Chapter 385 

As Evangeline reached for the door, Minnie’s mocking lgh out through the 

air 

“I get what you’re saying, Evangeline, but believing it is another story Remember how you talked the fe time we met? What happened instead? You silently got pregnant with Walters hd Does far surd The someone who wants a divorce? How naive must I be to keep taking your word for 

“Enough” Walter’s voice boomed, cutting off Minnie 

He had kept quiet, wanting to see just how indifferent Evangel 

could be 

However, as her hand touched the doorknob, a wave of loss hit him like a ton of bricks in that feeding instant, he sensed Evangeline was gone for good. 

The explanation he had kept to himself was down to its last chance 

Minnie picked up on Walter’s annoyance and clamped her mouth shut, careful not to push him her 

Then…. 

“Evangeline, wait.” 

Her name, called out so suddenly, made Evangeline freeze mid–step 

Ignoring the bandages crisscrossing his back, Walter sprang from the bed. It was as if he was tem would vanish on the spot, and he reached out, seizing her delicate wrist 

“Even if you don’t want to talk to me, I,” Walter’s voice wavered with nerves. “I need to talk to you I need to explain…” 

“No need,” Evangeline interrupted, her smile easing the tension. “Walter, we don’t need explanations between us.” 

She was clueless about what Walter wanted to clear up, with so much already between them–past issues with Julia, current ones with Minnie. 

What good would explanations do when they could not change the inevitable? 

She gently tapped his hand twice, a light touch that somehow weighed heavily on Walter. 

*Heal up. Once I’ve got my grandfather settled, we’ll head to the County Clerk’s Office for a divorce.” 

A subtle force hit Walter’s wrist, sapping all the strength from that once–powerful man. 

As Evangeline’s radiant eyes held him, his grip loosened. 

Evangeline’s smile shone brightly as she regained her freedom. 

“Grandpa Cole is waiting for me back home, so I’ll just say goodbye to Grandpa Trey and head out. I wont keep you guys any longer…” 

With a cheerful wave to the two in front of her, Evangeline headed straight down the stairs and made her way to the front yard.
