Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 808

"Got it, you're just irked because you haven't had a taste of her yet," Florence said with a knowing smirk.

She narrowed her eyes, plotting, "That's easy to fix. Since she's started digging into you, your time's running out.

Why don't you play dumb, catch her off-guard and spike her drink, knock her out cold? Then you can do whatever you want to her.

If she gets unruly, just film her and keep it as leverage. She'll have no choice but to comply with whatever you want afterward. If she steps out of line, threaten to go public with the footage. After all, she's Whitney, she wouldn't want her dirty laundry aired in public, would she?" It was as if Florence had voiced Bryce's darkest thoughts.

He looked at Florence with a cold intensity, "So, you're using me to get back at her? You're more vindictive than I thought."

"Me? Deep and devious? Hardly. I just think it's unfair to you. No matter how nice you are to her, she's still going behind your back with Ludwik. Maybe a little... persuasion would make her more compliant," Florence said with a sinister grin.

Bryce caressed her chin, pulling her closer and planting a kiss on her soft neck, pondering over something perhaps more sinister.

Florence shivered, "Mr. Lutz... why are you looking at me like that? What wicked plan are you concocting now?"

After all the sneaking around, she knew Bryce well enough.

This man, with his cunning mind, bowed and scraped in front of the Patrick family but was always scheming for his own gain. His ambition was limitless!

It seemed the Patrick family was on top for now, but if things continued, Bryce would never remain submissive. He was the dark horse with the most dangerous tricks up his sleeve.

Florence despised such men, yet here she was, relying on him to turn her fortunes around within the Sheldon Group.

"Florence, I see a fierce ambition in your eyes. Being dumped by Ludwik, outed by Whitney, and kicked out of the Sheldon Group must sting, huh? What if I told you there's a chance to start over, to return in a more prestigious role? Would you seize such an opportunity?" Bryce teased.

"Mr. Lutz, what are you talking about? A more prestigious role?" Florence asked, puzzled, yet sensing Bryce had a deep strategy in mind.
