Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 355

Whitney stood there, her gaze drifting across the dreamlike wedding publicity event where Elaine was being interviewed. The buzz about it was everywhere.

Her eyes seemed calm, almost detached, as she let out a small laugh, "Let's go, uncle."

"Some people just can't appreciate the finer things in life, like a billion-dollar wedding. Can you imagine that, miss? Our Elaine's husband, Mr. Lippert, he's loaded. And it's not just the money. He adores Elaine, ready to splurge on her, making their wedding the talk of the town. You won't find a second like him in all of Harmonia Country!"

A shrill voice pierced through the air.

Whitney turned around to see Endora and Elaine walking up side by side.

"Ms. Valentine, sorry if our lavish wedding disrupted your peace. I did tell Ludwik not to make it such a spectacle, but he wanted to give me the perfect wedding, no regrets. You've been close to him; you know how he's both a gentleman and assertively masculine!" Elaine's face showed a mix of being spoiled and helpless.

Endora sneered at Whitney, "Mr. Lippert's chivalry isn't for everyone; some women just didn't get to enjoy it, hence the divorce, right?"

"What did you just say!" Yael couldn't hold back.

Whitney stopped the furious young girl, "Well, he's my ex, like a fallen piece of trash. Elaine picked it up and treasures it. What can I say? Best wishes to you."

"You..." Endora was taken aback by Whitney's crudeness, priding herself on her ladylike demeanor; she couldn't stoop to a public spat.
