Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 343

Chapter 343 

It had been ages since Evangeline had felt this kind of warmth. 

In an instant, she was reminded of her mother, who had left the world too soon. 

She could not help but wonder if Julieta was heaven–sent, a way to fill the vold her mother’s absence had 

left. 

Julieta, sensing the prolonged silence, worried she might have crossed a line and quickly added, “If it’s too much, you don’t have to talk about it…” 

“It’s not that. I’m just trying to figure out how to put it into words,” said Evangeline, searching for the right way to express her tangled thoughts. 

Julieta had no idea about Evangeline’s situation with Walter. Honestly, she did not feel like going the hassle of explaining their complicated history. It was downright confusing. 

Then, like a lightbulb flicking on, Evangeline’s eyes sparkled with an idea. 

“Mrs. Lewis… Let’s say you’ve got this friend, right? And you’ve told them you’re done, you want to keep your distance. But now, you’re in a jam and need to ask for their help. How would you break the ice?” 

Julieta looked a little lost at the question. 

Evangeline slumped, feeling defeated. 

She admitted her thoughts were slightly jumbled, but she was doing her best. Ever since she got pregnant, It felt like her brain was on a constant loop of ‘eat, nap, repeat‘. It was turning to mush. Even the easy stuff was getting hard to figure out. 

“Er, if you’re stumped too, I’ll just… keep thinking,” she mumbled. 

“Miss, I might not get all that complicated stuff you’re talking about, but I think when you need a favor, just come out with it. Why beat yourself up? Everyone needs a hand sometimes, right? We can’t expect. help for nothing, but we could trade something for it!” 

It was like Julieta had just snapped Evangeline out of a trance. 

Evangeline’s eyes shone with clarity. “That’s genius!” 

She did not skimp on the praise, shooting Julieta an enthusiastic thumbs–up. 

“Mrs. Lewis, you’re amazing. You’ve cracked a super tough nut for me! Thanks a bunch!” 

Julieta just chuckled warmly, then gently nudged her. “You’re welcome, Miss, but now that we’ve got that sorted, isn’t it time for lunch?” 

“Totally!” 

With the food back in her mouth, Evangeline realized how hungry she was. 

The delicious smells had her fingers twitching excitedly, and she dug in enthusiastically. 

After dinner, Evangeline finished her nightly routine and laid on her big bed, feeling very at ease.

She glanced at her phone–it was eight o’clock. 

Walter was probably just off work but not asleep yet, she figured. 

With th 

that thought, she dialed his number. 

In the Gordon Group’s president’s office, Walter was busy tweaking a project plan that David had already given the thumbs up. 

When Evangeline’s call popped up, Walter’s gut reaction was not to pick up. Instead, he felt so swamped with work that his eyes were going cross–eyed. 

It was not until the ringtone echoed a second time that he snapped back to reality and realized Evangeline was actually trying to reach him.
