Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 1000

Parisa cleared her throat and began in a polite tone, "Mr. Wilson, my reaching out to you this time isn't about work. It's about some personal matters that happened to me in Germinia. Once I'm done with my current commitments, I'd like to take some time to discuss them

with you. I need your help to verify a few people back home."

Everything she learned that morning came from Florence's revelations.

As for who Whitney and Ludwik really were and what they had done to Florence-whether they were truly beyond redemption-Parisa intended to investigate personally before making any decisions.

In doing so, she also gained a comprehensive understanding of Florence.

Parisa was far from being judgmental without reason.

After ending the call with Phineas, Parisa took a moment to gather her thoughts, which had been scattered throughout the day. That's when Erik reminded her, "Chairwoman, it's almost time for your flight to Francalia. We can't afford any more delays." "Right." Parisa gracefully picked up her trench coat and briefcase, pausing for a moment before casually asking, "How's Florence doing at Sanctum Mary Medical? Has she settled in alright?"

"I've arranged a private villa for Miss Florence, and she seems quite pleased with it. The head of the clinic is also arranging for the necessary maternity check-ups. Miss Florence was wondering if you could visit her today? She's eager to know when she can move into your place and be with you every day."

Florence wants to live at her place?

Parisa paused, not having considered bringing her daughter home so soon.

Perhaps she hadn't emotionally prepared for that step yet.

"Tell her I won't be able to visit today. I'll go straight to the hospital to see her once I'm back from my trip," she instructed.

Erik nodded and followed her to the car, heading to the Berlidon airport.
