn cracked up, "That's one sweet burden to bear...""Sure is. So when are you going to sign up for the gig?" asked Evangeline, her words heavy with implication.However, Roslyn missed the subtext entirely. She instead sighed and said, "Me? I haven't even found the man, so no burdens to bear for me!"Plus, I'm riding the career wave right now. Even if I had a partner, my agent would put a hard stop to marriage and kids. I'll think about settling down once I've cemented my career."Evangeline could not help but notice Roslyn's glances toward Yale. Was it her imagination, or was there something there?Roslyn was clearly into Yale. With Yale's awkward dodges around Roslyn, it was obvious he was not immune to her charms either.Why could these two not just clear the air already?Evangeline was deep in thought about Roslyn's love life quandary.Meanwhile, Walter was busy with work at the office, juggling more than he could handle.Everything went sideways in a flash. He had only

Their presence at the cafe had been so influential that, despite being guarded by bodyguards, there were bound to be paparazzi lurking, eager for an exclusive scoop.Would the news of her and Walter arriving at the company together not spread like wildfire, giving her the perfect chance to make a splash?Walter's gaze was deep and unreadable as he looked at Minnie, his face a mask hiding a whirlwind of thoughts.Then, out of the blue…"Minnie, why... Why are you so kind to me?"Minnie's cheeks flushed with a sudden warmth. "Walter, isn't it obvious by now?" she asked, her voice a mix of exasperation and hope.She was sure Walter was just playing dumb. He must have known her intentions ever since she started getting close to him.Walter, with his straightforward nature, confronted the question that had been nagging at him, "We haven't known each other long, and we've barely hung out.""Trust me, the first time I saw you, your charm had me totally hooked." Minnie cut off Walter's

Walter was fed up. He had to find solid proof that Minnie was actually Julia, to get that disgraceful woman out of his and Evangeline's life for good!Walter had made up his mind the moment his feelings for Minnie shifted. There was no way he had let what happened at the cafe occur again."Boss, they were out of your favorite cream of chicken and rice soup, so I grabbed some creamy wheat cereal instead..." David, carrying the takeout dinner, was rushing back to the office and mumbling to himself when he caught sight of the scene in front of him.The creamy wheat cereal he was holding dropped suddenly, spilling everywhere.Did he just see his boss and Minnie wrapped up in an embrace?The thud of the packing box echoed loudly in the deserted office, jolting Minnie out of her cozy moment with Walter. She let out a shriek, realizing who had just walked in."Ah!" Like she had been zapped by a bolt of lightning, Minnie leaped off Walter and scrunched up, ducking behind him for cover.
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 405
The mere mention of 'running the show' had Minnie blushing even harder, if that was possible. A sharp glint passed through Walter's eyes as his smile grew wider, a clear sign he knew exactly what he was doing."David, let's call it a day. Could you set up dinner for Ms. Kast? I've got stuff to do, so I'm heading out."Walter did not even pause as he got up to leave, but Minnie, still buzzing from the new thrill of romance, was not ready to let go."Walter, it's our first day as an item together. Can't you hang out just a bit longer, pretty please?"She was still floating on cloud nine from Walter's earlier affection, but the guy could flip a switch so fast. It was like one minute he was there, and he would be gone in the next, leaving her in a daze."Look, you're not exactly out of the picture with the whole cafe news scandal. If we're seen out together now, it's like we're asking for trouble. Plus, I'm still technically engaged to Evangeline. Getting too cozy with you isn't great
