Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 460

Florence couldn't take any criticism, so she thought she could just falsely accuse Sandy and get her kicked out of the company?

Whitney saw right through that scheme. Florence was clearly trying to kill two birds with one stone.

Sandy and Whitney were close friends, and Whitney would never stand by and watch her friend get bullied. That would be like taking a hit from Florence herself.

But if Whitney dared to defend Sandy, Ludwik might just fire her along with Sandy.

Whitney looked over at Florence, who was playing the victim, then turned her steely gaze to Ludwik, whose face was storming over.

She glanced back at the office space and pointed out, "Mr. Lippert believes Sandy deliberately pushed Nyx? I'm curious, though. If Nyx was in such a hurry for their coffee date with Mr. Lippert, carrying two steaming cups, why didn't she take the shortest route? Why go all the way around to Sandy's desk?"

Florence played the pity card, "Sis, I just saw Sandy and thought I'd say hi, maybe I startled her, and she pushed me by accident."

"So, let me get this straight, you scared her on purpose, made her turn around, and then you spilled your coffee on purpose to blame it on her?" Whitney scoffed.

Florence's eyes narrowed, and she quickly started to sob, looking at Ludwik, "Why would sis say that about me? I got burned too. Ludwik, let's just forget it. I'll apologize to Sandy... Sis always said I don't understand the corporate world. I don't want her to think I'm a bother anymore. After all, this might be my only career chance..."
