Chapter 801

After a couple of drinks, Evangeline's cheeks were a rosy pink. Feeling the buzz, she leaned heavily against Roslyn's shoulder."Roslyn, you're not keeping secrets from me, are you?" she asked, lifting her chin a bit and taking another sip.Roslyn, who had been all wrapped up in thoughts about Evangeline, was taken aback by the sudden question and blurted, "Of course not, you know we don't have secrets between us.""You're fibbing!" Evangeline teased, her eyes drifting to Yale's face. "If you're not hiding anything, why does Uncle Yale keep glancing over here? Spill it, are you and my Uncle Yale... you know, tying the knot soon?""Um..." Roslyn's face turned a shade of crimson, whether from the alcohol or embarrassment. "Actually... Yes, we are."She had planned to wait until Evangeline felt better about sharing the news, but since she was asked point-blank, there was no point in keeping it a secret.Evangeline's smile was one of pure joy. "Your happiness is my happiness."With

Holden was fuming too, so enraged that he could practically feel his teeth grinding."That Walter is out of line, rushing into a divorce like that! Does he think the Foster family would stoop to clinging onto him?"Yale, however, did not see it the same way as his brothers.At first, he just had his suspicions, but after hearing what James had to say, he was sure about Walter's motives."Maybe... Walter has his tough spots."He did not want to tell Walter's situation to his brothers, but his conscience would not let him stand by and watch them hate Walter so much. After all, Walter was probably just trying to shield Evangeline.It was a sad truth that those two kids were star-crossed, with fate always cruelly tearing them apart.Holden could not stand to hear it. "Yale, what are you even saying? You're always the one who's got Evie's back, and now, when she's getting pushed around, you're defending Walter, that jerk?"We all heard what James said. Walter doesn't want Evie holdi

Chapter 803

"You're talking about Gordon Group, right?"Cuddly Cutie, since when did you start second-guessing herself? He's just a guy. Out with the old, in with the new, right? What's there to hang onto? You're divorced, so why keep him on your mind?"Snow Wolf's words were laid-back but hit Evangeline right in the feels.She understood, however, that Snow Wolf was not trying to sting her. He was just trying to nudge her to move on, to let her know that Walter was in the rearview mirror and she should not waste her feelings on him anymore."It's not like that," she protested."Oh? Then what's it like?" Snow Wolf did not miss a beat, pushing for an answer.In his eyes, Evangeline was not just the person who signed his paychecks; she was a friend. No way would he have ever dared to ask such a bold question otherwise."It's kind of a long story, and I can't really put it into words."Evangeline tried to brush off the question, but then it hit her—there was something she had not considered.

Trey huffed scornfully. "Bringing this up now is pointless."If Evie could go through with divorcing you, she's definitely over you. That girl's got a stubborn streak, and she wouldn't have walked away unless she was really hurt."Being divorced is for the best. It saves you from messing up someone else's daughter and spares me the embarrassment of facing my old friends in the afterlife!"The more Trey ranted, the angrier he got. When he finally looked up, he saw Walter staring with wide eyes, completely stunned. Trey had been rambling on, but Walter had not reacted at all, which infuriated Trey even more."What's with the bug eyes? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?"What Trey did not realize was that his loud tirade could not even snag Walter's attention, who suddenly burst into laughter."Yeah, why would she divorce if she hadn't given up?"His laughter faded as he snapped back to reality and faced Trey. "Grandpa, you and the Foster uncles couldn't be more right—I'm a

Chapter 806

Walter could only keep his heartbreak locked away inside, never to be shared with anyone. After all, Evangeline had already said those words.She did not care about the misunderstandings, did not care about the past. She had told him she wanted to be with him, but he was the one who stubbornly pushed her away. What chance did he have for regret at this point?He was the one who had pushed Evangeline away, and at this moment, he was the one filled with regret and pain.However, if enduring that pain meant protecting Evangeline, then it was all worth it.All of a sudden…Knock, knock, knock!Walter snapped back to reality, realizing someone was at his door."Who's there?" He quickly dried his tears, trying to sound normal, but his voice was raspy, giving away his feelings.Through the heavy door, he heard Alex's easygoing voice. "Walter, can you open the door? It's me, your brother Alex."The name Alex was nothing but a bad joke in Walter's world. It was pure, unadulterated ir

Chapter 807

Alex barely gave Walter's words a second thought, his laughter growing even more triumphant.As if a thought had just struck him, he said, "Oh, Walter, I nearly forgot to pass on a message from Grandpa."The chairman of Gordon Group has called a shareholders' meeting, and you, as the CEO, have to be there. Don't forget to show up."Trey had not bothered with the company for years, so a sudden meeting like that had to mean something big.A sense of dread weighed heavily on Walter's heart.From Alex's cocky demeanor, it was obvious that whatever was happening was going to work out in his favor.Whatever that advantage might be…Walter's eyes snapped open, and everything was pitch black.Could it be that his relentless convincing had finally paid off, and Grandpa... actually agreed to let Alex run the company?Why at this moment?After all his failed attempts to persuade, just when he was ready to completely shut down any chance of Alex returning to the company, why did Grandpa

However, the shareholder stood his ground, even more emboldened. "Making money for us shareholders is your job as CEO. What else is there to say?"Walter scoffed, about to retort, when Trey cut in."Let's settle down. We've all been in this company for ages. It's not too kind to corner my grandson like this, right?"This decision, though made by Walter alone, affects us all. We rise and fall as one. I'm sure you all grasp the meaning of that."Trey's statement was profound and resonant.The financial hit from Walter's blunder in Southern Crownlands was spread out among all the shareholders. Naturally, the Gordons, who messed up, were on the hook for most of it. However, the shareholders barely made a peep.Gordon Group had been a gold mine for years, and they were loaded. Missing a few bucks from the shareholders was no sweat off their backs.Besides, it was the investors who were really leaning on Gordon Group to turn their investments into big bucks. No way were they going to

The shareholders made their choice swiftly, barely pausing to think.It made sense, though. Under Alex's leadership, the company had never stumbled, and they had all reaped the rewards.Just then, Trey's secretary's voice cut through the silence, firm and official, "Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the new CEO of Gordon Group, Mr. Alex Gordon. Let's welcome him with a round of applause and hear what he has to say!"Alex was decked out in his sharpest suit, looking every bit the part of a guy who knew victory was in the bag.However, the wheelchair was a pain, not getting around that. Without bothering to stand, Alex grabbed the mic from his secretary and excitedly said, "Big thanks to all you shareholders for believing in me. From here on out, I'm all in. We're going to rake in the cash and rocket Gordon Group to new heights! You guys are the best."Alex kept it short and sweet, but his few words were packed with big dreams.Inside, however, he was buzzing with even more en

Chapter 810

Walter was a storm of emotions such as bitterness, anger…However, then he thought of Alex, once in his shoes, and he wondered if he had any right to feel that way at all.If Alex had fallen into the abyss by his doing, then who had nudged him toward its edge? Was it his grandfather, who had stubbornly wanted him to inherit the family business, or was it Evangeline, the girl he loved but could not win over?As Walter pondered, the bitterness that once filled his heart mysteriously melted away.He realized that things were unfolding as they should. What was the point of holding onto hate?After all, he had escaped the Gordons' tangled web of troubles, especially the rigged deal with the Southern Crownlands diamond mines. He should be feeling light as a feather.Sometimes, taking a step back gives him a clearer view of the whole landscape.With that new perspective, Walter had an epiphany: he should be grateful for Alex's arrival.Unbeknownst to Walter, David had been reeling fro
