How could he be so clueless?
Evangeline's heart belonged to Alex, yet Walter poured out his feelings to her like she would actually care. Walter
was just humiliating himself at this point, was he not?
"Eight in the morning, I'll swing by the villa to get you. That's it for now, | need to sleep."
Walter's frosty words were a sharp reminder that she had interrupted his rest. Evangeline quickly agreed and
hung up, her heart heavy.
The phone lay silent, but Evangeline's heart was anything but. Walter's words haunted her in echoes, confirming
she had not misheard.
Her heart unexpectedly missed a beat, and a wave of disappointment and loss washed over her. Walter clearly
did not want her; his words were only for the sake of the baby.
With a reason for everything, Evangeline fought through her heartache and finally drifted off to a restless sleep.
After a night of tossing and turning, Evangeline dabbed on just enough makeup to look alive. She was careful to
use only pregnancy-safe products, nothing that could harm the little one growing inside her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJulieta, the ever-reliable nanny, had breakfast ready, perfectly laid out on the table.
Evangeline took a quick bite, dabbed at her mouth, and said, "Mrs. Lewis, I'm heading over to my grandpa's
today, and I'm not sure when I'll be back. Once I'm out, you can clean up and start your holiday. I'll get in touch
when I'm back, and don't worry, your pay will keep coming. I'll be needing your help with the baby later, so take
this chance to get srest, okay?"
Julieta's eyes shone with gratitude. "Thank you so much, Miss. I'm just a nanny, so you really don't have to be so
formal with me."
Evangeline gave a gentle shake of her head. "I've noticed all the hard work you put in, and that's why | treat you
with the srespect."
The Foster family lived by a simple rule: 'If you hire someone, you trust them."
Evangeline had chosen Julieta to look after her meals and daily routines, so she felt obliged to treat her with
kindness.
By the tWalter arrived to pick up Evangeline, Julieta had taken her leave.
Evangeline, with her purse in hand, climbed into the car without saying another word.
The ride was quiet, with neither of them speaking.
Walter, while keeping an eye on the road, stole glances at Evangeline and noticed that her makeup did a good
job of covering her pale face, which would keep Cole from worrying.
He was well aware of Evangeline's tender and thoughtful nature.
Sadly, he thought, that tenderness and thoughtfulness would never be meant for him.
Being in the early stages of pregnancy, Evangeline was prone to drowsiness and soon dozed off in the car.
