The Bennison clan was already itching to mess with the Gordons and the Fosters. With Julia stirring up chaos in his life, Walter’s world was anything but peaceful. 

So far, the Fosters had stayed clear of the Bennisons‘ radar. However, if Evangeline’s little stunt gave the Bennisons a way in, Walter would never be able to forgive himself. 

Walter raced through the dimly lit corridors toward the underground parking lot, his heart pounding. Without a second thought, he took out his phone and called Evangeline. 

It had been a whole month of radio silence between them. Evangeline had heard through the grapevine about Walter’s constant hangouts with Minnie, all lovey–dovey, and she had written him off as just another jerk. 

Out of the blue, Walter was calling her. 

Evangeline’s eyes widened as she saw his name flashing on her screen. This had to be some kind of joke, right? 

Her finger hovered over the answer button, but before she could tap it, the line went dead. 

What was that about? Should she call him back? Evangeline chewed on her lip, indecisive. 

Meanwhile, Walter, drenched in sweat, was practically flying to his car. He could not shake the fear that Evangeline might have gotten in touch with the Bennison family. She had no clue about the danger they represented, and if she got tangled up with them, it could spell disaster. 

No way he was going to let that happen 

With a sense of urgency, he dialed her number again, the digits etched into his memory, and started the engine. 

Each ring echoed in his ears, and with it, his anxiety spiked. 

“Evangeline, come on, pick up,” he muttered under his breath. 

As if by some miracle, her voice came through, clear as day: 

“Walter, what’s up? Why are you calling?” she asked, her tone distant and detached. 

Their relationship had frayed to the point where words seemed pointless. However, Walter needed to hear her voice more than ever at this point. 

“Speak if you’ve got something to say. If not, just hang up.” That was the golden rule for keeping things calm between two people. 

“Are you at a place called Sunny Glow Beauty Salon right now?” 

Walter did everything he could to keep h eavesdrop, he even whispered. 

voice steady. To make sure no one around Evangeline could 

“How’d you know that?” Evangeline was taken aback, but then it clicked. “Walter, did you send someone to follow me?” 

She did not need to think hard to know why Walter would do such a thing.
