Anyone else would be fuming if they were the subject of such talk.Minnie had been playing the long game at the office. She timed her moves perfectly and swooped in when everyone else steered clear of Walter.She was stirring the pot, hoping to get tongues wagging. After all, if the whole office started buzzing about her and Walter being more than just colleagues, Walter would find it a lot harder to cut her loose.She pretended to be all flustered but secretly thrilled as she picked up a stack of papers and sashayed into the office.The moment Minnie learned that Walter and Evangeline were done, she hatched a plan. She was going to make her move while Walter was down in the dumps, and she was going to make sure he fell head over heels for her.That way, she would lock down the title of Mrs. Gordon of the Gordon family for good. Evangeline, that snake, would be forced out with no way back into the fold.Kicking her own half-sister to the curb did not even make Minnie blink. She b

Lounging on the garden rocking chair, Trey enjoyed his coffee and casually rang up Walter. "Walter, swing by the house tonight, I've got something to discuss with you."Walter did not have a clue about treating his wife Evangeline right. If Trey did not step in and set him straight, they might end up with divorce papers. What then? Where would he find another gem like Evie for a granddaughter-in-law?"Grandpa, I'm swamped with work. Can't make it home," declined Walter without a second thought.He had plans with Minnie that evening, and bailing was not an option.However, what weighed on him the most was his rocky relationship with Evangeline. He was not even sure if he should spill the beans about the pregnancy to his grandfather, much less face him head-on.Walter, a titan in the boardroom known for his cutthroat decisiveness, found himself unusually hesitant, trying to dodge his problems with half-hearted excuses.The realization stung. That was not him at all.Even so, what

"Evie, what brings you here?" Cole asked, his voice filled with a happy surprise."Oh, what's the matter, Grandpa? You don't want me here? Maybe I should just head back?" Evangeline teased, but her body language said the opposite.She sat on the couch next to Cole and tossed her bag onto the coffee table without a second thought. She clearly was not going anywhere."Now that you've made it here, where do you think you're going?" said Cole, half-joking, half-worried, as he grabbed her hand. "Evie, don't forget, you're always welcome here, anytime. I'm just concerned about you, you know? You're having a baby, and you should be taking it easy."Evangeline caught the worry in Cole's eyes and quickly reached out to give his hand a reassuring pat. "You're fretting over nothing, aren't you? This little one inside me is tough as nails. Mrs. Lewis even told me it's better to keep moving when you're pregnant, instead of sitting around like everyone says. It's good for the baby, as long as I'

Trey smacked his leg and spat out, "Run through it again? At this rate, that boy and Minnie will secretly have a kid before we know it!"'Poor Evie,' Trey thought, shaking his head. How did she fall head over heels for the black sheep of the family? She would have been better off with Alex, not Walter, the troublemaker. The latest fiasco had Trey enraged, and he could not dredge up a single happy thought about Walter. However, this was no time for regrets. It was time for action.His eyes smoldering, he barked orders at Thomas. "Find out where that no-good grandson of mine is taking his date. We're going to crash their little party!"Thomas, taken aback by Trey's intensity, could hardly believe what he was hearing. "Mr. Gordon, you mean to—""We're going to catch him red-handed!" Trey declared, his face stern but his voice steady.What kind of grandfather would go on a grandson-stalking mission? However, Walter had crossed the line, and Trey's pride was the last thing on his mind.

Evangeline fought hard to keep her composure, forcing back the tears threatening to spill back.She paused in the act of removing her bracelet, wanting to say something to cushion the blow of what was essentially calling off her engagement, to warn Trey before it happened.However, Trey seemed distracted, his attention elsewhere.Thomas was well aware that his dealings could tarnish the Gordon family's reputation, so he was extra careful coming and going from their villa.He had planned to meet with Trey, but he always made sure to check his surroundings before making an appearance.What he did not expect was to spot Evangeline deep in conversation with Trey.He had no desire to bump into anyone but Trey, so he waited quietly to the side. Time dragged on, and the grandfather-granddaughter duo seemed to have an endless conversation.Thomas checked his watch, pacing back and forth with impatience, before he cautiously peeked out from where Evangeline could not see.Trey, with his
