Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 902

Alice speculated with a smirk, "He must have been cornered, Parker looked like a storm cloud when he came out! I'm pretty sure our days of living large are just around the corner, Endora. We played a risky game, but it paid off handsomely. Now, Parker's in a bind. If he doesn't clean up this mess, the other elite families will use it to take down the Doonan family."

Laughing, Alice peeked outside, noting Parker's departure without a glance towards his daughter.

"And his mom just walked out too, not even bothering to check on her daughter-in-law? That's just low. Even if Parker's mad, his mom could've at least pretended to care. Shows you she lacks the grace of a true lady, just following her son like that. Listen, honey, when you marry into that family, don't you give Natalie the time of day.

I've heard Carmen holds herself too high and mighty in the Doonan household, barely letting Winston through the door. That woman doesn't know the first thing about charming a man. Don't you follow in her footsteps. You need to keep Parker sweet." Endora shared her dismay towards Parker's mom, scoffing, "No matter how I try, she's always so cold. Doesn't matter. Once Parker's dealt with, she won't be a problem."

She dreamt of her soon-to-be blissful life married to Parker, chuckling coldly, which tugged at her wrist wound. She raised an eyebrow, "Mom, did you make sure the doctor's on our side? Just go public saying my wrist's permanently damaged from a suicide attempt." "Relax, I've poured over three million into this. Both the doctors and the media will spread the word. With you 'disabled,' the Doonan family will have no choice but to accept the marriage," Alice sneered.

Endora felt her plan was foolproof, yet... there was another matter to address.

She glanced at her parents, "Could you step out for a bit? I need to make a call."

Cato and Alice understood immediately, leaving the room.

Endora dialed Barclay Doonan, a venomous glint in her eye, "Things are going smoothly on my end. The old man's ordered Parker to marry me, but I doubt he'll let it go without a fight. It's time for you to make your move."

Barclay chuckled, "Already on it. I had my mom take care of something. Expect Tiana's dad to face trouble these coming days!"

"Barclay, you're the best at these underhanded games," Endora said with a sly tone, her eyes narrowing.

Tiana would be the last straw for Parker. With her in immediate trouble, Parker would have no choice but to give up.

This time, Endora wouldn't let her marriage plans fall through.

Barclay hesitated, "Endora, could you check something
