Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 698

Tiana was in utter despair, her mouth gagged as her world turned dark, forcefully stuffed into a burlap sack and knocked out cold.

The woman's harrowing scream stopped abruptly.

Bryce, hidden behind the door, broke out in a cold sweat. Despite being Whitney's best friend, Tiana had become too much of a liability, especially after uncovering his dark secrets.

He had no choice but to silence her today, or she would spill everything to Whitney.

That could ruin everything.

He still needed Whitney by his side; Tiana could not be allowed to interfere.

With a sinister smirk, Bryce emerged, "Hold on, grab her phone for me!"

The bodyguard quickly found Tiana's phone and handed it to Bryce.

Bryce, with a dark frown, didn't even glance at the sack as he coldly ordered, "She's been snooping around for Parker lately, right? Ha, might as well dump her in the sea near the old factory. But make sure she's silenced first, we can't afford any slip-ups." The bodyguard nodded, swiftly disappearing into the shadows of the club with the sack over his shoulder.

In the ensuing silence, Jarvis watched Bryce methodically send a text from Tiana's phone, his amusement evident as he clapped, "Mr. Lutz, your capability for crime is truly remarkable.

To kill with such cold, calculated precision, even fabricating evidence?

Planning to dump her at the factory, so if Whitney ever questions Tiana's disappearance, you can easily blame it on her search for Parker. Claim it was an unfortunate accident and move on. Brilliant.

Playing the wolf in sheep's clothing so convincingly in front of Whitney. Your methods are indeed ruthless."

Bryce's eyes flickered with annoyance. He was determined to outmaneuver Jarvis and Wade, keeping his machinations well hidden.

How else could he rise to become a renowned entrepreneur in Emperor City during its darkest times?

He intended to twist Whitney around his finger, and he had plans, big plans!

Anyone in his way, like Tiana, would simply be removed.
