Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 853

Whitney smirked lazily, gesturing to her phone with a shake of her head, "The project team at the site hasn't reached out to me, guess that means they're handling things smoothly, huh?" "Exactly, it's what happens when you back a dog into a corner and it still tries to make a final gamble-it ends up hammering the last nail into its own coffin!

Looks like the folks in the project team aren't fools, after all. With the way the wind's blowing, who'd dare refund him now?

When the walls come tumbling down, everyone's ready to push, and that's soon to be Bryce's reality."

Tiana twirled her pen, her smile brilliant.

At the construction site of Sky-Surprise Inn, in the project department.

Bryce was gradually being crushed by Whitney's afternoon online maneuvers, edging towards a state of near insanity.

At this point, the project manager was nowhere to be found.

Considering Zayne was Bryce's trusted plant in the company just half a month ago, this was a betrayal!

Now, it was obvious Zayne was also holed up in his office, having seen the videos Whitney leaked online, along with Hudson stepping in to accuse him of contract fraud. It was likely Zayne had turned his back on him.

Bryce couldn't stand it. He was desperately waiting for that three hundred billion injection to plug the gaping holes in Fortu-Nova Bank and prevent his own Lutz Group from being sealed off by the authorities, facing a sky-full of breach of contract issues, one step at a time. That traitor dared to betray him... Out of furious desperation, he had his secretary call up a squad of bodyguards to smash their way through the project department door, intending to force Zayne to cough up the money! Inside the office, Zayne and his team were terrified.

Had Bryce gone mad, trying to storm in and rob them?

Zayne had been closely following Whitney's counterattack, and by now, it was clear to everyone that Bryce was finished.

That three hundred billion was absolutely not to be returned to Bryce from the project funds; that would be akin to directly antagonizing Whitney and Hudson!

Just when the department staff were nearly overwhelmed by Bryce's onslaught, Zayne received a call.

It was from Ludwik.

chilling voice gave him a start, "Bryce's money is still sitting in the construction site's account, and you're about to lose control, aren't you? Your delay in reporting to Whitney, is it because you still see yourself as Bryce's
