Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 1012

Florence lay hidden in the dark underbrush, her anxious heart finally settling down...

The main reason she had urgently fled the hospital was to ensure that Parisa wouldn't go there. If she could just keep her away from Ludwik, she had succeeded!

It was already dark. She couldn't believe Ludwik hadn't left the country by now.

These two hadn't crossed paths!

As long as Ludwik hadn't seen Parisa's face, he would never be able to expose her. Even if he suspected something about Inko Group, he wouldn't be able to find any leads.

He must have gone to the Inko Tower today to snoop around, but Florence knew all too well that Inko Tower was impregnable. She couldn't even get close to the front gate during her first days in Germinia, and Ludwik, despite his capabilities, had hit the same wall. He would definitely seek out Phineas to learn about the conglomerate's situation.

Florence had thought of this too, so she had frantically threatened Cara to steal a phone last night, contacting Bryce in a race against time. They had to eliminate Phineas, the only one who knew and recognized Parisa, at all costs!

She was on edge, but Bryce had pulled through!

Now, with Ludwik gone back to his country, he couldn't interfere with her plans anymore.

Next, she just had to play a tragic role in front of Parisa, pushing all the blame onto Ludwik. Parisa would surely grow to hate him even more. Then, she would have no choice but to help her and Bryce fight against Ludwik and those scoundrels from the Whitney family. As she was lost in her vengeful plans...

Screech-!
