Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 1060 Ludwik's face, usually so composed and alluring, suddenly went as white as a sheet. "What did you say?"

"She must have misunderstood. She thought the baby was yours and Florence's. She confronted Shane and then just left. We've been looking for her with Mr. Nelson all afternoon. At first, I was scared to tell you.

But now, Shane has reached out to the Lippert family, the Sheldon Group, and Brew Hill's Sheldon family. Danny and I checked Delight Mansion. Every place she might have gone, we've looked.

But she's gone, Dad. She's not coming home. She's vanished!

What do we do? She must be heartbroken, misunderstanding what happened with Danny and me. I'm afraid she might do something drastic."

"Sammy... Sammy!"

Ludwik's strong features were like a brewing storm, his hair in disarray. He called to the obviously distressed Sammy, "Shh, calm down. Listen to your dad!"

"Dad... it's my fault, isn't it? I shouldn't have driven her away. Maybe we shouldn't have kept the truth from

her about the baby from the start. Now it's such a big misunderstanding. I don't know if we can explain it to her. I don't know if she can forgive Danny and me..."

"I'll find her." Ludwik abruptly extended his long leg and kicked the front seat, "Stop the car!"

"Ludwik?" Parker's voice crackled through the phone, confused but aware that Whitney must have seen the 'baby'.

This was bad. Why did this have to happen now?

Parker frowned deeply, quickly pulling the car over to the side of the road.

Ludwik's brow was furrowed, a storm brewing in his eyes as he reassured his son, "This all started with me, so let me handle it. Don't panic. You and Danny go back to the Lippert family. Ensure your safety first.

I'll find your mom. Whatever explanation she needs, I'll give it. Maybe it's finally time to be honest with her."
