Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 594

After the car crash scare, Evangeline was not taking any chances. She and Snow Wolf hit up a diner, and she borrowed his phone to check in with Yale.

Yale's voice was rough, tinged with a thrill he could not quite mask.

"Evie, thank goodness you're safe."

Evangeline figured he was just worried about her, not reading into it too much.

However, a beat later…

"Don't bother with the old house; head straight to the hospital. It's your grandfather. He..."

Yale sounded utterly spent.

He had no idea that Evangeline had only been safe and sound for less than eight hours since her disappearance.

The Fosters could not keep a lid on it for even that short a time.

Outside the operating room, the red light flicked on, and Yale's heart sank.

Holden was a statue, his fists clenched, eyes glued to the operating room doors, not looking away for even a split second.

Yale could not hold back his emotions any longer when he saw Holden's state. His eyes welled up as he quickly moved closer and gave Holden's shoulder a reassuring pat.

Holden clung to Yale's hand like it was his only hope. "Yale, Dad is going to be okay this time, right? And Evie too, all of us Fosters are going to be just fine..."

"I was about to tell you," Yale cut in, "that Evie is safe. She's with her friends, so no worries there. She'll probably be here any minute."

"For real?" Holden, hardly daring to believe, wiped his eyes, only to hear an even more excited voice.
