Unmasking the Heiress

526



"Is that so?" Julia sneered, her eyes gleaming with a sharp light. "Well, if that's how it is, then we've got nothing more to say. You'll never get any information out of me unless you make me Mrs. Gordon.... The conversation had hit a dead end.

Julia gritted her teeth in frustration.

It was all Evangeline's fault, that sly fox! If she had not constantly been flirting with Walter, how could her darling Walt have a change of heart? Julia was determined to make her suffer!

Last time, Evangeline got lucky. The plan her mom set up to have Evangeline hit on the highway failed, and now even her mom was caught up in it.

This time, she was determined to make sure Evangeline would not escape!

Rage burned in Julia's eyes, but as she looked up, she locked eyes with Walter's intense stare.

He stood with arms crossed, his dark eyes boring into her.

She knew that look all too well. In the past, every time Julia showed up in his line of sight, she would receive that look

Eventually, it was a gaze special only toward her.

However, ever since Evangeline announced she wanted a divorce from Walter on that cruise night, everything changed....

"Julia, do you really want to be Mrs. Gordon?"

Walter chuckled lightly.

Internally, he was mocking the woman in front of him for being so full of herself. Did she think Walter was some kind of dump? Where any stray could just walk in?

"You're so sure of yourself. Aren't you worried I might reveal your little secrets and embarrass you?" With Julia, he had no intention of giving any heartfelt advice. He just wanted to give her a gentle nudge. If she had just come clean early on, maybe by the end, he would be lenient, so she would not end up like

her parents...

Julia scoffed. "What secrets could I possibly have for you to catch?"

In her mind, not even the court could touch her, so what could Walter do?

If it was not for the fact she still cared about Walter, hoping he would come back to her, to live a blissfully shameless life together, she would not even bother to see his face!

*Remember the pile-up on Dannington Road?" Walter asked, speaking slowly. His lips curved, but it was a smile without any warmth.

His dark eyes were deep and full of menace. Yeah, just thinking about that crash, which almost took Evangeline and their child away from him, made him wish the woman in front of him would just disappear. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Of course I remember. It was a terrible accident-a lot of people died," said Julia confidently. She knew she had nothing to do with it, so even if Walter asked her about it, she felt no guilt.

Walter was not in a rush, though. "As long as it wasn't your doing, that's good. Otherwise..." He glanced at the courthouse's stern emblem." You fought hard to get out, but if you go back in, there's no guarantee you'll come out again..."

The message was clear, and Julia, being smart, understood. Even though she did not set up the accident, her people were involved. If the truth'came out, it would be bad for her and those above her.

Regardless, she was sure her men covered their tracks perfectly, so Walter's threats did not scare her.
