Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte) novel Chapter 619

Celina stood up in surprise and blurted, "Mr. Walter Gordon, Mr. Yale Foster is inside. Should I let him know you're here?"

She barely knew Walter, and any time they crossed paths, it was through David, the go-between. She was not naive enough to think Walter had come out there just for her.

Out of the blue…

"Ms. Morris, can we talk for a minute?" Walter gestured for Celina to join him.

He was supposed to have left with Trey after saying goodbye, but something inside him was restless. He ended up driving back to the funeral site.

He had expected Cole's funeral to be a long affair, but when Walter got back, the place was deserted. Weird, he thought.

Just as he was about to ask someone what happened, he spotted Celina squatting by the lounge entrance, zoning out.

It was like stumbling upon the very thing he had been searching for without even trying.

He had been wanting to talk to Celina for ages but never got the chance. At last, she was right there, and he was not about to walk away.

Celina was well aware of the tension between Walter and David, and the different sides they were on. She had always turned down requests to relay messages from Evangeline.

Faced with Walter himself, she was just as dismissive.

"Mr. Walter Gordon, I really don't think there's anything for us to talk about." Celina's gaze was intense, her face an icy mask.

She did not look at Walter with any of the deference he might have expected from someone of a lower status.

"You might not have anything to say to Mr. Walter Gordon, but you might have something to say to David's brother, Walter," he said, not giving her a chance to reject him.
