Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 191

Yeah, Walter definitely did it on purpose. He was dying to find out if Evangeline would turn green with envy seeing him flirt with another girl right in front of her. Nonetheless, Evangeline shot Walter a blank look before her eyes landed on Minnie. "Looks like there's no way out of playing the violin today," she said. "Ms. Kast, just playing together is kinda boring, don't you think? How about we spice things up with a little wager? It'll make our face-off more exciting." Minnie had been hoping for this moment.

Back when she went by Julia, she had never heard a peep about Evangeline playing the violin. This showdown was in the bag-Evangeline did not stand a chance.

Of course, Minnie played it cool. "Oh, wouldn't that be awkward? If I win against the birthday girl, it'll be such a slap in your face, won't it?" Minnie asked innocently. Evangeline let out a cold huff. If Minnie really saw herself as the birthday girl, she would not pull a stunt like this.

Arguing about it at this point would just be petty.

"There's no shame in it. It's my party, my rules. We're all here to have a good time, and nobody's going to take it personally."

Evangeline did not give Minnie any room to chicken out. She signaled the performers to stop, strutted onto the stage gracefully, grabbed the mic, and kept her intro short and sweet. "Hey, everyone, I'm Evangeline."

Her voice rocked the room, and cheers filled the air..
