Unmasking the Heiress

"Can i get your name, sir? Are you aware that the lady next to you is rumored to be a homewrecker? What's your connection

to Evangeline? Got any comments as her alleged beau? And just how old is her current boyfriend, if you don't mind me asking? The reporter fired off questions, each more pointed than the clearly a fan who had been swayed by Julia's influence. "Listen, you need to

watch your words. I could sue you for slander on behalf of my client. And for your information, I'm James, this lady's attorney," said James courteously, though he was already plotting to teach this reporter a thing or two about 'experience' at a later time. The crowd buzzed at the mention of James' name.

"Holy smokes! James! The top lawyer from Halcyonia, the miracle worker, Mr. James Foster himself!"

"Doesn't he usually take on those massive international cases worth billions?"

Young as he was, he had knocked out a string of tough cases, making a big name for himself in the legal world. There he was, handling Evangeline's divorce case! Messing with him was like asking to be thrown behind bars in a heartbeat.

He was way out of their league!

As the reporter's back broke out in a cold sweat, James snatched the microphone and addressed the camera with a message for Walter.

"Mr. Walter Gordon, if you're thinking of refusing the divorce, we'll have no choice but to take this to court. Expect a letter from my lawyer tonight. Check your mail."

James' reply was sharp and clear. He then shot the reporter a look that said, "You know what to do with this story, right?"

The reporter nodded frantically. That was James, after all. A misstep there could mean the end of his career, or worse, his company's downfall.

"Um, Mr. James Foster, the Mr. Walter Gordon you're referring to... Is he that hotshot entrepreneur, the heir to the Gordon Group, Walter?" a gutsy reporter chimed in. "Yes, we're talking about the very same person," confirmed James without a hint of

evasion.

No way!

""Is Walter..."

Evangeline faced the camera with a calm grace, her words deliberate. "Walter is my husband. Do any of you know where he might be?"

The reporter was struck dumb, not just by her statement but by her stunning looks.

"No, I have no idea!"This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Then, dear reporters, do me a favor and pass a message to Walter. Stop hiding like a coward and come face me for a divorce. Whoever chickens out is a loser!" The crowd was in utter shock.

Had not the rumor been that Walter and Julia were an item, and that Evangeline was the one wrecking her own sister's relationship?

As it turned out, Walter was Evangeline's husband, and he was the one married. That made Julia the homewrecker!

Julia had been the one luring her sister's husband, prompting Evangeline to seek a divorce.

Did that make Walter a scumbag too?

What a disgrace!

Led by Julia, nearly everyone had been quick to label Evangeline as the shameless one, chasing after her sister's husband.

The tables had turned, and the truth was out

Regardless of any rumors about Evangeline's past, the fact that Julia had her eyes on her sister's husband and had tried to tarnish Evangeline's name was crystal clear. So many had seen Julia as a paragon of virtue, and that image crumbled.

"Time to leave, Mr. James Foster." Evangeline was stirring the pot, determined to flush Walter out of hiding.
