Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 622

Evangeline's eyes briefly touched the medical report before she smoothed it out on the bed, angled for Walter to see.

She had just gone through the wringer, enduring a painful procedure to help the doctors with their tests. The results were in, and the thick 30-page report seemed to end too quickly for her liking. The doctor's final verdict, after comparing her new results with the previous ones, was a bombshell that rocked her world.

As she glared at Walter, the source of her misery, her heart seethed with hate.

If only she were not so drained, she would confront him, demanding to know what he would give for the lives of Cole and their baby.

Evangeline knew better than to let her anger take over. She closed her eyes, trapping the fury behind her dark lashes. When she opened them again, Walter had the report in his hands.

Roslyn hovered anxiously by Evangeline's hospital bed, her eyes locked on her friend with unwavering intensity.

Out of the blue, Evangeline's voice cut through the silence. "Roslyn, step out for a bit, will you? I need to have a word with Walter."

Her voice was eerily even, her emotions unreadable. She had reached a decision, a turning point, right after she had glanced at the lab report and let it fall from her hands.
