Unmasking the Heiress

Chapter 20

Just then, the wail of police sirens pierced the air outside.

Evangeline laughed, standing amid the glow of neon lights that cut through the night.

A fleeting look of loneliness crossed her face only when Walter had taken Julia away, leaving her fate to the cops. When she made her way to the station, however, she showed no fear.

She looked tranquil, her eyes calm and kind as she faced Ruby, the woman across from her.

"Pretty brave of you, calling the cops on me."

"Ha! I'm not the only one

who wants you locked up; Mr. Walter Gordon does too. You think you can hurt Julia and get away with it? A nobody from the sticks trying to outshine Julia? You lay a finger on her, and Mr. Walter Gordon will make sure you won't know what hit you." "Alright, then. Remember what you said. Just don't end up regretting them."

That was when the police showed up.

"Nobody's leaving. Everyone here, you're all coming back to the station with me."

Evangeline did not resist. She simply smiled at the officers and said, "Sure, I'll come along."

"Hey! Evie, you don't have to do this," Roslyn protested, shaking her head.

If they knew who Evangeline was, no one would dare lay a finger on her.

To think they could drag the Foster family's darling princess to the station-

they must have a death wish! However, Evangeline just shook her head and playfully raised an eyebrow. "I've got to go today! I'll shoulder the blame for this one. You guys keep the party going with the boys. I'll be back before you know it!" Roslyn's heart ached for Evangeline's relentless spirit.

Walter had demanded she report to the police station, and Evangeline had no real choice but to comply. At that moment, Roslyn found herself worrying about the potential harm Ruby could cause en route to the police station, as well as in the police station itself. Ruby rolled her eyes. "Hilarious. She thinks she'll just pop in and out, but maybe she'll disappear for good, huh?"

This was her domain. She was determined to have Evangeline crying and begging for forgiveness. Before long. Evangeline and Ruby were escorted into the precinct.

Ruby, all relaxed, sipped her coffee and strolled over to the isolation cell to see Evangeline. With a sneer, she taunted, "Look at you, all scared. This is where trash like you belongs. Fits you like a glove."

Ruby, barely over her scrapes and still with an untreated nose, donned a mask just to revel in Evangeline's misery. Roslyn was out of her league, but Evangeline, a simple country girl, was putty in her hands. Evangeline ignored her, which only made Ruby seethe. "You think you're tough? You have no idea. My
