Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 762

"The last text on my sister's phone..."

Sawyer's voice was heavy with grief.

Whitney froze, completely taken aback. How could Audrey, with whom she barely had any connection, choose to send her a message in her final moments? It was utterly baffling.

What did she want to say about Bryce?

What about him?

Wait, why would Audrey mention Bryce right before she died?

Seeing Whitney's puzzled look, Sawyer's expression grew complicated. "My sister wanted to tell you something about Mr. Lutz. She had started to type 'Bryce' but... she never got to finish."

"I guess, at that moment, she must have realized or discovered something critical, prompting her to send you that message. It was a warning...

Otherwise, on the brink of death, she wouldn't have thought to message a stranger like you, Ms. Valentine. She would've called me or our parents to say goodbye...

But she didn't.

That means this message was something she believed was crucial for you to know."

Whitney felt her heart skip a beat.

Indeed, thinking back, Audrey's call wasn't for some trivial chit-chat. She had something important she wanted to share.

"Why is there only a screenshot?" Whitney asked, her curiosity piqued.

"The phone was handed over to the police. When we rushed to the scene from Banyan City, I was the first to check her phone. My family and Bryce saw it too. After finding the message, I took a screenshot and then deleted it." Whitney was taken aback that Bryce had also seen Audrey's phone.

Sawyer squinted, "Ms. Valentine, I deleted the message because I didn't want Bryce to see his name in my sister's last words. I don't know why she mentioned him in her dying moments.

She came to you yesterday, what did she want to say?"
