The big guy glared and growled when he talked to Walter, but the moment he looked at Minnie, it was like he flipped a switch. His moves softened, and his eyes lit up with a gentle glow.
It was like watching a fierce tiger turn into a purring kitten, all thanks to some magic spell.
However, what he did not realize was that he was poking the bear–Walter’s bear.
Since when did the heir to the Gordon empire take that kind of nonsense?
Blame Evangeline for not picking a private spot for their coffee date! He, the secret tag–along, was caught in the spotlight!
Still, ticked off as he was, Walter remained composed,
“Look, mister, you have to have the goods if you want to play the thief. And what do you have? That belly full of blubber?”
He rested his cheek in his hand, casually brushed off Minnie’s touch, and did not even bother to look up as he spoke.
It was a clear diss, and it hit the mark.
The guy’s hand shot up, his black cap tumbled off, and there was Walter’s striking face for all to see.
The crowd gasped as one.
“Holy smokes, is that who I think it is? Walter? The big boss of Gordon Group?”
“Totally. I smooch his picture, like, hundreds of times a day. I’ve even counted his pores, so I can’t be wrong!”
Evangeline had been just about to get up and say hi to Walter when she overheard that wild confession. She shivered. Who even did that–kiss a photo hundreds of times and count someone’s pores?
However, her thoughts were quickly interrupted by a voice that cut through the chatter.
“Aren’t Walter and our Evangeline still hitched? What’s the deal with this chick?”
The room buzzed with shock.
“They’re obviously close. Does she not get that Walter’s taken?”
“Guys, it hit me–this is the same girl who embarrassed herself at Evangeline’s birthday bash, right? I heard she’s the one Alex from the Gordon family brought from overseas, named Kast… Kast…”
When the person could not spit out the name, someone else jumped in.
“Minnie? No wonder she looked so familiar. She’s the one who tried to one–up Evangeline in front of everyone! Back then, I was like, why is this new girl all up in Evangeline’s business? Now it’s crystal clear!”
“She must be crushing on Walter. How could she not go after Evangeline, the wife with the ring to prove it?
“So she’s the type who looks all sweet and innocent but plays dirty when no one’s watching?”
