Chapter 619
Celina stood up in surprise and blurted, "Mr. Walter Gordon, Mr. Yale Foster is inside. Should I let him know you're
here?"
She barely knew Walter, and any tthey crossed paths, it was through David, the go-between. She was not
naive enough to think Walter had cout there just for her. Out of the blue...
"Ms. Morris, can we talk for a minute?" Walter gestured for Celina to join him.
He was supposed to have left with Trey after saying goodbye, but something inside him was restless. He ended
up driving back to the funeral site.
He had expected Cole's funeral to be a long affair, but when Walter got back, the place was deserted. Weird, he
thought.
Just as he was about to ask someone what happened, he spotted Celina squatting by the lounge entrance,

It was like stumbling upon the very thing he had been searching for without even trying.
He had been wanting to talk to Celina for ages but never got the chance. At last, she was right there, and he was
not about to walk away.
Celina was well aware of the tension between Walter and David, and the different sides they were on. She had
always turned down requests to relay messages from Evangeline. Faced with Walter himself, she was just as
dismissive.
"Mr. Walter Gordon, | really don't think there's anything for us to talk about." Celina's gaze was intense, her face
an icy mask.
She did not look at Walter with any of the deference he might have expected from someone of a lower status.
"You might not have anything to say to Mr. Walter Gordon, but you might have something to say to David's
brother, Walter," he said, not giving her a chance to reject him.

Celina raised an eyebrow. "Was it his idea for you to talk to me?"
She had pegged Walter as the type who, like her standoffish boss, would not give a hoot about his underlings,
only bothering to talk shop when they met face to face.

However, there he was, proving her wrong. Celina found herself unexpectedly intrigued by Walter.
"Nope." Walter shook his head. "David chose to extend his business trip on his own. He's clueless about me

Celina mused, "Mr. Walter Gordon, I've listened to your spiel, and | got the message loud and clear. So, we're
done here."
She was ready to walk away, but she then thought of Evangeline, who was in the hospital.
The baby inside Evangeline was Walter's, after all. Even a beast would not harm its own offspring.
Walter might be over Evangeline, but he had to care about his kid, right?
"Oh, and Mr. Walter Gordon," Celina added, "consider this a tip for the news you've brought me: you'd better go
see the Foster family's Mr. Yale Foster now, or else... you're going to kick yourself later
With a mysterious look, Celina dropped that enigmatic bomb and spun on her heel to leave.
She could not do much more here, and with Evangeline's condition up in the air at the hospital, she needed to
make tracks.
Walter, baffled but wary of regret, decided he would better take her advice and pay a visit.
