Unmasking the Heiress

Walter was in the middle of a meeting, but he did not care that the top management was still around. He bellowed in disbelief, "What did you just say?! How on earth could Evangeline just disappear?" He wrapped up the meeting in a hurry and sent out his entire company's workforce, vowing to find Evangeline no matter the cost.

The news made him instantly think of Julia.

Julia had always been irked by Evangeline, treating her like a constant pain. With her parents gone and no family to speak of, Julia was like a wild card, unpredictable and unafraid.

However, what worried Walter more was whether Julia was acting out of pure spite or if the Bennison family was pulling the strings.

Everything he knew about Julia and the Bennison family was just guesswork. He had never found any solid proof of a scheme between Julia and the Bennison family.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Of course, all those concerns paled in comparison to finding Evangeline. The thought of the baby Evangeline was carrying sent a shiver of urgency through him. He had to find her, and fast!

In a quiet corner of the lively streets, a tall figure in a black trench coat gazed at the office building a short distance away, his lips twitching with concern. "Cuddly Cutie, you're always trying to be the hero. With something this huge going down, why didn't you call for backup?

"You might not want me barging into your life, but there's no way I could just watch you walk into a trap."

If Trey were there right then, he would totally recognize the man.

It was Thomas, Trey's buddy's grandson.

He was also Snow Wolf, the online pal Evangeline's never actually met face-to-face.

Back at Gordon Group's headquarters, Walter was scrambling like crazy, trying to figure out where Evangeline had vanished.

Then, out of the blue, his phone buzzed with a cryptic text.

[Evangeline is at the old warehouse, number 226, on the city's outskirts.]

Walter could not shake the message

his mind. He had no clue wh

sent it, but his gut told him that was not the work of a villain.

However, that place...

The old warehouse, number 226, on the city's outskirts. He had not set foot there in ages.

The last time was when he had his crew drop Julia off in Northern Montavia.

He had had his suspicions, but then the location was a dead giveaway. He knew who was behind that. Julia!

She had picked that spot to make Evangeline suffer, to make her go through the same hell she did.

This was payback. Payback aimed at Evangeline, and at herself too.

Payback meant Julia was off the rails. Who knew what kind of twisted thing she might do to Evangeline? Walter checked the time again. Three hours had passed since Evangeline disappeared.

Time was running out.

...

In front of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town, a sleek white luxury car rolled to a stop, and the bodyguard at the door walked up with a respectful bow, opening the car door.

Julia stepped out, her red heels clicking on the pavement. She adjusted her dark sunglasses and gave a quick glance to the bodyguard.

"Is the person inside?"

The bodyguard nodded. "Tied up, just like you wanted."

Julia flicked her chewing gum to the ground and made her way into the warehouse. Darkness enveloped the place, broken only by the weak glow of a few scattered lights.
