Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 556

With that thought, Walter pressed on, "David, you and I both know Celina is on the other side. Has she done anything out of the ordinary lately?"

Out of the ordinary?

David's hand tightened into a fist without him realizing it.

There was one thing.

That afternoon, Celina did something she had never done before—she texted him.

[My stomach hurts. I could really go for some oatmeal.]

David, seizing the moment to be the caring boyfriend, did not hesitate to get her some oatmeal.

However, instead of a cozy night in, Celina had him meet her at a cafe.

The cafe was all class and style. David stuck out like a sore thumb with his simple oatmeal. To anyone else, he might have looked pretty ridiculous.

However, he did not mind.

The scent of coffee filled the air, but he pushed aside the cup in front of Celina and assertively placed his oatmeal before her. "Got a stomach ache, right? Try this."

In that instant, he caught a shimmer of tears in Celina's eyes.

He knew she was moved. For him, that was just the start of taking care of Celina.

Celina quietly picked up the spoon in a rare moment of compliance and took a sip from the oatmeal he brought.

The aroma was inviting, but Celina only had one sip.

"Thanks for the oatmeal, Mr. Zimmer. It's really good."

With David watching, Celina set down the spoon, her face taking on an unprecedented seriousness.

"I wanted to see you today because there's something I need to tell you.

"Evangeline, your boss' wife, is in serious trouble. Since Julia got off the hook in court, she's been fixated on nabbing Evangeline. And yeah, you're right—I'm her right-hand woman, so I end up doing her dirty work."
