Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 511

"Ludwik, storming in there now is like throwing gasoline on a bonfire!"

Ludwik's eyes blazed with fury. "She's my girl. What right does Bryce have to be all over her?"

Parker was all too familiar with his jealousy and dark, possessive streak. "Do you really think Whitney will be happy to see you right now? Are you sure you want to push her over the edge? Ludwik, think about it... What's the rush? She's falling apart, with no one there for her. Look, I'll get in touch with Tiana or maybe Sandy. For now, come with me!"

Parker forcibly dragged him away. Ludwik radiated an icy chill. Felix quickly bought two bottles of water, handing them to the two men in the hallway.

She didn't answer, her expression frosty. "Has the Lutz Group finished relocating? What's your plan? Land in Emperor City is ridiculously expensive."

Whitney looked up. "Where?"
