Chapter 380
What Walter did not realize was that Minnie, though clueless about his little test, had done her research to keep
her true identity a secret.
"I'm not that incredible."
Her cheeks flushed with a shy pink as she confessed. Theard about the fight with your mom, and | was super
worried. | had to ask a bunch of the house staff before | finally found your room." She was determined to protect
her identity as Minnie if she was going to share a life with Walter
However, that was just for the tbeing. Once she had his heart securely in her hands, there would be no need
for all that sneaking around.
"Hmm, pretty clever." Walter gave a noncommittal hum, a half-hearted praise, before he ventured a question,
"Which room did my mom set you up in? Is it far from here? You must be tired from searching for me.
He feigned concern, and it worked like a charm. He saw the flicker of emotion in Minnie's eyes
"It's not bad, not too far."
She could not really admit it was fair in a situation like that, could she? That would just show she did not get it.
That was what Minnie was thinking when she noticed Walter's dry lips. "You look thirsty. Letgrab you a glass

If Evangeline were the one bringing him water, he would be over the moon. Alas, it seemed like he did not
matter to her at all...
After taking a sip of the water Minnie gave him, Walter suddenly asked,
"Ms. Kast, if you messed up and nobody else cared, would you bother explaining?"
"A mistake nobody cares about?" Minnie echoed, her brow furrowed in confusion. She repeated Walter's question
to herself, finally grasping his meaning. She sank into deep thought
She rubbed her chin, pondering for a moment before responding with earnest conviction, "If no one else gives a
hoot, then whether it's right or wrong, I say let it go like a leaf in the wind." Walter's eyes sparkled with
uncertainty.
*So, you're saying just forget it ever happened? Don't | even need to clear the air? | mean, | should at least clear
my own conscience."
"Why explain when it falls on deaf ears? Your innocence, Walter, it vanished the second they stopped trusting
you.
Minnie did not know the specifics of Walter's dilemma, but her advice was true to her own style.
Above all, she would not let anyone, man or woman, take up space in Walter's heart. If she could get Walter to
shrug off the issue, they would both be better off for it. Chapter 350
