All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Walter was angered at the sight of Evangeline causing chaos in the dead of night.He was sure the figure he had spotted was not Evangeline, even though they wore identical helmets. After Walter and Caden came up empty in their racetrack search, he dialed her number."Where am I, you ask?" Evangeline's voice stretched out teasingly, "At home, but I'm about to head to the hospital to check on your sweetheart. You know, I've heard that mistresses get a rough deal these days. Should I give her a taste of her own medicine?"Walter's expression turned stormy. "Evangeline! What are you trying to stir up now?""She insisted on this meeting, so let's make it at the hospital," she said, cutting off Walter without a second thought and abruptly ending the call with a decisive click.…Julia lay on the hospital bed, the very picture of vulnerability. Half-sitting, her face was a canvas of pallor as she tearfully shared the day's harrowing events with her online audience.Aiming for stardom,

"Miss, you know how it is—gossip spreads faster than wildfire. How about I call in the PR team to sort this mess out? Give it a few days, and those keyboard warriors will have moved on to their next target," offered Wade."Hold on. Let things play out just a bit more," said Evangeline calmly, unfazed. If Julia was so keen on grabbing the spotlight, Evangeline was more than happy to help her shine—right before taking her down a notch.Wade watched Evangeline, who seemed to enjoy the drama unfold, and felt exasperated. She had the full weight of her family's power behind her, yet she stubbornly refused to use it, letting some nobody strut around like she owned the place.Wade was about to try his luck at persuading her again when her phone buzzed with a call from her eldest uncle, Yale Foster."Hey, Uncle Yale, you've just finished a Peacekeeping mission. Didn't you head off to Bali for a vacation? What's up with calling me?" Evangeline's voice was playful.Her uncle was a tough guy

"Can I get your name, sir? Are you aware that the lady next to you is rumored to be a homewrecker? What's your connection to Evangeline? Got any comments as her alleged beau? And just how old is her current boyfriend, if you don't mind me asking?" The reporter fired off questions, each more pointed than the last, clearly a fan who had been swayed by Julia's influence."Listen, you need to watch your words. I could sue you for slander on behalf of my client. And for your information, I'm James, this lady's attorney," said James courteously, though he was already plotting to teach this reporter a thing or two about 'experience' at a later time.The crowd buzzed at the mention of James' name."Holy smokes! James! The top lawyer from Halcyonia, the miracle worker, Mr. James Foster himself!""Doesn't he usually take on those massive international cases worth billions?"Young as he was, he had knocked out a string of tough cases, making a big name for himself in the legal world. There h

The scandal had escalated beyond control. With Walter unreachable, Julia dropped her sick act. No point in faking illness when her home was on the line.She hailed a cab and rushed back, only to find her house surrounded by a thick crowd. Thanks to the police Andrew had called, she managed to push her way through. That short stretch to her doorstep took an agonizingly long time, and the crowd's wandering hands did not let her pass without incident.She stumbled into the yard, a mess from the confrontation. There was Evangeline, the picture of composed indifference, swinging with her shades on, while James stood close by. Bodyguards hovered, shielding her from the sun with their umbrellas.She looked every bit the untouchable mob heiress.Andrew and Lydia, bolstered by the sight of their darling daughter and the cops on the scene, hurried down to face off with Evangeline."Officer, can you believe this? Our own daughter storms into our home, threatens to kick us out, and tosses our

After enduring a whirlwind of events, Evangeline savored a restful night's sleep, a serenity she had not known for years.Her mother's voice and laughter were slowly fading from memory. She clung to her mother's photographs, terrified of forgetting the precious moments they shared.Gazing around her childhood home, the bedroom she knew so well, her once-distant memories sharpened into focus, drawing her nearer to her mother's essence.The house was theirs alone at last.At the crack of dawn, assistant Wade showed up at Evangeline's new place, armed with the day's necessary paperwork.Wade surveyed the house, which Evangeline had lovingly restored to its former childhood charm, cozy and tasteful."What caught your eye?" Evangeline inquired, noticing Wade's curious gaze."Just picturing you growing up here. Beats a hotel stay any day. That family sure got more than their money's worth over the years." Wade had learned of Andrew's misdeeds and could not help but feel outraged for E
