Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 593
The keychain dropped into the river.The water was crystal clear, dotted with chunks of ice since winter was just ending. Through the cold, she could make out the little brown bear on the keychain."Goodbye, Walter," she whispered to herself, knowing those words were meant more for her than for him.From that day forward, Walter would be a chapter closed in the book of Evangeline's life.With that, it was just her, the child growing inside her, the Foster family, and her own strength."Snow Wolf, let's hit the road."With that, Evangeline did not look back. She hopped into Snow Wolf's car, and they sped off to find some comfort food.Little did they know, within minutes of their departure, a sleek black sedan raced past, pulling up at the very spot they had just left.Walter stood there, lost in memories of the girl he once knew, her laughter echoing in his mind."Evangeline! Where are you?" he called out into the void.Walter's hands formed a makeshift megaphone as he yelled
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 594
After the car crash scare, Evangeline was not taking any chances. She and Snow Wolf hit up a diner, and she borrowed his phone to check in with Yale.Yale's voice was rough, tinged with a thrill he could not quite mask."Evie, thank goodness you're safe."Evangeline figured he was just worried about her, not reading into it too much.However, a beat later…"Don't bother with the old house; head straight to the hospital. It's your grandfather. He..."Yale sounded utterly spent.He had no idea that Evangeline had only been safe and sound for less than eight hours since her disappearance.The Fosters could not keep a lid on it for even that short a time.Outside the operating room, the red light flicked on, and Yale's heart sank.Holden was a statue, his fists clenched, eyes glued to the operating room doors, not looking away for even a split second.Yale could not hold back his emotions any longer when he saw Holden's state. His eyes welled up as he quickly moved closer and ga

Evangeline's eyes were red-rimmed as she shook her head fiercely, refusing to accept it. "Grandpa is going to pull through. Dr. George said we have to believe," she pleaded, her voice breaking.She was holding onto Yale's hand as if her grip alone could keep her grandfather alive.She knew how serious it was, that he might not make it through the night. However, she could not bear the thought of her uncles returning, as if their arrival would seal her grandfather's fate. Yale understood her all too well, his own heart aching with the same fear.His hand gently touched her forehead, stroking it softly. "What's on your mind? Your grandpa is really sick, and your uncle Holden and I are swamped. We thought it'd be best to call your other uncles to pitch in."Evangeline knew it was a kind lie, but she could not bring herself to call it out.The day the Foster brothers all came together was the same day Cole got moved out of the ICU to a regular room.Evangeline was so happy that she c

Evangeline's eyes were wide with disbelief.Cole could not just randomly bring up happiness and Walter without a reason."Grandpa, let's not talk about this, okay? Dr. George said your surgery went really well, and you're not going anywhere!"The fear of losing her grandfather wrapped around her, and she could not bear to hear any more of that from him.Cole offered a weak smile. "Evie, everyone's got to face the big four: being born, getting old, getting sick, and dying. Even if I pull through this time, I can't dodge the final curtain."Don't be scared, okay?"Cole's smile was as warm and gentle as ever, his frail, aged hand reaching out to stroke Evangeline's hair, just like he did when she was a little girl."I won't!" Evangeline's tears had broken free, spilling onto the blanket that lay over Cole. "I want Grandpa to stay with me forever. I can't stand the thought of being apart from you!"Cole could not help but smile, "Oh, my silly Evie, you're still so young. If I staye

She had caused her grandfather's death!Tears slid down silently, leaving trails on Evangeline's face, her sobs then just a whisper.At that very moment, the hospital room door swung open. Walter, his face ashen, appeared at the threshold. Feeling the weight of everyone's stares, he fidgeted uncomfortably, his hand brushing the back of his neck."I heard Mr. Foster was ill, so I... I just came...""What are you even doing here?" Evangeline shot up from her seat and marched straight toward Walter. "Walter, did you have something to do with my grandpa getting sick? Did you really have to come here and play the concerned visitor?"If Walter had not been so hung up on Julia, if she was not worried about how heartbroken Cole would be to see Walter being mean to her, why would she have ever spent so much time away from Cole's side?"Evangeline, what are you doing here?"Walter was in total disbelief.Had not Julia taken Evangeline away? He had scoured every corner of Avalon City and

Walter's phone buzzed to life out of the blue."Sir, I'm feeling a lot better now, ready to get back to the mission in Southern Crownlands."David's voice was stuffy and sounded like he was on the tail end of a cold.He already knew the whole drama about Evangeline getting nabbed by Julia while trying to rush him to the hospital.Taking a beat, he cautiously broached the subject, "How's Mrs. Gordon holding up?"It was not that he doubted Walter's expertise, but Evangeline's trouble was tied to him, and he could not shake off the guilt without checking in."She's fine now." Walter kept his voice even, masking whatever he was feeling."She's fine?" David echoed, relief flooding his words. "That's a relief, a huge relief."Knowing Evangeline was out of hot water made his own heart lighter."I'll head out tonight, catch a flight to Southern Crownlands."He mulled it over briefly before filling Walter in."Sure about that?" Walter was the one caught off guard then. "Weren't you a

Walter was shocked to discover just how incompetent his team was."Sorry, Mr. Walter Gordon. We've done everything we could, but they're too slick. They fed us fake leads, and we bit hard. By the time we figured it out and doubled back, they were gone—like they'd vanished into thin air..."…Elsewhere, Julia lounged in a swanky villa, sweet-talking someone on a video call."Honey, don't be mad, okay? I know you're just worried about me. But look, I'm totally fine. Plus, I'll be home before you know it."Her voice was dripping with sweetness, like she was talking through a mouthful of honey.The bodyguard who had just walked in caught a bit of her sugary tone and quickly looked down, giving her a respectful nod as he updated her, "Ms. Rearden, we've lost the tail."Julia's face, which had been all smiles, turned to ice. "Good job. You can go now."With a dismissive wave, she sent the bodyguard scurrying out. As soon as he was gone, her sweet smile returned.On the screen, the m
Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 600
The second Walter tied Julia to the bed, everything clicked for her.She never had a place in his heart. His kindness was just payback for the time she saved his life.She had fooled herself into thinking it was more, that his gratitude was affection. She had been lying to herself for years.It was time to snap out of it.Julia hid her face in her hands, fighting back tears, but when she looked up, she caught sight of the bodyguard who had not left. He was a constant annoyance.Her team was disciplined, and they knew better than to interrupt when the boss was on the line. However, that guy? He broke all the rules, brazenly reporting to the boss about Walter, right in front of him!She motioned to him with a flick of her finger.The bodyguard came over, bowing so low he was practically staring at his shoes.From above him, Julia's voice dropped flat and emotionless. "You better have a darn good reason for cutting into my call with the leader."Her tone was distant as she casual
