Unmasking the Heiress (Evangeline and Walte)

Chapter 472

However, Minnie's anger had to wait.

A sudden memory hit her. Walter's party had started at 10 in the morning, and then it was way past bedtime. If she hurried, she could still make it in time to give Walter his birthday surprise.

Without her phone and without anyone to help, Minnie knew she had only one option, and that was to find Walter on her own.

With her mind made up, she did not waste another second. She slipped into her high heels and stepped out of the room.

The world outside her door was a whirlwind of life and noise, a total flip from the silence she had been trapped in. Ignoring the throbbing in her head, she moved through the crowd, her steps uneven but persistent. The dance floor was alive with energy, with couples spinning to the beat. Others lounged around, soaking in the scene. Minnie pushed forward, driven by a single goal-to find Walter before the night slipped away. Minnie spotted Walter's best friend Caden in an instant

Under normal circumstances, she would have thrown a friendly 'hey' his way. However, nothing mattered more than tracking down Walter to wish him well, so she brushed off everything else.

She bolted from the ballroom without a second thought, convinced Walter would not be caught dead in a place like that.

She ran through the ship, checking out every possible hideout, but Walter was nowhere to be seen.

With her heart sinking, Minnie stepped out of her room, needing to get some fresh air on the deck to clear her mind.

Out of the blue, a cozy glow from above snagged her attention. She hustled towards the light, only to find two silhouettes twirling in the dance of light.

In a heartbeat, Minnie knew who they were.

Walter and... Evangeline!

Minnie's fists clenched tight. If looks could kill, the air around her would have turned to dust.

Everything clicked.

It was Evangeline! She was the one who had slipped her the drug, then swooped in on Walter while she

was out cold!

Minnie spat out in disgust.

'Evangeline, oh Evangeline, you're the worst! Walter can't stand you, yet you're still trying so hard to charm him!' she fumed silently.

As for Walter, he must have been blackmailed by Evangeline, threatening her own safety. That had to be why Minnie was witnessing that mess!

The more Minnie stewed over it, the hotter her anger burned. She fantasized about storming into that

cozy, warmly lit room and giving Evangeline, who was twirling around with Walter, a piece of her mind!

However, she held back. Keeping her composure in front of Walter was one thing, but what really mattered was the decision she had just made in her head: Evangeline had to go.

How could she stand by while that snake of a woman, who did nothing but charm Walter and was then carrying his child, continued to breathe the same air as her?

Minnie was determined to show Evangeline that all her titles-whether it was the 'Motorcycle Queen,' the ' Violin Prodigy,' or the 'Foster Family's Darling'-meant zilch in her presence. If she wanted Evangeline gone, all it would take was one phone call.

With a gaze fierce as a flame, Minnie glided with poise towards the ballroom. She paused, not to enter, but to primp in front of the cruise ship's ubiquitous glass. A smudge on her eyeliner? No problem, she wiped it away. Chapter 473
