Novel1X Chapter 28 +25 BONUS To Evangeline's surprise, the receptionists barely acknowledged her. Their eyes flicked up before returning to their tasks as if she were invisible.
One of them sneered, "Looks like we've got all kinds in this big forest. Thinking your money can buy Mr. Walter Gordon's attention? He's not just anyone's for the taking." "I'm Walter's wife. Where is he?" Evangeline shot back, not in the mood for their games.
They laughed. "Miss, you look like you're somebody, so why the sudden delusion? The president's wife just delivered his breakfast." "Mrs. Walter Gordon? Breakfast?"

Oscar raced after Evangeline, sweat beading on his forehead as he frantically texted Walter. As Walter's right- hand man, he had reached the limit of what he could do.

Despite the chill, Julia was dressed in an elegant white dress with a daring slit and a bare waist. With just a touch, their skin would meet. 1 Evangeline walked in at that moment and caught the intimate exchange.
"Looking for a new thrill since hcooking has lost its appeal?" she quipped, her voice dripping with icy sarcasm.
Walter's gaze turned stormy, but he did not push Julia away. Instead, he accepted a bite of the cake, remarking, "A change of pace can be refreshing." Julia beamed at Evangeline. "You might not want to butt heads with Walt, Evangeline. I heard your grandpa is so sick and broke that he can't even afford a doctor. If you tick Walt off and he cuts off the funds for your grandpa's care, it would be a costly mistake." Evangeline's lips twisted in a mocking smile.

"What? Got a stutter? Go fix it!"
"Ever thought of acting like a proper lady, Evangeline?" Julia's face flushed with rage. She had always used her poised persona to highlight Evangeline's crassness-a tried and true strategy.
