Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 159

Chapter 159 

I overheard you talking the other day, and I couldn’t believe itLudwik really spoils you, doesn’t he? You’ve got access to all his liquid assets, and you can spend without limits, as long as it’s for something that looks legit. If you were to transfer funds to my account, Ludwik could trace it and take it back. But if you funnel it into one of the companies he’s already set to invest in, then it’s all above board.” 

Whitney’s eyes widened in sheer panic, and her face drained of all color

When had her uncle started scheming this

Was it from the moment they first met and he heard about her having a black card? So that was why he insisted on a partnership with Ludwik using an offshore company 

Looking back and realizing the gist of it, she felt chilled to the bone

With her signed contract in hand, and then redirecting Ludwik’s assets into an offshore company… 

No, Uncle. You can’t do this!” 

But there was Keegan, sliding the card through the reader, with the bank manager overseeing the transaction

No!Whitney’s eyes turned bloodshot as she stared at the frozen image of Ludwik’s handsome face on the TV screen, her scream tearing through the room. You can’t swipe his funds now! He needs that money to get through this tough time. Uncle, this is robbery!” 

Yet, the bank manager processed the transaction

Keegan grabbed her hand to scan her fingerprint

Whitney clenched her fingers tight, her body thrashing in the chair. Her heart felt as if it were being cleaved in two. She could not give her fingerprint; she could not sign her name, and she could not be the cause of Ludwik’s downfall. They had a future. They could still make it… 

But her uncle forced her finger onto the fingerprint scanner

The transaction was complete

Dozens of receipts were printed out, each requiring her signature

Uncle, stop! This is theft! I’m begging you, I love him, I don’t want to harm him, please, no!” 

But Keegan held her trembling hand, forcing her to scribble her name on each slip

She resisted with all her might, but she was pinned down, signing her name through tears

Each signature felt like a blade, knowing it would soon cut into Ludwik 

Why was this happening

This morning, she thought they had clarity and could be in love

She was overjoyed, filled with ironclad hope

And now, her uncle was crushing that hope in his hands

That black card, given to her as a sign of his sincerity, a token of his affection

How could this be used to break his heart

Whitney’s tears flowed freely as she shook her head in despair. Uncle, you might as well kill me 

ne now.” 

Wake up and see you’ll never be with him! This is what you should do! This is all our family’s money!Keegan could no longer hear reason and forced her to sign her name

The young man approached, calculating the amount, and laughed. Over 400 billion dollars and that’s just liquid assets. My brother’s really loaded.” 

Whitney froze, her face ashen, veins standing out starkly

She seemed not to comprehend. What was this man talking about

Brother

At United Realty Corporation, Ludwik wrapped up a meeting that had successfully silenced the investors. He frowned as he entered his office

The PR department sought his opinion. Mr. Lippert, the press is still buzzing. Do you want to visit the family of the man who jumped from the building?” 

No need.Ludwik’s eyes were sharp as a hawk’s. Call Felix in.” 

At the door, however, Felix rushed in, followed by the CFO of Imperial Gem Corporation. Both were pale as ghosts

Ludwik was about to ask about the man who had jumped, his gaze icy, as he started to speak, What’s wrong?” 

Mr. Lippert! There’s been a breach at Imperial Gem Corporation. I was just consolidating all the cash assets when suddenly, over 400 billion dollars in liquid assets were swiped! The funds have been transferred overseas. We tried to freeze the account, but because it’s through Citibank, we couldn’t stop it in time, and now the funds have entered the other company’s account!” 

Ludwik’s Adam’s apple stopped momentarily. He knew exactly how much 400 billion dollars meant it was all the liquid assets of Imperial Gem Corporation

Who stole it?His expression turned to ice, his aura terrifying

Felix, shaking, could hardly speak

Ludwik stood tall, his presence in the office overwhelming Nolan

He swept the papers off his desk

Felix seemed to collapse, shaking uncontrollably, and never had he found it so difficult to speak, his entire body frozen 

It wasMadam” 

Ludwik paused, his lips curling slightly Nonsense. Call her back from her uncle’s place.” 

Felix watched the disbelief on his boss’s face and the indifference that suddenly made his heart scrape with pain. He trembled as he laid down the bank receipt, saying, It’s trueMr. Lippert, the black card could bankrupt you. It requires her fingerprint and signature, dozens of them. They’re all here!” 

Ludwik glanced at the documents, speechless. His striking features were suddenly as rigid as stone

His fierce gaze cut through the air like countless arrows

He remained motionless, his chill seeping into his bones

Felix felt unbearable discomfort

Ludwik had to pay 120 billion dollars because of Whitney, but because of how much he doted on her, he did not say a word

Yet, Whitney had transferred all of Ludwik’s liquid assets, which were 400 billion dollars

Felix could not believe it

It was like knives falling from the sky

Ludwik regained composure, his face emotionless as he asked, Who paid the jumper?” 

Felix felt Ludwik knew the answer
