Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 564

Ludwik wanted children, but Whitney wasn't interested.

He longed for this woman, yet Whitney refused to open her heart again.

Their relationship was a series of mistakes, with Ludwik loving intensely, suppressing a myriad of pains that no one else could understand.

But Whitney couldn't see the deep-seated tenderness in his eyes; her patience had run out.

At this moment, Ludwik seemed pitiful to Parker, as he had been deeply hurt by Whitney.

Clutching a piece of paper tightly, Ludwik slumped over the bar, mumbling to himself.

Parker, head bowed, downed a few shots in silence before standing up to call Tiana, his voice hoarse, "Ms. Melford, is Whitney really marrying Bryce?! Is this true, or just a rumor? Is Whitney using Bryce to provoke Ludwik?

Do you know what's really going on?"

"It's not about provoking anyone. Whitney genuinely wants to move on from the nightmare that is Ludwik and leave the past behind. Ludwik's lost it. He should see a shrink!

He gets Florence pregnant and still wants Whitney to carry his child? What's he thinking?

He thinks he can have it all? No way.

After everything, he still has the nerve to corner Whitney into marrying him?

I'd rather have Whitney marry Bryce than deal with his mess." Tiana vented, infuriated.

Parker's face darkened as he tried to stay calm, "Could you not add fuel to the fire, please?

Whitney was actually pregnant a month ago..."

"Enough, you've been brainwashed by Ludwik, making up pregnancies now.
