Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 582

Still, there was one thing she was not sure about.

"Evangeline, do you think Walter will come rescue you all by himself? He has to, right? If not for anything else, then at least for the baby you're carrying. He wouldn't want you to die here all alone..."

The more Julia thought about it, the more thrilled she became. With a sharp snap of her fingers, the bodyguard approached with utmost respect.

"Silence her."

She could not stand to listen to Evangeline anymore, not even a whisper.

Meanwhile, Walter, racing toward the abandoned warehouse, was startled by a strange number flashing on his phone. It was Julia's voice that greeted him when he answered.

"My dear Walt, you must be so worried. Missing me, are you?"

Walter was frantic and fuming, quickening his pace, struggling to keep his composure.

"Where have you taken Evangeline? Julia, if you lay a finger on her, you'll regret it!"

However, Julia was no longer intimidated by his threats.

"So, you're not scared that Evangeline might die by my hand? Seems like you're not that fond of her after all. Hahaha!"

Julia pulled the phone away, but her voice was so shrill that Walter heard every word crystal clear.

"Sweet, sweet Evangeline, can you hear me now? You're in the clutches of someone who despises you, who'd be thrilled if you dropped dead this second. And the guy you thought you'd have a family with? He doesn't care about you one bit and is even trying to play tough with me!"

Evangeline was bound to a cold metal table, her fists balled up in silent fury. The adhesive over her mouth reduced her voice to nothing more than frustrated whimpers.

She felt utterly powerless, forced to overhear Julia's taunting words to Walter.

"Trading one woman for another, especially one you're into, sounds like a sweet deal, doesn't it, my Walt? So... are you in or what?

"And just so you know, if you want Evangeline and the little troublemaker she's carrying to make it out alive, don't even think about getting sneaky and calling the cops! You're aware of the Bennison family's reach, aren't you?"

For Walter, it was a shock to hear the Bennison name fall from Julia's lips for the first time.

It confirmed his worst fears: Julia was backed by the Bennisons, the same family that had been hungrily eyeing the Fosters and Gordons.
