Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)
Bitten Once Shy Forever 358

Chapter 358

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. Evie, sweet and naive, had been too easy a target for Walter's games. Trey would not stand for it. He was ready to defend her honor, come whatever would. Trey had everything ready and had been just waiting for Thomas' word to move out.

However, life loved a curveball, and who should show up at the Gordon family villa but the very person Trey had been hoping to see, yet could not simply turn away?

In the villa's grand living room, Trey sat with an air of dignity, but his face softened into a warm smile at the sight of his visitor. "Evie, to what do I owe the pleasure today?" Evangeline set down her water and grinned playfully. "What's the matter, Grandpa? Didn't expect to see

me?"

Evangeline could not shake the feeling that Trey was off. He seemed... on edge, which was odd. Ever since he left the company's management, he had been all about that tranquil life, mastering his temper since it's a health no-no.

Usually, Trey was cheerful, keeping any crankiness or outbursts to a rare minimum. However, Evangeline was still reeling from Cole's mega-lecture, and her senses were all out of whack, making everyone seem at bit off.

"No way," Trey chuckled, though he was fretting internally.

'Great timing, Evie,' he thought. Why now, just when I'm about to nab Walter?"

Thomas would whisk him away in mere moments. How on earth would he explain that to Evangeline? They were already tangled up in misunderstandings, and spilling the beans then would just make things worse.

-Trey vowed to keep his mission to catch Walter in the act totally under wraps. Evangeline and the Fosters could not replace out!

If Walter, that little troublemaker, kept messing around with shady characters, Trey would give him a Chapter 359

piece of his mind behind closed doors, until he swore to treat Evie right.

"It's been ages since you dropped by, and now it feels weird having you here all of a sudden..."

Trey's words mirrored Evangeline's own thoughts. She had been dreading that visit to the Gordons.
