"What's there to worry about?"
Evangeline brushed it off without a second thought.
She and Alex were close, so there was no need to sweat the small stuff.
Watching Julieta fussing over everything, Evangeline could not help but reassure her, "Mrs. Lewis, we're close,
you know. Just treat him like you'd treat me. Forget all that fancy etiquette."
"Ms. Evangeline, hearing you say that puts my mind at ease."
Julieta handed her a glass of lemon water from the coffee table. "Tfor your lemon water! You have to keep up
with that vitamin C for the little one. No more being stubborn once you're a mom, okay?"
Evangeline's lips quirked at the sight of the lemon slices bobbing in the glass. This pregnancy felt more like a
trial than a joy.
She took the glass, took a deep breath, and downed a hearty swig, only to hear Julieta's constant chatter by her
side.
"Mr. Alex Gordon was such a loss, all suave and kind-hearted. If only his legs were as strong as his character,
he'd outshine Mr. Walter Gordon by miles. Ms. Evangeline, you toldMr. Alex and Mr. Walter are like two peas
in a pod, looks-wise. So why, oh why, did you fall head over heels for Walter in the first place?

Julieta's words hit Evangeline like a ton of bricks. Suddenly, the lemon she was munching on did not taste
SO sour anymore.
After all, she was the real sourpuss.
She had asked herself over and over, what in the world was she thinking? Out of two identical faces, she had to
fall for Walter, the charming rogue.
Was that skind of twisted fate?
Liking someone was just that-liking them. No matter how much Evangeline wrestled with her feelings, she could
not rewrite the ending. Especially with how things had gone that far, backing out was no longer an option.
Her pale, soft hand caressed her swollen belly, her eyes fluttering shut. However, she could vividly picture Walter
gazing at her with nothing but adoration.
His hand, warm and reassuring, had once rested on her belly, the heat of his touch seeping through her thin
shirt. She remembered it so clearly that it still sent shivers down her spine.
It was a simple touch, and she was head over heels all over again...
With a deep sigh, Evangeline cto terms with her reality.
She was in it for the long haul.
At the Avalon University Music Department dorms, life went on.
