Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 538

Chapter 538 

Little did she know, Celina found Evangeline’s sudden trust in her unbelievable. 

“Ms. Rearden, do you… really trust me?” 

After all, she was on Julia’s side. She knew all too well what Julia had planned for Evangeline next. 

“Of course. A woman’s face is half her life. I’ve entrusted you with half my life, so how could it not trust you?” replied Evangeline with a gentle smile. 

Between life and death, she handed herself over to Celina with such ease. 

Celina was a gentle and kind–hearted person. Evangeline had once seen her carefully tending to the water lilies in her beauty salon. A woman who was so patient with plants, treating them like children, could never be the type to intentionally harm others.

Given Celina’s professionalism, such a situation was unthinkable. 

“No.” Celina suddenly looked at Evangeline with a serious and cold expression. “Ms. Rearden, may I ask you something?

Evangeline answered without hesitation, “If someone trusts you, why would you hurt them?” 

Celina pressed further, “But what if not hurting them meant someone else would hurt their familly instead?” 

“That… sounds like a dilemma.” Evangeline pondered for a moment before replying, “If friends have differing views to the point of harming each other’s family, it shows that they aren’t true friends. It’s better to distance yourself from such people.”
