All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

Walter's voice was loud and carried a moral weight. He had sought out Alex because he had intended to visit Evangeline at the Emerald of the Highlands villa himself, only to find Alex already on his way out.He just could not wrap his head around it. Despite his countless warnings, Alex did not back down. In fact, he doubled down. He ignored the fact that he was confined to a wheelchair and trekked across half of Avalon City just to see Evangeline!However, when Walter confronted him, all he got in return was a sharp, mocking laugh.Alex let out a laugh that was as biting as ice, dripping with scorn. "Walter, seriously, what right do you have to stand there and question me?"There he was, sitting in his wheelchair, propping up his chin with one hand, the other hand wrapped around his wrist, fingers playing with something.In the glare of the bright lights, something sparkled so intensely that Walter had to squint to make out that it was a watch.However, it did not matter what Al

Walter figured that even if Evangeline did not adore him as she did Alex, the fact that they shared a child had to mean she felt something for him, right?"Hahaha!" Alex's laughter rang out, unrestrained and so full of mirth that he almost cried.He let go of Walter's collar, stepping back to put some space between them."Walter, do you even buy that excuse?"Before Walter could muster a response, Alex's icy voice cut through again, "Do you really not know why Evie kept the child? Cole might be clueless, but you? Quit lying to yourself, okay? My dear brother!"The words 'dear brother' dripped with a warmth that did not reach Walter's ears; all he heard was biting sarcasm.Alex's probing questions lingered, but the truth had always been buried in Walter's heart.Evangeline had only decided to keep the child because of Cole's illness. If it were not for that, she would never have agreed to have his child.Walter could not recall how he left Alex's dorm building.He felt like a l

"Leave this to me," declared Minnie with a triumphant smirk. "Just wait for the news."She hung up and thought of Walter, still snoozing in the lounge, and picked up her pace.However, as soon as she entered the office, there was David, ever the loyal guard at the lounge door.The sight of him made her blood boil, and she stomped her foot in silent fury.David was a thorn in her side, always messing up her plans. She needed to find a way to convince Walter to give him the boot.Still, Minnie greeted David with a dazzling smile. "Morning, Mr. Zimmer."David nodded, blocking her path to the lounge with a polite but firm stance. "Ms. Kast, the boss is sleeping in there, and it's probably best not to wake him."Minnie holding up the cup of warm water. "No worries, I'm just dropping off some water for Walter so he's not parched when he wakes up. I won't make a peep, promise."Minnie was ready to tiptoe into the resting room, but David was not having any of it. "How about we hold off

When Minnie's water cup shattered against the floor, Walter's eyes snapped open. He was dead tired and did not jump out of bed right away. However, he had not counted on the escalating shouting match between his assistant and a girl, which got so loud that not even burying his head under the covers could muffle their bickering.Finally fed up, Walter stomped over to the doorway just in time to catch Minnie's dramatic declaration.David, meanwhile, looked down, wisely choosing to stay out of it.Realizing Walter had overheard her, Minnie's face went white with embarrassment.With David still there, smirking at the drama, Minnie felt her cheeks burn. She had no choice but to face the music, even if she had to fake her bravery.However, with Walter, she could not be as bold as she was with David.Her eyes danced with a soft light, and she flashed a coy smile, quickly steering the conversation elsewhere. "Walter, when did you wake up? You were up so late last night, why not sleep a l

Minnie was doing that all on purpose.She was dying for the whole company to buzz about her and Walter, the big-shot president of Gordon Group. If the rumors spread, maybe Walter would feel forced to marry her after his divorce from Evangeline.Her fingers lightly traced Walter's cheek, the playful suggestion clear as day."Walter, you seem down. Look at you, bags under your eyes and all. Didn't catch much sleep, huh?" said Minnie, her voice dripping with fake sympathy, giving David a nudge to notice.Something was up with Walter, that was for sure.David could not help but turn his full attention to him.Walter shrugged off Minnie's clingy hands as if it were nothing. "Does it really matter how I feel? Life goes on, right?"The memory of last night made Walter's chest tighten with pain. If Cole had not been so set on having a great-grandson, he and Evangeline would probably be history already.He used to think Evangeline's heart belonged to Alex. However, with those two lovebi
