บททั้งหมดของ Unmasking the Heiress: บทที่ 501 - บทที่ 510

Of course, looking back was pointless. The moment she cried out for her mother, her cover was blown wide open.The memory sparked excitement in Lydia as she hurriedly explained, "I made a break for it, and I'm calling you on the driver's phone, Julia. How was I supposed to find you? She doesn't have a dime to her name, and you'll need to send the cab fare to the driver."Minnie's worries melted away with Lydia's words.Considering how much the Foster family resented their mother, Lydia's escape meant she had truly shaken them off. Minnie realized she did not have to worry anymore.The taxi smoothly took a turn toward Newstead Zone.Once they reached the spot Minnie had sent, she greeted Lydia, settled the fare, and even slipped the driver a cool 200-dollar tip.The taxi zipped away, not heading back downtown but pulling over in a quiet corner instead.The driver's gaze was piercing. Stepping out, he dialed a number right away. "Boss, I've spotted the target. Do we grab her now,

Lydia's thoughts turned to her estranged husband, and her expression darkened."Why waste your thoughts on that loser? He promised me the moon and the stars, but when push came to shove? The moment the Fosters got involved, it all fell apart. He dumped everything on me! Let him do whatever he wants. For all I care, he might as well be dead!"The feud between her parents had all started because of a woman named Yessica, who was Evangeline's mother."Mom, it's just us here. You can tell me the truth. How did Yessica really die?"Lydia turned pale and dodged the question awkwardly. "Why bring her up out of the blue? She was nothing but trouble, and I'd rather not even speak of her!""But I have to know what happened, right?!" Minnie could not stand it anymore. "Yessica was the darling of the Foster family. There's no way they'll just let this slide. If her death has nothing to do with you, then we don't have to worry about the Fosters. However, if it does, I need to be ready!"Lydia

In the rundown bungalow of Newstead Zone…The Foster family's bodyguard brigade stormed the yard. The folks guarding Minnie and Lydia were quickly overpowered, and the Fosters' top bodyguard marched right in and escorted the mother-daughter duo out.Yale, the cool uncle, took over the whole Lydia and daughter investigation, leaving Evangeline with just one job: keep herself and the bun in the oven safe.As she rode back to the villa, Evangeline stared out the window.The trees zipped past in a blur, but she could not shake off the feeling. Was it anxiety or sadness weighing on her?Lydia was in the net. Would she spill the beans about her mother's death?What about Minnie? Would her true identity come to light?Evangeline's mind was a whirlwind of unanswered questions, leaving her restless and uneasy."Miss, you're looking a bit pale. Maybe you should take a break?" suggested the driver understandingly.Evangeline dismissed the idea with a wave of her hand. "No, let's just hea

Walter's rage boiled over. His fists were clenched so tight that they could turn coal into diamonds, but he did not budge an inch.David, who had just rushed to the scene, was clueless about the drama that had just played out. He only caught a glimpse of Evangeline whisking by and quickly asked, "Mr. Walter Gordon, I saw Mrs. Gordon take off. Are we still sending people after her?"David, being the go-to guy with connections, recognized Hank in a heartbeat, unlike Walter.The Gordons had been keeping tabs on Evangeline, shadowing her every move for her safety. Walter had bolted over, panicking that Evangeline had strayed from her usual path home, fearing the worst.However, what he found was far from danger. Evangeline was safe and sound, having dinner with some guy!"Forget it!" Walter snapped, instantly regretting his outburst. He caught David's hesitation and shot him a fierce look. "I said no chasing, not no following. What's gotten into you, David? You've been off your game!"

"Walter, why are you creeping around and following me?" demanded Evangeline with her arms folded, before Walter could even get a word out."I..." Walter stammered, his face a mask of stiffness, words failing him as he faced Evangeline's frosty demeanor.He was oblivious to the fact that his behavior only reminded her of a different, more painful reason for her coldness."Did you think you hadn't embarrassed me enough earlier? Is that why you're shadowing me, to add insult to injury?"She would never be able to erase the memory of what Walter had done to her.In the backseat of the car, he treated her as if she were nothing more than an object for his amusement.At the restaurant, he had the nerve to call her out in front of everyone, labeling her as someone who flirts too much.So then, she was determined to confront Walter and find out what game he was playing."Evangeline, you've got it all wrong, I never...""Never what?" Evangeline cut him off without a hint of politeness.
