Evangeline’s gaze hardened into a look that could kill, though clearly not meant for Caden. After all, without his heads–up, she would not have found Walter so fast. 

All she wanted was to cut off Walter’s manhood, to save him from his mess.. 

Then it hit her–Walter’s outrageous behavior was meant for her to see. 

A live show from Walter of the Gordon family was not something she could stumble upon every day. If she caught it on video and posted it online, would she not rake in a whole bunch of new fans? 

Evangeline did not hesitate and reached for her phone, but in the few seconds she had been lost in thought, the lively room had emptied out. Caden had slipped away when she was not looking. 

With that, the once noisy space was eerily silent, with just Evangeline and Walter left. 

Walter somehow found the energy to sit up from the couch, but he was so weak he ended up leaning heavily against Evangeline’s shoulder. Evangeline gave a firm shrug. “Walter, snap out of it! If you want to sleep, go home!” 

She was no match for Walter’s size. If he was out cold, there was no way she could drag him home without collapsing herself. 

“Huh?” Walter’s eyes fluttered open after being jostled. His normally piercing eyes had turned dull and clouded with the fog of alcohol. Then, his gaze landed on Evangeline and he cracked a wide, drunken grin. “Haha,” he laughed, reaching out and getting handsy with her, slurring his words, “Out of all the girls tonight, you’re the prettiest…” 

He had the nerve to pinch her cheek, mumbling, “Ah, such nice skin, I like it a lot.” His hand then wandered to Evangeline’s clothes, tracing her silhouette through the fabric. 

Evangeline was having none of it. She grabbed his wandering hand and yanked it away. “Cut it out, Walter! *She was not about to let Walter push her around. 

Evangeline had no reason to hold back with Walter acting like this. She nudged him back onto the couch. and quickly felt his forehead for a fever. 

If Walter’s fever was from an infection, they were in for a rough time. 

His forehead was burning up, and she almost pulled away, but it reminded her that Walter was sick and needed care–especially since he got hurt saving her. 

Feeling a mix of guilt and annoyance, she could not believe he was so careless about his injury. At the same time, she also felt sorry for him, feverish and stubborn about not going home. 

“You’re such a troublemaker.” 

Walter gave a goofy grin, his hand boldly landing on Evangeline’s chest, murmuring like he was in a dream, “Feels amazing.” 

Out of nowhere, he found the strength to grab Evangeline’s chin, his eyes turning a feverish red, his look so intense as if he was trying to see right through her.
