Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 

Chapter 254 

“Absolutely, Walter’s my top grandson!” Trey’s eyes lit up with pride at the mention of Walter. 

“Grandpa, you’ve got seven grandsons. What’s so special about Walter?” 

Alex probably wanted to get to the bottom of that question, too. 

Trey pondered, “Out of all of them, only the oldest and Walter take after me the most. But Walter’s got his differences; he’s often not tough enough. Once he’s older, runs the company longer, and sees more of the world, he’ll get it.” 

Walter… was not tough enough? 

Evangeline recalled Walter throwing punches at Alex in the garden without a second thought. 

It hit her then that she was clueless about the Gordon family’s hardcore way of raising kids. Walter’s scary transformation had plenty to do with the Gordons‘ survival–of–the–fittest style. 

Thinking this over, Evangeline was not sure who to blame anymore. 

However, it would not be long until Walter would not be her problem. All she had to do was make sure her own kid did not end up in the Gordons‘ clutches… 

“Grandpa, it’s getting late. I should head out,” said Evangeline, excusing herself. 

Before Evangeline could get her words out, Trey jumped in with a guess. 

“Headed to bed?” 

His eyes sparkled, and he launched into a spiel, “Okay, okay, you kids were busy all day, it’s totally normal to crave some extra sleep. No need to be embarrassed about it with me.” 

Evangeline’s eyes popped wide open in astonishment. 

When had she ever mentioned wanting to sleep? She was trying to get away from the Gordons and head home, for crying out loud! 

“…” 

She tried to set the record straight, but Trey was not having any of it. 

“Since I knew you’d be coming back to sleep here tonight, I had your and Walter’s room spruced up nice and early. Why don’t you check it out, see if they’ve changed anything? And if something’s not to your liking, just tell me. I’ll take care of it!” 

Evangeline was at a loss for words. 

She finally understood that Trey was off in his own little world, tuning out anything that did not fit his 

garrative. 

“Evie, I’m not getting any younger, see, my hair’s gone all white. You and Walter better make things work, or I’ll never rest in peace!” 

Trey’s voice was heavy with emotion, and he even dabbed at a tear in front of Evangeline.
