Unmasking the Heiress Chapter 733
What baffled Walter was who could have convinced Trey to agree to such a thing.After all, Alex was a natural at business. Forcing him out of the game was like a fate worse than death!Did someone have a grudge against Alex?Caught up in his thoughts, Walter found himself at the bottom of the stairs.Instinctively looking ahead, he spotted a solitary figure in the garden through the villa's large windows.The chill of early spring lingered in the air.Alex was out there, dressed in a light camel hair coat with a blanket over his legs, staring blankly at the garden's faded glory.Walter did not interrupt him. Instead, he stood by the window, silently watching.Alex had always been his brother, and nothing could change that. Despite their different parents and the rivalry over Evangeline, Walter had always seen Alex as a true brother.As he watched the solitary figure outside, Walter wondered what was going through Alex's mind. Was he thinking about when he would return to the c

Yale had put his job on hold for the sake of the Foster family, and the higher-ups were not exactly thrilled about it.Anyone else would have raced back to work by then.However, with Evangeline's miscarriage and Cole's death, not to mention the constant threats of assassination and kidnapping, Yale was too worried about Evangeline's safety to leave.He was not about to let Holden pin that kind of rap on him.Holden realized he had crossed a line and quickly switched gears. "Okay, okay, so I've got a big mouth and I blabbed. You're the big brother, aren't you going to let it slide?"Just then, something dawned on Holden. "Hey, you've been home for ages now. What about your job... is everything okay there?"As he spoke, Holden kicked himself for being so clueless. He had only just thought about his elder brother's job situation.Yale held a top position in the north and could not leave a job like that unattended for long.Holden knew that Yale must be going through tough times o

Yale's face twisted into a knot at the thought of Roslyn.As long as she did not rub off on Evangeline, he could pretend not to see whatever else she got up to."What's the big deal?"Holden shrugged. "Did you forget? When Evie wanted to shack up solo in the 'Emerald of the Highlands' mansion, didn't we hook her up with Julieta for some round-the-clock company? She was none the wiser!"And I've got just the person in mind to hang with Evie—what about... Hank?"Holden leaned in, a mischievous glint in his eye."Don't even try to tell me you're not itching to keep that golden goose for the company! Sure, the kid's got skills, but him working his tail off for the Foster Group without any official title or clear role? That's a ticking time bomb."Why not play matchmaker with him and Evie? If sparks fly and Hank becomes part of the Foster family by marrying her, we could hand over the whole shebang with peace of mind, right?"He was talking a mile a minute, his excitement growing wi

Julieta pulled out her phone, thumb hovering over the screen as if she was about to shoot off a text to Evangeline."Is that the truth?"Julieta's words were flawless, but something still did not sit right.It was Roslyn who cut through the weird vibe hanging in the air. "Let's not get stuck on this, okay? Evie and I were off exploring the world, and Mrs. Lewis taking a break to head home made sense. However, we're back now. So, Mrs. Lewis, are you still planning to extend your vacation?"That hit like a splash of cold water.Evangeline had gotten so used to Julieta's cooking that the thought of her leaving was downright unsettling.However, Julieta…She had not seen her own home since she started as Evangeline's live-in nanny. She had meant to use that chance to catch up with her kids.Torn between her job and her family, Julieta set her packed bag down. "If you ladies aren't heading out, then I guess I'm not on holiday anymore."For a live-in nanny, the job always came first

Roslyn's words were fiercely loyal.Despite Evangeline backing out after agreeing to the lead song, Roslyn did not show a speck of resentment.Evangeline felt a wave of gratitude wash over her. Maybe that was what it meant to truly have someone in her corner. Then there was Walter. If Julia had been around, he would never have picked Evangeline first. It had happened enough times to make it clear.Still…"Aren't they going to be on your case about it?"After all, Evangeline was supposed to deliver the hit song, the make-or-break for the album's success."Worst comes to worst, I'll just say I told you not to write it. What can they really do to me?"Roslyn gave Evangeline's shoulder a reassuring pat. "So, you've got a clear path ahead, just don't be your own roadblock, okay? And don't sweat it about me. The album's my gig, and if I bail, they're the ones who'll take the hit, not me! They're not about to do something that dumb."Roslyn's pep talk did wonders for Evangeline's gu

"I'm not really tied up with anything, but going out to clear my head..."That thought had not even crossed her mind.Evangeline was about to blurt out her real plans when Roslyn yanked her back to reality. She caught herself just in time.Hank knew she was supposed to be traveling, so claiming she had not thought about taking a breather would be a dead giveaway that she was lying, right?"Can't make it to Southern Crownlands, but hey, another adventure could be just as cool. I'm still up in the air about where to go, though. Got any awesome ideas?"Evangeline instantly regretted the words. Everyone knew vacations were for time together, and there she was, asking for advice like a clueless newbie.However, Hank, too thrilled about the prospect of hitting the road with Evangeline, missed the awkwardness entirely."I'm thinking a local spin around Avalon City might be the ticket. You know, with the company and all, I have to stay on call. Wouldn't want to jet off too far and mess

"Okay, so when do we head out? I need to let Mrs. Lewis know to whip up some snacks ahead of time. Aurora Mountain is all mountains, and it's not like we can just grab a bite anywhere if we get peckish."'!'Hank was nearly floored.It was clear as day that his excuses were just to dodge any awkwardness with Evangeline. However, who would have guessed she would agree?Little did they know, Evangeline had seen all their little power plays.She did not feel much about it; she just felt like chuckling.Hank had invited her out, and she knew exactly what he was thinking. She also got why Roslyn had turned him down.However, to just go on a simple outing with Hank would be missing out on a golden chance.She needed to... spice things up a bit. To give her Roslyn one heck of a surprise.While Roslyn was off chasing down Julieta, Evangeline hit up Yale on the phone."Uncle Yale, I'm thinking of checking out Aurora Mountain with Hank tomorrow, is that alright with you?"She had alwa

Celina noticed that Evangeline was about to leave and asked with concern,"Are you going out, miss?"Evangeline nodded while picking up her bag, not understanding why Celina's brows were furrowed.Before she could ask, Celina continued, "The Gordon family is in turmoil recently, and with your relationship with Walter… it might be best if you don't go out and attract attention."Evangeline could easily understand the meaning behind Celina's words. The Gordon family was in a crisis, and she had poured more fuel on the fire at a critical moment, practically throwing herself into the whirlpool of public opinion. If she went out, it was highly likely that paparazzi and reporters would follow her, and the consequences could be unimaginable."I'm sorry, but I still need to go."Evangeline's worry for Trey had reached its peak. Facing Celina's concerned expression, she reassured her, "Don't worry, I'll be careful. If necessary, I'll bring a few more bodyguards."Celina knew she could not

Some people also said that Walter had pushed out Alex. Gordon Group was going through a period of turmoil, suffering from investment failures, compounded by The Bennex Corporation's reckless and aggressive maneuvers, which were essentially pushing the company to the brink of collapse.The only way for Walter to temporarily calm the storm and give the company a chance to regroup was to push Alex out and take the blame for everything.As the news spread, its impact grew larger, and some even dared to publicly tag Gordon Group's official social media account. It was expected that Gordon Group would follow their usual approach of not responding and turning a blind eye.To everyone's surprise, the company issued an official statement within 10 minutes.The news that Mr. Alex Gordon had been incarcerated was true, but the specific reasons would need to wait for the police's verdict.This brief announcement confirmed the speculations of social media users.However, Gordon Group was not

Evangeline listened to Thomas's lament and felt a wave of sadness in her heart.However, there were too many such people and stories in Avalon City, and she could not sympathize with all of them.Besides, Carl had done many bad things while working for Alex. How could she pity him?"Is there nothing else? No more information? Those who are pitiful must have their faults."Evangeline was not someone whose sympathy overflowed, nor did she want to connect with this situation."My men discovered that Carl has been wandering around Avalon City recently. His whereabouts are completely uncertain, and we've been unable to track him down or know where to start looking."Thomas fell silent for a moment, and Evangeline could only hear the sound of a mouse clicking.After some time, he added warily, "Carl is probably looking for his family."Before Alex was arrested, Carl secretly returned home one night. What exactly happened is unclear, but the next day, his family was taken away. And the

Perhaps going out for a walk with Celina to clear her mind would help her regain her composure.To her surprise, Celina declined Evangeline's suggestion and said, "No, I want to go on a stroll alone.Seeing the sadness in Celina's eyes, Evangeline did not know what to say."Ms. Evangeline, I'm just feeling down for no reason. You don't need to worry about me. Maybe it's because… I've been too idle."In the past, Celina always had various tasks, but after returning to the Foster family, there were no more tasks, no work, and her sole focus was on David.All of a sudden, Zhang Tao recovered and no longer needed her.She needed some quiet time to rediscover her own value. Otherwise, she would only live in confusion and self-doubt.Evangeline did not insist. Adults need time for themselves, after all. She could not take away the time for solitude that Celina needed just because they had a good relationship."Then… be careful."Evangeline patted Celina's shoulder and watched her le

Evangeline's brow furrowed. This situation was indeed tricky."Why is Carl Fowler still running around outside on his own when his boss has been exposed? If I were him, with Alex arrested, I'd rush back to Southern Crownlands immediately. Even if I couldn't return here, I'd send the message to the Bennison family as quickly as possible."Instead, he's been wandering around Avalon City!"Evangeline's speculation was not without merit. After all, if Carl had sent news of Alex's arrest back to Southern Crownlands, the Bennison family would have taken action. They would not be unaware, like they were at this moment where they've fallen for Walter's smokescreen and did not even realize it.David stroked his chin thoughtfully. "There's definitely something else going on here, and we just haven't figured it out yet. Is Carl wandering around because he's looking for something—or someone?"Having been by Alex's side, he naturally understood the dangers around him.Avalon City was especiall

"Insufficient evidence!"Evangeline and David seemed to be perfectly in sync. David looked at Evangeline with admiration."You truly are incredible, ma'am. Your analytical skills are simply amazing!""You don't need to flatter me. Since you led me to this conclusion, you must have a solution, right?"Gordon Group never kept idle people, and Walter was a perfectionist when it came to hiring. Therefore, the fact that David had worked under Walter for so many years was enough to prove his capabilities.Realizing he had been seen through, David awkwardly scratched his head. "I do have a plan, but it's still a bit underdeveloped, and I don't know if it will help Mr. Gordon."Since he was not sure, he did not dare to bring it up to Walter, only discussing it behind his back with Evangeline."Come on, tell me. Maybe it'll help."If the evidence Walter had was not enough, Gordon Group would remain in turmoil. Trey Gordon was still in the hospital recovering, and the situation at Gordon

David and Celina had lived in Southern Crownlands for a while, so they knew where the Bennison family's base was located. What Evangeline was concerned about, however, was the enormous amount of information carried by this statement."Do you know where Walter got this phone number from?"Whoever used this number would prove to be connected to the Bennison family.If the key person behind the scandal involving Gordon Group could be traced, the company's troubles would be resolved in an instant.David shook his head. "Mr. Gordon only instructed me to investigate this phone number. He didn't say where it came from."Ma'am, the president is holding up Gordon Group on his own. Don't you think we can do something too? Like, helping him catch the key person?"David's tone was uncertain, but his eyes flashed with a sly glint.Evangeline knew he had already devised an idea before speaking to her. She leaned back in her chair, arms crossed, and glanced at him sideways. "Speak up, what's yo

"But you know David didn't do anything wrong, right?"If he had, then Celina would not have said she was waiting for him to finish his task. Instead, she would have barged into the study and confronted him immediately.Celina lowered her gaze. "Yes, I know."Both of them were workaholics, and once there was work to be done, they would not care about anything else. So, Celina understood David's feelings very well. That being said, she did not want him to neglect her."I just hate his boss. If it weren't for him giving David some task, he wouldn't be like this."Walter is such a heartless boss. My David is still seriously injured, yet he gave him such an important task. It's practically exploitation!"Just when David could barely move around again, he started working like a dog for Walter!Evangeline did not care about any of the exploitation talk. Her attention was solely on one thing, and that was…"What task did Walter assign to David?"Evangeline's intuition told her that th

After all, if The Bennex Corporation knew about it, it would mean there was an insider in Gordon Group who was working for the Bennison family. At that point, it would trigger another internal purge.Walter finally regained his focus, and the entire Gordon Group was filled with a sense of harmony and renewed vigor. Even the department head of the Operations Department, who had been tortured by stress for days, looked relieved. He knew that the time for their president to strike back had finally arrived!The intense applause from the employees expressed their excitement.Walter felt unexpectedly touched. After all, if the employees did not have any sense of belonging to Gordon Group, they would not have been moved by his sudden actions.Some even shed tears.Evangeline also had not expected that the moment of action would come so soon. She really had waited for Walter to strike back.Apart from this, what surprised her was that David had mysteriously gotten busy. Even Celina, who
