Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 260

As Walter's kisses became more intense, Evangeline's will to fight back kicked in. Panicked, she reached out and gave Walter a fierce pinch under his arm.

They sprang apart as if shocked by a bolt of electricity. Walter's dark eyes locked onto her, his breaths coming in heavy gasps. It was only then that Evangeline noticed her shirt buttons had been undone without her realizing it, her chest boldly on display for Walter. "Walter, are you an animal? Is there nothing else in your head but this?" Evangeline was livid. Despite being sick and drunk, he just would not keep it together. What made her blood boil was how she herself had been so rattled by his kiss that she nearly lost all sense of reason!

That little scuffle seemed to snap Walter out of it. He thought about their earlier fight, about Alex, the elephant in the room, and found himself at a loss for words.

Walter was not one to trouble himself, so he silently stepped out of the tub. He dried off, slipped into a robe, and collapsed onto the bed, his movements fluid as if the fiery encounter had never happened, as if Evangeline was never even there.

Once Evangeline composed herself and stepped out of the bathroom, Walter was already fast asleep. Wounded, drunk, and exhausted from the night's drama, he was completely spent...

Evangeline ran her fingers through Walter's damp hair and, with a sigh of resignation, pulled out a quiet hairdryer, plugged it in, and started drying his hair.

Her gentle hands worked through his hair, her fingers like a comb, softly stroking until his hair was completely dry. Only then did she stop.
