Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 

The surgery had been a marathon, and Dr. George’s forehead was slick with sweat. 

Everyone crowded around him, desperate for news. 

“Dr. George, how is my grandpa? Is he okay?” 

Evangeline’s voice broke with worry. 

“Don’t worry, he’s stable for now. We’ll keep an eye on him for the next twenty–four hours. If all goes well, he’ll have made it through the worst. 

“Thank you so much,” said Evangeline, her tears giving way to a small smile of relief. 

Just then, the nurses rolled Cole out. Yale, with his brothers at his side, quickly took over, pushing Cole’s bed toward his room. 

Evangeline did not even pause to look back at Dr. George. With a quick wave, she dashed off to follow the others. 

Dr. George gave a nod to 

Walter, who had not said a word the whole time, and then he walked away. The Foster family’s five brothers were scattered around the spacious hospital room, some sitting, some standing. They silently hovered around Cole’s bed. 

Evangeline’s gaze fell on Cole, once so full of warmth and life, lay still and silent. Her heart ached with an unspeakable sadness. 

She could not help but seethe at the thought of whoever was responsible for her grandfather’s condition. 

“Did you guys figure out who showed Grandpa that video? I thought we were keeping a tight lid on things. How did it slip through?” 

Yale stepped forward, his voice firm. 

“As soon as your grandpa was hospitalized, I had people on it. It was Mr. Jamison’s phone your grandpa was watching.” 

“Mr. Jamison?” 

Evangeline remembered him well. Edwin Jamison had been with the Foster family for ages, always taking such good care of Cole. That was why everyone felt comfortable leaving Cole in his hands when he got 

sick. 

Still… 

“Didn’t he realize those videos could mess with Grandpa’s mood, and hurt his health?” 

What he did… was akin to murder! 

Evangeline was stunned. 

How could a butler, who had been part of the family for years, hide such intentions? 

“He knew,” said Yale, his head lowered, as if weighed down by a heavy secret.
