Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 576

"Yeah, Evie should be okay. However, David, the poor kid, is sick, and we've got no news on him. You need to take care of yourself right now, and don't stress. Evie's got things under control, and she'll call as soon as there's any word from David."

Cole wrapped an arm around Celina, offering her a comforting squeeze that sent warmth flooding through her. In the midst of that, Celina's mind flickered to the mission Evangeline had left with her grandfather.

"Mr. Foster, have you found your favorite celebrity yet? Since we can't do much else, let's try to track down the star you're into. That way, when Ms. Evangeline gets back, she can show you what to do next."

Pushing down the flutter of anxiety in her chest, Celina flashed Cole a brave smile.

"Yeah, could you give me a hand? Let's start by tapping this icon, and then..."

Together, the two huddled on the couch, fingers dancing over the smartphone's screen, which was displaying WebSphere.

Holden watched the tender scene unfold before him, a sense of warmth blooming in his chest.

His father, it seemed, was finally getting on board with the latest trends.

As for the troubling news of Evangeline's disappearance, Holden had made sure it was locked down tight. No whisper of it would reach Cole's ears, not even if he scoured the Internet.

Once Holden grasped what they were up to, he could not resist joining the quest to help Cole find his idol…

Meanwhile, in the hospital, David's fever spiked to a worrisome 39 degrees Celsius, leaving him in a hazy state of delirium.

The bodyguards stood by, watching David slowly recover with the help of an IV drip. They could not stop themselves from muttering their concerns.

"What a mess this is. We went to save this guy, and now we've lost our Ms. Evangeline. What are we going to do when we get back..."

In his daze, David's eyes fluttered open.

What did he just hear? The Foster family's Ms. Evangeline was missing?
