She had moved on from Walter, and even the idea of having his baby did not cling to her like it used to. She was all about letting the chips fall where they may However, Minnie's little jab?

We're not exactly friends, so doa favor and..." Evangeline mimed zipping her lips. "Zip it, okay?" Evangeline had been ready to kick Minnie out, but she figured someone as sharp as Minnie would definitely catch the hint.
