All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 481 - Chapter 490

It was much better than Evangeline's situation, where there still had not been a word of news…Walter, who never was one for prayers, found himself pressing his palms together over his heart, wishing with all his might, 'Evangeline, you have to be okay! Please, come back to us safe and sound!'Walter could not spare a thought for the Foster family's chaos, but as Evangeline's own family, they were in total disarray.The Fosters were the first in Avalon City to hear about the disaster on Dannington Road.Just as Evangeline and Walter had parted ways, Holden had gotten word that Evangeline was headed back to the villa. It was then the bombshell dropped.Holden was shell-shocked. It hit him like a ton of bricks, and he could not make sense of it all.Evangeline had been on that highway. Evangeline might be... gone.Impossible!Holden refused to accept that could be the truth.As soon as he caught wind of the news, his first thought was of Cole, still on the mend. Thus, he made su

They were not doubting their niece, Evangeline. However, surviving a wreck like that, especially right in the thick of it, seemed impossible.Even Yale, a tough-as-nails ex-soldier, did not let himself hope.The brothers had two things on their agenda when they showed up to see Walter. They wanted to give him a piece of their mind for Evangeline, and then get his help to figure out what happened to her.Evangeline adored Walter. Knowing he had done something, anything, for her would have given her some peace.However, the Foster brothers were on fire with anger. In no time, Walter was sporting a colorful bruise collection.He did not even try to fight back.After the crash, he was so devastated that he thought about giving up everything—the company, the Gordon legacy—and just dying with Evangeline.However, he did not need to burden Evangeline's uncles with those thoughts.However, when he heard what Yale had to say, he forced himself to calm down. "Yale, did you guys figure so

By the time Alex got to the scene, it looked like a tornado had hit. Walter's blood was everywhere."Hey, hold up!" Alex yelled at the top of his lungs.Yale spotted Alex and was the first to back off.Holden, still fuming, gave Walter one last stomp before he quit. He faced Alex, all serious business, and laid it out straight, "Every wrong has a wrongdoer, every debt its debtor. We Fosters don't let things slide, but we don't pin stuff on the innocent either. Gordon family's number two, you're off the hook for Evie's car wreck. You're free to go."He gave Alex a dismissive wave, but Alex was not about to budge. Instead, he wheeled himself right up next to Walter."Sorry, but I've still got things to say, so I'm sticking around."I've got a hunch that Evie isn't dead!"That bombshell sent shockwaves through the trio.Yale felt internally torn. He would give anything for Evie to be alive, but after such a horrific crash, it seemed impossible…Holden, ever the hothead, jumped in

Walter and Alex locked eyes for a moment. Walter's complexion was ghostly, his deep-set eyes a well of loneliness.Alex, parked in his wheelchair, looked calm. A subtle smile played on his lips, and his eyes crinkled with a touch of pride.Standing and seated, their gazes met, and without a word, they understood each other perfectly.Finally, Alex arched an eyebrow at Walter. "You know, I pulled you out of the Foster family brothers' grip, Walter. Aren't you going to thank me?"Walter's mouth twisted into a wry smirk.Years of rivalry had taught him to read between the lines. If he had not grasped Alex's motives at first, Holden's pointed question made it crystal clear. He would be a fool not to see the setup then.It all added up. Alex had foreseen Evangeline's predicament, knew the Foster brothers would come for Walter first, and positioned himself strategically. Just as the trio was on the verge of a showdown, Alex swooped in like a hero, sharing the news he had had all along

"Step on it. We've got to make it to the bust right away."Evangeline was itching to see Lydia get nabbed with her own eyes."However..." The bodyguard shot a worried look at Evangeline's baby bump, but after a moment's hesitation, he floored the gas pedal.Sunny Glow Beauty Salon was a good distance from Newstead Zone. The Foster family's car zipped down the road, finally catching up to their target just before hitting Newstead Zone.That was when the trouble started.Newstead Zone was all hills and curves, and the roads got trickier the deeper they went. The Foster's guards were new to those parts and did not know the lay of the land, so Lydia's car quickly left them in the dust.Evangeline's heart raced as the white car slipped out of sight.However, what she did not realize was that her bodyguard was even more on edge.He was responsible for the safety of the Foster family's treasured heir growing inside Evangeline. If anything happened on his watch, he knew he could never
