All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

With a triumphant smirk, Julia slipped by the watchful eyes of the bodyguards and tiptoed out the back door.…Evangeline settled into her private booth at Kronovia Royale Pub, surrounded by glasses of Bloody Mary.The Fosters were gambling royalty, their power unchallenged.Evangeline, a true Foster by blood, had always been drawn to the color of blood.Staring into the deep red of her drink, her favorite, Evangeline could not shake the image of Walter from her mind.'Evangeline! You're the Foster family's treasured princess, the apple of everyone's eye, raised with love and care by your doting grandfather and uncles—not to be mistreated!'What's a guy like Walter even worth? To think he drove you to drink your sorrows away and torment yourself. Does he deserve that power over you? Absolutely not!' ran her thoughts.Evangeline's heart screamed the answer, but her hand betrayed her, lifting the glass and emptying it in one defiant swig.Walter was, after all, a man she had onc

As soon as Evangeline was out the door, the relentless paparazzi spilled the beans.In no time, the story of Evangeline, the Foster family's enigmatic darling, was the talk of the town.She had once ruthlessly stolen her sister's fiance and kicked her own father out. Recently outed as a notorious, polarizing figure in the racing scene, she had, in a single night, become the Foster family's mysterious princess.With her family's clout and a billion-dollar fortune, she and the Gordon family's Mr. Walter Gordon were seen as the perfect match, a true power couple.Evangeline had just inked a deal that put the Gordon family's shares in her grasp, effectively giving her the reins of both the Gordon and Foster family fortunes. This was not some cliche tale of a cunning woman latching onto a wealthy heir. No, it was the story of a formidable beauty who, for reasons she kept close to her chest, had been playing her cards under the radar.Such a twist would be too bold even for the wildest

However, as soon as she set the phone down, the doorbell chimed."Who's there?"Evangeline had splurged on the presidential suite and had one rule: No interruptions. Apparently, that was too much to ask.Were the hotel staff clueless? What were the bodyguards even there for if not to keep people out?"Hello, room service!" came a muffled call from the other side of the door.With a frown, Evangeline swung the door open, her patience wearing thin. "I thought I made myself clear. No disturbances, remember?"However, the words hung unfinished in the air as she saw the mischievous grin plastered on the face of the unexpected visitor.There were no bellhops or maids in sight, just the malicious-looking Roslyn and a bodyguard who looked like he had seen a ghost.Roslyn was a vision in red, her tank top and miniskirt combo screaming 'party', her legs encased in sexy black fishnets, towering heels adding to her height, and her face done up in dramatic smoky makeup. She was a nightclub

Only when the server emerged with their drinks did Julia seize her moment, darting in front of him.A triumphant glint swept over her as she looked at Evangeline.'Evangeline, you're so smug, aren't you? Well, tonight's the night you're going down in flames,' Julia thought, a gleeful smirk playing on her lips.Evangeline, settled in her booth, received her cocktail.It was a stunning shade of bright blue, the ice cubes casting a cool mist. If she leaned in close, the crisp scent of tequila would tease her senses.Evangeline's lips curled into a pleased smile.'Tomorrow' was blue, no? That was exactly the drink she had had in mind.She took a delicate sip, letting the flavors dance on her tongue.The liquor was potent, rushing to her head, and Evangeline knew she would be over the edge if she had more than half.She reined in the urge to gulp it down and, as the dance floor pulsed with a new song, she eagerly pulled Roslyn into the throng.The beat was infectious, and Roslyn w

Walter was determined to make Evangeline realize who she was dealing with."Walter, you are a monster!"Evangeline turned off the shower, braced herself against the tub, and stood to face him."No, you're worse. You're a real demon!"Didn't my uncle tell you that I'm divorcing you tomorrow? So what are you doing here? What's the deal? Are you trying to be trendy with a parting shot before the divorce, Mr. Walter Gordon?"Evangeline's biting words left Walter with no chance to argue back.The moment Evangeline stepped out of the chilly water, a wave of heat engulfed her. It was an all-consuming blaze, as though she was a steak sizzling on a grill.What on earth was happening to her?She tried to bear the searing pain, but a refreshing sensation on her cheek caught her off-guard. Her eyes snapped up to meet Walter's, who was looking down at her with a chilling smirk."Finally awake, Evangeline? Do you see who's before you?""I'd know you anywhere, Walter. You could be a pile of
