Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 453

Chapter 453

Heidi's eyes flickered with envy, "Grandma, the moment Ludwik's son shows up, you forget all about Molly?

The boy is a bully, picking on my daughter..."

Ludwik marched over to the little girl, "A troublemaker? Did your mom teach you to say that?"

"Ludwik! My daughter was just playing by the pond when your son hit her several times. She cursed back, so what?" Heidi retorted. She was still sore from last night when she got into a spat with Joanne and Ludwik used it as an excuse to demote her. Ludwik ignored her, turning to Grandma.

"Enough!" Camilla glared at Heidi and apologized to Ludwik, "Molly was a bit hostile towards Danny, no big deal. Justin, the troublemaker, egged Molly on to push Danny into the pond. Danny retaliated, and both got hurt."

Ludwik's gaze narrowed. He knew why Justin was targeting his son, and it was nothing but cowardly.

"Danny can't swim, so he hit your daughter. He wouldn't have if he wasn't provoked," Ludwik said indifferently to Heidi.

Heidi could hear the insinuation that her daughter deserved it and was furious.

"Ludwik, who's this kid's mother, huh? She sure didn't teach him manners!" Heidi tried to stir trouble.

Ludwik's cold gaze silenced her. With a huff, she reluctantly left with her daughter.

The elderly lady glanced at Danny, who had remained silent, and smiled, "Danny's temper is just like yours. He's even more handsome, which says a lot about his mother." She didn't directly ask who Danny's mom was.

But Danny liked what he heard, a small smile appearing on his face, "Great Grandma, my mom is..."

"Don't cling to your Great Grandma, we're leaving." Ludwik cut him off.

Danny gave his dad a cold look, still upset, and pouted.

The elderly lady reluctantly stood, "His backpack is in the back room, Ludwik, come with me."

Ludwik followed her inside.

Led by a servant, Danny was leaving the yard when Florence arrived.
