Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 438
Julieta's voice cut through the air, yanking Evangeline back to reality.It was only then she realized she was too close to Alex, way closer than a sister-in-law should be to her husband's brother. It was way beyond what friends would consider normal.Her move was out of line."Ah, lemon water would be great, thanks. And yeah, pile on the sugar." Snapping out of it, Evangeline quickly put some space between her and Alex, settling back into her rocking chair.Alex seemed unfazed, however. "Evie, what's up?"Julieta had just delivered their drinks when Evangeline excused herself to the restroom, asking Julieta to keep their guest company for a moment before she dashed away.In the restroom, Evangeline's heart raced, thumping against her chest as if trying to escape. She could not believe it—the twinkle in Alex's eyes, it was because of her!Or was she just reading too much into it?Alex always hung out with her like they were nothing more than friends. Maybe it was just her early

It snagged Evangeline's attention, and she picked up without a second thought."Could it be an update on Lydia's location?" Evangeline asked, her voice thrumming with hope.Since the day she had scoped out Sunny Glow Beauty Salon and sketched out a map of its layout for Snow Wolf, all had been quiet on his end. That unexpected call had her mind racing. Could it be the break they needed?She was right. A cheerful male voice greeted her from the other end."Yes, we should've had news sooner, but we hit a snag," Snow Wolf admitted, pausing for a moment before diving back in. "The map you handed over was just a slice of the salon's real footprint. We had to crack their system wide open to snatch the hidden part of the blueprint they were sitting on."Now we're pretty sure there's a secret door tucked away in the back of the director's office. And Lydia, the one you've been chasing shadows to find, is holed up in a room right behind that door."Lydia's disappearance had stretched on f

"What's there to worry about?"Evangeline brushed it off without a second thought.She and Alex were close, so there was no need to sweat the small stuff.Watching Julieta fussing over everything, Evangeline could not help but reassure her, "Mrs. Lewis, we're close, you know. Just treat him like you'd treat me. Forget all that fancy etiquette.""Ms. Evangeline, hearing you say that puts my mind at ease."Julieta handed her a glass of lemon water from the coffee table. "Time for your lemon water! You have to keep up with that vitamin C for the little one. No more being stubborn once you're a mom, okay?"Evangeline's lips quirked at the sight of the lemon slices bobbing in the glass. This pregnancy felt more like a trial than a joy.She took the glass, took a deep breath, and downed a hearty swig, only to hear Julieta's constant chatter by her side."Mr. Alex Gordon was such a loss, all suave and kind-hearted. If only his legs were as strong as his character, he'd outshine Mr. Wa

The driver was the first to step out. He went around to the back seat, with the precision of routine, and placed a wheelchair on the ground. Then he reached back into the car, gently lifting the passenger out in a smooth, practiced move.He had done that so many times that he could probably do it blindfolded, always making sure his boss was comfy in the chair.However, a sudden gust of wind swept through the night, sending the unbraked wheelchair off course. The driver paused, the empty air under his arms telling him something had gone wrong."Sorry, Mr. Alex Gordon, the wind's taken your wheelchair for a spin. Hang tight in the car, I'll go grab it."No sooner had the driver's words faded than he caught sight of the runaway wheelchair making its way back, escorted by a man in a crisp white jacket."Then..."His eyes, filled with gratitude, landed on the man's face, but he could only get one syllable out before he was rooted to the spot in shock.The resemblance was uncanny.

Walter's voice was loud and carried a moral weight. He had sought out Alex because he had intended to visit Evangeline at the Emerald of the Highlands villa himself, only to find Alex already on his way out.He just could not wrap his head around it. Despite his countless warnings, Alex did not back down. In fact, he doubled down. He ignored the fact that he was confined to a wheelchair and trekked across half of Avalon City just to see Evangeline!However, when Walter confronted him, all he got in return was a sharp, mocking laugh.Alex let out a laugh that was as biting as ice, dripping with scorn. "Walter, seriously, what right do you have to stand there and question me?"There he was, sitting in his wheelchair, propping up his chin with one hand, the other hand wrapped around his wrist, fingers playing with something.In the glare of the bright lights, something sparkled so intensely that Walter had to squint to make out that it was a watch.However, it did not matter what Al
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 443
Evangeline was into Alex.The second the thought hit Walter, it was like unleashing a storm from Pandora's box, doubts he had never even considered started to swarm.Why, if Evangeline was into Alex, did she end up marrying him?Walter eyed the calm-looking Alex and demanded through clenched teeth, "Do you know the reason?"He had that eerie feeling that Alex's answer would not be anything he wanted to hear."Of course, I do." Alex nudged his wheelchair forward, inching closer to where Walter stood.In no time, Alex was right in front of him.Perched in his wheelchair, Alex seemed to loom a few inches above Walter, who was slouched on the couch.With that slight height advantage, Alex reached out and yanked Walter by the collar. "If you're so eager to know, I'll spell it out for you."Alex leaned in, his face almost brushing against Walter's, his gaze locked and a sly smile spreading as he dropped the bombshell."Because... Evie married the wrong guy."Walter, like it or not
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 444
Walter figured that even if Evangeline did not adore him as she did Alex, the fact that they shared a child had to mean she felt something for him, right?"Hahaha!" Alex's laughter rang out, unrestrained and so full of mirth that he almost cried.He let go of Walter's collar, stepping back to put some space between them."Walter, do you even buy that excuse?"Before Walter could muster a response, Alex's icy voice cut through again, "Do you really not know why Evie kept the child? Cole might be clueless, but you? Quit lying to yourself, okay? My dear brother!"The words 'dear brother' dripped with a warmth that did not reach Walter's ears; all he heard was biting sarcasm.Alex's probing questions lingered, but the truth had always been buried in Walter's heart.Evangeline had only decided to keep the child because of Cole's illness. If it were not for that, she would never have agreed to have his child.Walter could not recall how he left Alex's dorm building.He felt like a l
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 445
However, how did things turn out? Evangeline went straight to Cole and said she wanted to marry Walter, and Walter was all she ever talked about.Then, Walter had taken Evangeline for granted, leaving her shattered. He adored her and could not stand seeing her so torn up. He wanted her to lean on him, to heal her broken heart. How could that have been wrong?No, he was not the one at fault there!If anyone was to blame, it was all on Walter. He never should have married Evangeline, never should have taken her for granted, and definitely should not have gotten her pregnant!Just thinking about that kid growing so boldly inside Evangeline's belly made Alex seethe with rage. It was like an itch he could not scratch!…Sunny Glow Beauty Salon.Lydia's frown could have cut steel as she listened to her minions report back to her.For the sake of her beloved daughter's marriage to Walter, and to exact her revenge, she had been determined to get rid of Evangeline's baby no matter what.
