All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 311 - Chapter 320

"What's the big deal? We can just grab whatever. As long as we're not hungry, it's all good, right?"Roslyn was thinking simple, while Evangeline's mind was racing a mile a minute."Here's the thing, I... I just got my period. But we're out of pads."Before Roslyn could even process what was going on, Evangeline clutched her belly and dropped a bombshell. "Uncle Yale is downstairs, and I'd be mortified to ask him to buy them. Could you maybe go with him to pick up some food and grab a pack for me?"Evangeline's eyes were pleading, almost begging.Roslyn's mind went blank with a buzz.Getting sanitary pads for Evangeline was not an issue, but going with Yale for the task was another story."Why don't we all go together?" Roslyn chimed in, trying to break the ice.She just could not shake off the weird vibes whenever she was alone with Yale."Me, this time of the month?" Evangeline quipped without missing a beat, her words dripping with sarcasm. "You wouldn't drag me out there,

Evangeline, peeking out from her villa, was over the moon seeing Yale and Roslyn heading out together. She knew them both well enough. Yes, there was an age gap, but why let good fortune slip away to strangers?She was practically on the edge of her seat, rooting for them, almost ready to give them a nudge closer.However, as she was about to step back from her secret lookout, a familiar shadow caught her eye. Her gaze sharpened with a hint of danger.She could spot him in a crowd, even if he disguised himself.She had to give credit to Walter. The guy had some serious moves, waltzing in and out of the swanky Emerald of the Highlands like he owned the place.She could not, in good conscience, fault the security. With Walter's connections, there was not a nook in Avalon City he could not slip into.However, what puzzled her was how he had even thought to look for her here. Since the birthday party wrapped up, they had not so much as whispered about this birthday gift.If he had p

Evangeline just shrugged and rolled her eyes at Walter.'I warned you to make the most of your time, but you wasted it. Now look who's back?' she thought, her scornful glance saying it all.Walter got the message loud and clear.However, before he could react, he grabbed Evangeline's wrist, yanked her into the bathroom, and slammed the door shut behind them.Evangeline blinked, realizing she was trapped in the bathroom with Walter."Come on. If Uncle Yale's back, he's back. What's the big deal with hiding?"Evangeline gave an inward sigh of exasperation. If Walter did not want to face him, he could have hidden alone. Why drag her, the owner of the villa, into this?Walter clamped a hand over her mouth and whispered urgently in her ear, "Shh! I followed Yale here. It'd look terrible if we got caught, wouldn't it?"Evangeline frowned in annoyance.She had expected Walter to have some clever plan, not... stalking!Then again, something else did not add up. Yale was no ordinary g

Everything else fell into place when Roslyn accepted the fact that she would never have a chance. She could finally let go of Yale.Was she okay with it, though?Far from it, but it was not about whether she was okay or not anymore. It was something she had to do."Evie? Yale and I are back with some food. Come pick out what you want to eat, will you?"Roslyn's legs might have turned to jelly from her spat with Yale, but she was determined to keep up appearances. Thus, she perched on the couch and called for Evangeline to come downstairs.Yale could tell something was up with Roslyn's mood, but since he was the one who put his foot in his mouth, he did not dare to push it. He did as she asked, setting the grocery bags on the coffee table.He was clueless about what he had said to upset her so much.Mood swings in a girl could occur unexpectedly, he thought. Maybe he was just an old guy who could not keep up. He thus decided he would keep to himself and stay out of trouble, even

Evangeline had been in Avalon City for a good while, but she had never stepped foot in Secret Recipe Kitchen until this day. She figured it was because she was always busy, never having a moment to drop by this cozy little eatery.Walter, however, was on a first-name basis with the staff, a clear sign he was a regular.Evangeline and Walter were ushered by the server into a cozy private room. It was not until she settled into her chair that she had the chance to take in her surroundings.Secret Recipe Kitchen boasted a decor that was both elegant and simple. Everyday items were transformed by the designer's touch into something that caught the eye and demanded admiration for the owner's impeccable taste.It made sense to her why the illustrious Walter of the Gordon family would choose this place.The server handed Evangeline the menu, and Walter was all easygoing."Pick whatever you like," he said.Walter's heart twisted a bit when he caught sight of Evangeline's pale, delicate
