Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)
Bitten Once Shy Forever 213

Chapter 213

With Evangeline's rise to power came more people to manage and more. people to depend on her. She used her practiced tone to deflect any risk from unknown callers.

However, she was clueless that David's voice, laced with urgency, would come through the other end. "Mrs. Gordon, you need to get over to Gordon Group, like, now. All five uncles are here, and they've got Mr. Walter Gordon cornered in his office. I don't know what's going down, but it's super intense, and I'm freaking out about the boss."

David's words came out with a quiver, as if he was on the verge of tears.

Evangeline's brow instantly creased with worry. What on earth were her uncles up to at the Gordon Group building?

The tone of David's voice spelled trouble, and nothing good at that.

With no time to waste, Evangeline jumped into her car and sped off to Gordon Group.

Little did she know, in Walter's office at that very moment, the Foster brothers were seething with anger, unable to contain their fury at Walter's audacious comments.

"This guy's too polite for his own good. Guys, let's teach him a lesson!"

Led by Holden, the other four raised their fists, ready to rearrange Walter's infuriatingly handsome face.

Walter tried to brace for impact, but his ears picked up the sound of frantic footsteps in the hallway.

The steps were erratic, rushing straight toward his office.

David was always on guard; he would not let just anyone hang around outside.

So the woman in heels could only be one person-Evangeline!

Walter's mind raced, and he made a split-second decision to risk it all.

He was betting that the woman about to burst through the door was Evangeline, there to save the day.

If he was wrong, well, he would just have to take a beating from the five brothers and then lick his wounds. Five brothers, 10 fists, they came at Walter from all sides.

The throbbing pain pulled at the injury in his lower abdomen, forcing a pained shout from his lips.

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed from the doorway.

Evangeline marched in, her white high heels clicking against the floor with each determined step. She barely had time to catch her breath when she spotted Walter, looking like he had gone a few rounds with a boxing bag, his eyes swollen and dark. "Are you guys fighting?" she gasped in disbelief. Her uncles, ambitious and usually so level-headed, were brawling in the office over her?

If she and Walter ever split, the Gordons and the Fosters would be full-on archenemies. Even so, what good would this showdown do for the Fosters? She was sure her uncles had a better grasp on the situation than she did. With a heavy heart, she could only sigh. Family ties have a way of fogging up the clearest minds, leading to some rather crazy actions..

She yanked Holden back from throwing another punch and planted herself in front of Walter, her slight frame standing tall. "Enough! What's the point of hitting him?"

Walter did not return her feelings, and no matter how much she tried, she could not make him see her heart. That was just the hand she had been. dealt, and she was coming to terms with it. However, she had not noticed how much this hurt her uncles, who had doted on her since she was a little. girl. Never had they let her feel so slighted.
