Chapter 605

Evangeline paused, cradling her growing belly, and slowly spun to take her phone out of her pocket. She dialed Walter's number. As soon as the call connected...

Evangeline ended the call, leaving Walter with nothing but the tone of a dead line.

Julieta was heartbroken to see her like that. With a gentle swipe of her hand, she dried the tears on Evangeline's face and whispered, "Ms. Evangeline, don't be heartbroken..." "Mrs. Lewis..."

In moments like these, the tender words were like a spell, coaxing out all the grief Evangeline had bottled up inside. She collapsed into Julieta's embrace, crying her heart out.

At that moment, Evangeline was not the cherished darling of the Foster family. She was just a girl who had lost her beloved grandfather.
