Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)

Chapter 445

However, how did things turn out? Evangeline went straight to Cole and said she wanted to marry Walter, and Walter was all she ever talked about

Then, Walter had taken Evangeline for granted, leaving her shattered. He adored her and could not stand seeing her so torn up. He wanted her to lean on him, to heal her broken heart. How could that have been wrong? No, he was not the one at fault there!

If anyone was to blame, it was all on Walter. He never should have married Evangeline, never should have taken her for granted, and definitely should not have gotten her pregnant!

Just thinking about that kid growing so boldly inside Evangeline's belly made Alex seethe with rage. It was like an itch he could not scratch!

Sunny Glow Beauty Salon.

Lydia's frown could have cut steel as she listened to her minions report back to her.

For the sake of her beloved daughter's marriage to Walter, and to exact her revenge, she had been determined to get rid of Evangeline's baby no matter what.

However, the latest news was that ever since Evangeline had gotten pregnant, she had rarely been seen.

Lydia's only outing recently had been a trip to Sunny Glow Beauty Salon for some pampering. If only she had known then that Minnie and Walter were an item, she would have nipped that budding romance in the bud.

Stuck with an identity that did not exactly scream 'social butterfly, Lydia mulled it over and finally decided to call Minnie.

Minnie had barely flicked on the AC when Walter vanished into thin air, not to be seen or heard from all night. No texts, no calls-Minnie was freaking out.

It was not until she spotted Walter looking like a zombie the next morning at the office that she sighed in

relief.

After some care and attention, Minnie had Walter tucked away in the break room, all set for a little romance. She had even started undoing his shirt buttons when her phone had to go and ruin the moment.

It was her mom. Minnie rolled her eyes so hard they nearly got stuck. Alas, with Walter sleeping, she tiptoed to the restroom to take the call, not wanting to wake him.

"Mom, seriously? Why are you calling now? You're about to blow my big chance!"

It was the perfect setup. Walter was out cold, and the human chaperone, David, was nowhere to be found. If she could not make her move on Walter at this moment, she would be selling herself short as a woman. Lydia listened to her daughter's exasperated voice and figured she had just stopped her from executing a romantic moment. She felt a twinge of guilt for interrupting what she thought was a cozy moment between the two, but her need to talk was pressing, and she could not afford to wait.

"Let's wrap this up quickly," her voice laced with urgency. "The person you sent me can't track down Evangeline, that sneaky brat. Ever since she holed up in her villa to take care of her pregnancy, she's been like a ghost. Can you lure her out somehow? If Evangeline so much as peeks out where our guys can see her, I'll make her regret it big time!"

Minnie was all in with that plan. Her grudge against Evangeline ran bone-deep.

Because of Evangeline, Minnie had lost Walt's love and had to masquerade as someone else just to stay close to Walter. Because of her, Minnie and her mom were left without a home, their little family torn apart and unable to come together.

Evangeline had to go-for good. That was the only way Minnie's rage would be quelled.
