Walter probed.Without even bothering to glance back, Trey responded, "You've been Evie's husband for how long and are still clueless? What could I possibly know that you don't?"The old man's tone was laced with irritation. "Evie's a rose that's been planted in a pile of manure!" He shook his head in dismay. "How on earth did the Gordons end up with a dud like you?""Grandpa, I admit I messed up before, but is there anything else you know about Evangeline?" pressed Walter, desperate to uncover all he could about her."I've said

Oscar was a die-hard Cole fan. Cole's larger-than-life tale had even hit the silver screen, with flicks like 'The Gambling King's Saga' and 'The Gambler and His Three Thousand Ladies'. He had grown up on those stories and had dreamt more than once of being spotted by Cole, becoming his protege, and ruling the casinos. He imagined striking it rich overnight and living a life dripping with wealth and excess.The harsh truth was that his job was breaking his heart day after day, and trying to find someone had become as futile as searching for a needle in a haystack, with the constant threat of getting the ax hanging over his head.The next morning, Walter was up with the stars, waiting outside Evangeline's old place—a charming Victorian house she had lived in as a kid, back when her mother was still around.Walter remembered how her mother was a woman with flowing hair and warmth that could light up a room.Staring at the house brought a flood of childhood memories.

Evangeline never imagined that not only had Trey passed on his shares to her, but Walter had handed over most of his stake as well."What's this about? You think I don't feel valued? Now I've put everything—my whole net worth and life—in your hands. You still want to walk away?" Walter closed in, his presence overwhelming."So, you've rigged the whole game, huh? To keep me from leaving, you'd gamble away your entire fortune?""Isn't it better this way? Stay Mrs. Walter Gordon, and share in the Gordon family's legacy," said Walter."What's the point, Walter? You think I'm clueless? You're just trying to save your own skin. I never thought you'd stoop so low, using threats like this! If I sign that paper, everyone will see me as the gold-digger who took the Gordons for all they're worth and still walked out. I'll be the talk of the town, and I might even get less in the divorce because of it. You're beyond low."Evangeline had always known the world was not full of free lunches, esp

Everything Julia had clawed for, Evangeline seemed to possess without effort. Evangeline had Walter's affection as well as fame, and it was infuriating.Julia had been laying low to avoid stirring up more gossip, but she could not even enjoy a few days of peace at home before Walter's mother, Aria, casually mentioned the share transfer, reigniting Julia's smoldering rage.She had even come a day early to talk some sense into Walter, to convince him not to make a huge mistake. However, Aria, who was notorious for her blunders, had somehow mixed up the dates.By the time Julia got to the office, it was too late, and the deed was done. She walked right into Walter's office to find him wrapped up in a steamy embrace with Evangeline.Julia's hands balled into fists, her nails digging into her palms, but she could not let her rage show.Why did that woman, Evangeline, have to have everything, including trying to steal her man?

"What's on your mind that you need to tell my husband? Out with it—I'm all ears. Or, if you prefer, you two can have your little secret chat. Though, would you really leave me here, all by myself in the office, waiting, darling?" said Evangeline, her eyes playfully teasing Walter.Julia, witnessing that spectacle, was seething with rage."Julia, if there's something you need to say, let's hear it. Right here, right now." Walter's gaze shifted to Julia, the warmth gone and replaced by a chill colder than the one he reserved for strangers."I need to talk to you about our past project—it's about work. Can we talk in private?" There was a touch of desperation in her voice.'Walter, just look at me. I'm the one who really loves you,' Julia silently pleaded."I'm afraid I can't be of much help anymore." Walter shrugged helplessly. "Evangeline holds most of the Gordon Group's shares now. She's the top shareholder, and I even have to follow her lead."Julia could not believe it. Even if

"Cut the sob story, I'm not interested. You can leave my office now. I'll have someone show you out," said Evangeline, pressing the intercom to call the front desk. "I need two security guards to escort Ms. Julia out of the Gordon Group building, please."It was more of a boot than an escort. Julia was seething.Evangeline was not done yet. "Oh, and Ms. Julia? Just so you know, your partnership with Gordon Group is over, including that fancy 'Return of the Princess' project we were crafting for you. No need to come by the office for work anymore. Don't thank me—it's the least I can do."Evangeline's tone was light, but Walter caught the triumphant glint in her eye. He found every side of her utterly captivating.The violin prodigy who had once been the center of attention was then unceremoniously ousted from the building. There had been whispers that Julia might end up as the future Mrs. Gordon, and everyone had been so welcoming each time she visited. However, the real deal had ar

Both Evangeline and Walter eyed the insistent phone. With a nudge, she urged Walter to give her some space.Realizing she had something urgent to attend to, Walter backed off with a resigned sigh and started scrolling through his phone.He was frustrated to no end. Why did every perfect moment between them have to be interrupted? Was fate really against him and Evangeline being together?Evangeline, oblivious to Walter's inner turmoil, could not help but think that her estranged father, Andrew, had unwittingly done her a favor that time."What's up?" she snapped as she answered the call disdainfully."You better come over tonight! Meet me at Crystal Waters Apartment," Andrew barked back, even less politely.Evangeline pulled the phone away from her ear, saving herself from his grating, loud voice."Ha, as if I'll jump just because you say so. Who do you think you are? You think you're something special just because you're my dad?" She lashed out, unafraid. With her grandfather's
