2/2 Chapter 284 Chapter 284 +25 BONUS Evangeline could not shake the image of Minnie when the man mentioned the dark dress. This enigmatic girl who had cback with Alex to Avalon City, always draped in skirts, suddenly sprang to mind.
It was the bodyguard's remark that sparked the connection.
Minnie had always seemed familiar to Evangeline, like a face from a half-remembered dream. Whenever she tried to place her, her memory would fog up.
Piecing together Julia's silhouette with Minnie's, and considering the girl's impressive talent with the violin, Evangeline was almost convinced-Minnie had to be the long-lost Julia.

She had to find out if Minnie, fresh from abroad, was really the long-lost Julia.
Thanks to Walter and Evangeline, two of the biggest names on the Internet, Avalon University was a hotspot, practically a celebrity selfie shrine. Sfans even camped out at the front gates, hoping for a glimpse of the stars. Evangeline glanced at the crowd of strangers at the gate, itching to get inside.
Lucky for her, the security guard recognized her instantly. He hit the electronic lock and waved her through, and she zoomed into the campus.
In the brief moment it took to hit the brakes, snippets of conversation wafted through her open car window.
"Did you hear? The Gordon family, Mr. Walter Gordon, he showed up at the music department today!" "No way, Mr. Walter Gordon's a finance guy. What's he doing at the music department?" The skeptic got a confident reply, "It's true, someone saw him go in. And why the music department? Maybe he's here to scoop up Evangeline, the Foster family's darling, and take her home?" The rumor mill churned as the listeners snickered.
"You're way too optimistic," someone snickered behind her. "Ms. Evangeline didn't even show up today. Between you and me, I bet the rumors about that couple's divorce aren't just rumors!" Evangeline could not care less about the gossip, but wait...
Was Walter here too? Chapter 284 +25 BONUS Why on earth would he be here? Did he notice how much Minnie and Julia look alike and was hoping to rekindle an old romance? A wave of irritation flooded through her, and Evangeline hit the brakes hard, bringing her car to an abrupt halt.

Of course, it was difficult to miss her, thanks to the blazing red dress Minnie had on today, Evangelinen could not ignore it even if she tried. She had to remind herself, Walter did not matter. She was here on a mission-to uncover if Minnie really was her sister Julia. As she stepped into the classroom and cface-to-face with Minnie, Evangeline felt a strange calm.
School was out, and the room was deserted, just Evangeline and Minnie.

"Quite the coincidence, Ms.
Evangeline," said Minnie breaking the silence with a greeting and a wave, pausing her meticulous cleaning.
