Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)
Bitten Once Shy Forever 293

Chapter 293

Walter looked nothing like his usual refined self, instead resembling a hulking brute with more brawn than

brains.

Alex was momentarily speechless, baffled by the confrontation.

Evangeline, however, did not miss a beat. She casually crossed her legs with poise and called out," Walter, I'm right here."

She even gave him a playful wave of her finger as she spoke.

"What's the big idea, showing up here in the middle of the night, yelling and pounding on the door? What's your deal?"

Walter's face turned stormy in an instant, and he glared at Evangeline with a menacing scowl. "You're asking what I'm doing? You really have no clue?"

His gaze narrowed dangerously, a threatening glint flashing in his eyes.

He had never seen Evangeline's outfit before. So, not only had she not come home tonight, but she had also changed her clothes for her visit to Alex's place? Walter's anger blazed like wildfire, and he turned his furious glare onto Alex.

"What did you do to Evangeline?"

Alex's heart skipped a beat as he sensed trouble brewing. The look on Walter's face when he had eyed Evangeline's outfit earlier flashed in his mind, and he rushed to clear the air. "Walter, you've got it all wrong. You're misunderstanding me and Evie..."

"Evie?" Walter's voice dripped with sarcasm. "Still calling her Evie, huh? Alex, Evangeline and I aren't divorced yet. Until we sign those papers, she's your sister-in-law. Is it really cool for you, my brother, to be so close with her?" Alex's face turned beet red, his well-rehearsed explanations stuck in his throat.

Evangéline was not about to back down.

"What's the big deal? You say Alex is your brother, but you still talk to him like he's a stranger, Walter, I think Alex should be the one asking if what you're doing is cool or not!"

"How dare you!" Walter's anger erupted. He did not even care that Alex was there. In a swift move, he was at Evangeline's side, grabbing her wrist and dragging her out the door.

Alex, confined to his wheelchair, could not intervene. Evangeline, no match for Walter's strength and fury, was helpless.

Walter hauled Evangeline down the stairs and into the back of his car.

Evangeline thought that would be the end of it. To her surprise, Walter climbed in too, settling himself right next to her. The streetlights cast shadows on his face, and all she could hear were his heavy, angry breaths.

"Out with it! What were you and Alex up to?"

The question hit Evangeline out of nowhere, like she had been caught red-handed.

Evangeline had nothing to hide, and she was not about to let Walter intimidate her. She shot back, "One's Alex, the other's your wife. What do you think we could possibly be up to?"

"You stayed out all night and even changed your clothes, and you're still talking tough?"

Walter was beside himself with disbelief.

The thought that Evangeline might have been up to something intimate with Alex sent him into a blind rage, burning away the last shreds of his sanity.

In a fit of anger, he grabbed at her woolen jacket so fiercely that the buttons popped off, exposing her pale skin.

Evangeline's hands flew to cover herself, but Walter's erratic accusations kept cominy.

"Did he rip your clothes off like this? Did he kiss your shoulders? Did he touch your body?"
