Evangeline could not help but laugh. "Why would I be avoiding you?" All she wanted was to give him the cold shoulder, plain and simple.
"So you..." Why are you taking off?' Walter's question hung in the air as his phone buzzed to life. He saw the caller ID and accepted the call without hesitation.

He thought about saying 'today', but he had just managed to catch Evangeline, and he had a whole lot to say to her. He could not possibly leave today. Trey was just itching to see Walter and Evangeline, so a day sooner or later did not really matter to him.
"Alright, but you have to bring Evie with you! I haven't seen her in ages, and I sure miss her." Walter glanced at Evangeline. "Sure, I'll bring her along tomorrow."

If you can't win back my favorite girl, you might as well forget about being part of the Gordon family!" "Grandpa, please, calm down..." Walter was not exactly known for his deference to elders, but being on the receiving end of Trey's lecture +25 BONUS Chapter 298 was a first for him.
He was flustered and wanted to clear the air with Trey, but he completely forgot Evangeline was still there. "I'll leave you two to it. I need sair." Trey's voice was booming, even though the phone was not on speaker mode, Evangeline could hear every word from where she stood.
She felt that if she stayed, it would only make Walter's scolding all the more awkward for him.
