Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 685

Chapter 685

It was 10 PM.

Ludwik, with his tall and lanky frame, clumsily placed a bill on the bar counter and stumbled out, drunk, into the alley.

In his haze, it seemed he bumped into someone.

Emerging from the moonlit path, the figure shoved Ludwik back with force and let out a loud laugh, "Ludwik, long time no see! Finally got out of the slammer, huh?" "Fancy running into you here!"

Caught off guard and already plastered, Ludwik fell back into a ditch. Rubbing his forehead, he lifted his gloomy gaze and finally saw the face before him. Lane.

Behind him, a bunch of fair-weather friends.

"Look at this, guys, the once mighty Ludwik Lippert, the big shot of the Lippert family. Mr. Lippert was so arrogant back in the day, but look where the Lippert family is now, all fallen from grace, and he still held his head high.

I offered a generous 60 billion last time to take over the Lippert estate, to give them a break.

But what did Ludwik say? Told me to get lost!

Looks like karma finally caught up with him, got arrested for murder!

Oh, Ludwik, Ludwik, look at you now.

Tonight, you're not getting away."

After his tirade, Lane stepped onto Ludwik in the ditch, arrogantly throwing down a contract, "You didn't appreciate the 60 billion offer, Ludwik. Now, I don't want to spend a dime.

Sign over the Lippert estate, or I'll make you wish you were dead tonight!

Oh, too drunk to speak?

Maybe start barking like a dog, entertain us a bit, and maybe we'll go easy on you when we beat you up.

Ha-ha!"
