Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)
Bitten Once Shy Forever 121

Chapter 121

Evie you're acting up weird today Are you keeping secrets from me? Roslyn's gaze sharpened, silently waiting for Evangeline to tell the truth

Since when have I ever kept anything from you? And with the bond we share, why would I start now? Evangeline, clueless about what was really going on, remained defiant

Roslyn was not in a rush to call her out, though. She casually flicked the movie tickets in her hand, deftly switching topics. "The movie starts in ten minutes Let's get to the ticket check!" At that, Evangeline let out a huge sigh of relief

As long as Roslyn was not grilling her with that intense stare, she was content!

While getting their tickets checked, Evangeline could not help but notice Roslyn's outfit was extra flashy today, and her makeup was on point, like she was ready for her close-up.

If they were just here for a midnight flick to ogle some eye candy, Roslyn would not need to get all dolled

up

"Roslyn, is there something special about this screening?" Evangeline asked, her suspicion having grown. Was this just a spur-of-the-moment movie invite from her? "Oh, it's no big deal." Roslyn shrugged it off.

"A buddy of mine's new movie just dropped, and the movie's secret backer rented out the midnight show for the cast. My friend's the

star and already caught the premiere, so he passed the ticket on to me!" she said, giving the tickets a little wave. "I even snagged an extra one just so we could watch it together.

It was just a movie ticket, but for them-one a celeb and the other a princess with a golden touch in business-

begging for tickets seemed a bit out of place. Could they not just book the whole theater? Evangeline did not beat around the bush with her question "Do we have to do this?"

"It's not the same, Evie. These tickets were VIP, straight from the set! Plus.."

Roslyn gave a sly grin, leaned in, and whispered, "Sure, the ticket's just paper, but it's who you sit with that

counts!

"I heard from a buddy that the movie's secret sponsor is coming with an entourage. And though I'm the talk of the town, I need to rub elbows with the right crowd to make it big in the movies. "That's why I snagged you for this ticket heist, get it?"

Evangeline nodded, finally connecting the dots

Roslyn was aiming for the stars; mingling with the moneyed crowd could give her that extra push.

"Why keep me in the dark? I would have glammed up to make us shine!" Evangeline had tried hard to hide every imperfection for this casual look

"Come on, Evie, you're a knockout no matter what. Let's roll!"

They entered the theater, side by side, to find it deserted. They settled into their seats and waited.

""Roslyn, think your big-shot backer will show?"

Roslyn was not sure but put on a brave face. "They'll be here. My source is solid!"

The cinema plunged into darkness, the only light coming from the flickering movie screen.

Shadows streamed in, parading past the glow, one by one.

Evangeline narrowed her eyes, catching a glimpse of a familiar figure in the dim light, while Roslyn watched her with wide-eyed surprise. Was that... Could it really be Walter?
