"Leave this to me," declared Minnie with a triumphant smirk. "Just wait for the news."She hung up and thought of Walter, still snoozing in the lounge, and picked up her pace.However, as soon as she entered the office, there was David, ever the loyal guard at the lounge door.The sight of him made her blood boil, and she stomped her foot in silent fury.David was a thorn in her side, always messing up her plans. She needed to find a way to convince Walter to give him the boot.Still, Minnie greeted David with a dazzling smile. "Morning, Mr. Zimmer."David nodded, blocking her path to the lounge with a polite but firm stance. "Ms. Kast, the boss is sleeping in there, and it's probably best not to wake him."Minnie holding up the cup of warm water. "No worries, I'm just dropping off some water for Walter so he's not parched when he wakes up. I won't make a peep, promise."Minnie was ready to tiptoe into the resting room, but David was not having any of it. "How about we hold off

"You... you're way out of line!"Minnie was panting with frustration when she slipped. The glass she was holding crashed to the floor.Shards and splashes went flying, turning the spick-and-span office into a bit of a disaster zone.Anyone else would have been mortified after spilling their drink, scrambling to wipe up the mess before anyone noticed. However, Minnie was not just anyone. She was sure of her special status, and Walter adored her too much to ever let her deal with such trivialities.With only the bothersome David around, he was the obvious choice to handle the situation."Mr. Zimmer, didn't your boss, Mr. Walter Gordon, tell you to look after me? So shouldn't you be the one to clean this up?" she said, her voice dripping with condescension as she rolled her eyes at him.She expected David to flush with anger and reluctantly tidy up her mess.To her surprise, David just flashed a warm, inviting smile and gestured politely. "Absolutely, Ms. Kast. Please, take a seat
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 448
When Minnie's water cup shattered against the floor, Walter's eyes snapped open. He was dead tired and did not jump out of bed right away. However, he had not counted on the escalating shouting match between his assistant and a girl, which got so loud that not even burying his head under the covers could muffle their bickering.Finally fed up, Walter stomped over to the doorway just in time to catch Minnie's dramatic declaration.David, meanwhile, looked down, wisely choosing to stay out of it.Realizing Walter had overheard her, Minnie's face went white with embarrassment.With David still there, smirking at the drama, Minnie felt her cheeks burn. She had no choice but to face the music, even if she had to fake her bravery.However, with Walter, she could not be as bold as she was with David.Her eyes danced with a soft light, and she flashed a coy smile, quickly steering the conversation elsewhere. "Walter, when did you wake up? You were up so late last night, why not sleep a l

"So, you decided to throw a tantrum and smash the cup?" Walter, piecing together the scene he stumbled upon earlier, cut Minnie off mid-sentence."No way!"Minnie was close to tears, her voice quivering. Walter's accusation stung, and even if she had done it on purpose, she could not own up to that."It was a clumsy mistake, the cup just slipped." As she spoke, Minnie's tears started to fall, and she hurriedly fessed up to Walter."Walter, please don't be mad. It's all on me. I'm big enough to know better, yet I can't even hold onto a cup. Not only did I break it, but I also woke you up..."Minnie, already a picture of innocence, put on her most woeful face, which was usually enough to melt anyone's heart.However, in the CEO's office, only Walter and David were present, and they were no strangers to Minnie's sob stories. Instead of feeling sympathy, they were almost tempted to push her further, just to see a more dramatic display of tears. It was a sight to behold.Walter felt

Minnie was doing that all on purpose.She was dying for the whole company to buzz about her and Walter, the big-shot president of Gordon Group. If the rumors spread, maybe Walter would feel forced to marry her after his divorce from Evangeline.Her fingers lightly traced Walter's cheek, the playful suggestion clear as day."Walter, you seem down. Look at you, bags under your eyes and all. Didn't catch much sleep, huh?" said Minnie, her voice dripping with fake sympathy, giving David a nudge to notice.Something was up with Walter, that was for sure.David could not help but turn his full attention to him.Walter shrugged off Minnie's clingy hands as if it were nothing. "Does it really matter how I feel? Life goes on, right?"The memory of last night made Walter's chest tighten with pain. If Cole had not been so set on having a great-grandson, he and Evangeline would probably be history already.He used to think Evangeline's heart belonged to Alex. However, with those two lovebi

"Imagine celebrating your birthday out on the ocean—it'd be the ultimate romantic adventure," said Minnie, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Walter, however, was lost in a different thought. "Does watching a sunrise together at sea really guarantee a lifetime of happiness?"He wondered if doing that with Evangeline would mean they would be happy together. The odds seemed against it, but part of him wanted to believe in the magic of the moment.What if it actually worked?"So, what do you say, Walter? Are you in?" Minnie asked, her voice tinged with hope.If Walter said yes, it would put Minnie's mind at ease. The sky stretched endlessly above them, and the dawn blushed a deep red. Could there be anything more romantic than two people coming together with the first light of day?"I'll think about it," Walter replied, his heart not really in it. He wanted to experience that moment, but not with Minnie. He could not just come out and say that, of course. He had to calmly find some

Finally, Walter took the reins of the conversation."Playing around on this cruise is getting pretty boring, don't you think? We should spice things up by inviting some friends. And hey,"A spark lit up in Walter's eyes as if he had just had an epic idea."We've got to have Evangeline there. It's my birthday, after all. If my wife skips out, it'll be the talk of the town. David, you've got to make sure she comes, by any means necessary!"Walter's mood had done a complete flip, and Minnie felt the sting of it deep inside.Why did he have to think of Evangeline, of all people, at a time that should be filled with joy?"Walter, are you into Evangeline or something?" Minnie's voice rose with her accusation, "I mentioned a cruise to catch the sunrise, and you couldn't care less. However, bring up Evangeline, and you're all fired up..."She stood up abruptly, her eyes welling up with fresh tears that traced the paths of old ones down her cheeks."If you're into Evangeline, just be st

Evangeline remembered she had promised to pen a track for her best friend Roslyn's new album and had not even started. Hence, she got down to business, writing like a whirlwind.Her ideas were flowing non-stop, and she was all in on the writing sesh until she snapped back to reality at two in the afternoon.She pulled out her phone, like always, to check for any messages she missed and saw David's missed call right away.Why was David, who was practically glued to Walter, calling her?She raised an eyebrow.However, knowing David was not one to bug her for no reason, and not wanting to miss out on something major, she called him back, even though she was not exactly thrilled about it."Mrs. Gordon, you finally hit me back."David was practically crying with relief when Evangeline finally called him back.He had tried reaching her at noon but got no answer. Then he just zoned out, staring at his phone.He thought about calling again but did not want to disturb her. Not calling
