Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 591

Evangeline overheard Julia and Walter's phone call, every word sharp and clear.

However, she knew Walter too well.

One tear hung in her sight, and suddenly, she was back in that autumn she loved, by the water's edge.

She never noticed the solitude of autumn or its decline, believing it was beautiful to freeze in her prime if fading was inevitable.
