Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

As she reached the front gate, she saw David standing tall and defiant in the midst of the blizzard, his car parked idly by, with no sign of him leaving anytime soon. Was David willing to wait out in the cold indefinitely, all for a chance to see Celina? If so, his feelings for Celina must be profound.

Evangeline's heart skipped a beat as she noticed David's face, which was a worrying shade of blue from the biting cold. If he stayed out much longer, it could spell disaster. Cole, leaning on his walking stick, noticed David too and made his way over, accidentally running into Evangeline. "Evie, isn't that Walter's guy, David? Should we let him in? "With the snow coming down this hard, it'd be terrible if something happened to him."

Both Cole and Evangeline were on the same page, yet Evangeline was torn about what to do.

David had come for Celina, after all. If she invited him in without warning, would Celina agree to meet him?

Just then, David's voice cut through the storm, "Celina, please, just meet with me once! I'm begging you!"

He was shouting at the top of his lungs, but all for naught. The Foster family's mansion was fortified with soundproof glass, and Celina, resting inside, could not hear a thing. However, Evangeline and Cole, who had come to the door out of concern, heard him loud and clear.

Was all that shouting in vain? It seemed like a futile effort.

However, there was something about David's plea that touched Evangeline, and she quietly resolved to give David one final helping hand.
