Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524 

Evangeline’s smile was a stark contrast to Julia’s dark expression. 

Since hooking up with Walter, they had not even made love. Worse still, here Evangeline was with a baby! 

Evangeline’s words felt like a slap in the face, a subtle way to mock her. 

“Sure. Walt will be thrilled!” 

Julia’s ability to switch expressions was lightning–fast. Just a blink, and her frown turned into a grin. 

However, Evangeline was not interested in seeing that smile and waved her hand dismissively. 

“I’ve got stuff to do, so I’ll be off.” 

She nodded slightly and was about to leave when Julia picked up the conversation again. 

“Mm–hmm, Evangeline, I know you’re busy. Oh, how forgetful of me! I left Walt waiting. I better go find him, or he might get upset,” she said, making it sound like it was a big deal, and gestured toward the distance. 

Evangeline followed her gaze and saw a sleek black Rolls Royce parked by the curb. There stood Walter, tall and patient, waiting by the car, 

Julia, worried that Evangeline might not understand, helpfully added, “You know how difficult it was for Walt and me to finally be together, right? I’m always scared of making him mad. You understand, don’t you?” 

Evangeline’s eyes dimmed, and she forced a faint smile. “Of course, I understand.” 

She turned and got into her car, unable to hide the sadness in her eyes. 

Maybe in this relationship, she was always the one tangled up in it. 

Walter would choose Julia over her without a second thought. She had known this for a long time, yet it hurt her every time. 

She could not comprehend what kind of deep feelings would make him ditch work and drive to the courthouse to wait for her to finish her trial. 

Did Walter help Julia get through this trial unscathed? 

Suddenly, the little baby in her belly kicked, reminding Evangeline of the tiny life within her. 

She lovingly caressed her stomach.

She should appreciate what she had. Having a baby with Walter was more than enough. 

Yessica’s case was resolved at last, and the criminals got what they deserved. 

Her Grandpa Cole, uncles, and the baby were fine. As long as her family stayed safe and happy, she would be content. 

Unfortunately, Evangeline did not know that the situation between Walter and Julia was not as Julia had claimed. Walter’s meeting with Julia was because of something else.
