Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 488

However, Lydia's appearance was bound to be a game-changer.

It was not just the elusive Lydia. The people with her were all carrying packages, as if they were all in on a secret plan to make a getaway.

The Foster family caught wind of the odd behavior and wasted no time in alerting Evangeline.

The beauty salon was in the complete opposite direction from Emerald of the Highlands, but Evangeline knew what she had to do. Lydia was too important; she held the key to proving her mother's innocence and uncovering the shadowy figures who had taken her. Without hesitation, Evangeline ordered the driver to turn the car around and head for the salon.

Despite her exhaustion, Evangeline felt the weight of the situation was far greater. She could always catch up on sleep after that was all over.

It was that quick decision that kept her off the highway of doom, narrowly dodging a bullet.

Evangeline raced to Sunny Glow Beauty Salon, arriving just as the dust settled from the recent commotion. It was peaceful once again.

Her bodyguard, who had been waiting to meet her, hurried over with an update.

"Miss, we've just received word that our team has caught up with Lydia's car. Should we take her into custody right now?"

She was about to say 'absolutely' but stopped herself. How on earth had Lydia, an old lady, managed to stay under the radar in Avalon City for so long, especially with the Gordons and Fosters watching? It meant only one thing: Lydia had powerful backing, someone who could stand toe-to-toe with both
