Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168 

Ludwik stared at her, his heart perforated and bleeding from the night of the once beloved face that now caused him indescribable pain A pain that might never heal as long as he lived

Once the heart empties, it hardens, turning cold and unyielding like bedrock, alicing through him with the chill of a bonepiercing wind. My mother’s been miserable, thanks to you. Tos condemned to suffer for a lifetime You love me? That’s the cheapest, most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard!! 

Oh right,he growled, capturing her tiny wrists and pinning her against the wall, his grip tightening on her 

throat

He leaned in, his voice a sneer of cold mockery, Your uncle came for vengeance, thinking I’d killed your grandfather? Let me tell you, the day your mother and grandfather had that car crash, was the one who tried 

I to save them, but I failed. There was never anything but normal discord between me and your grandfather. Are you satisfied now?” 

Her heart felt pierced by countless swords, all stabbing her at once

Whitney became rigid as stone

In the sluggish recesses of her disbelief, only one thought circled: He had tried to save them

That’s why her uncle saw the mask in the wrecked carl 

Why? Why had it come to this

After she had hurt him, only then did she learn the truth

He had always been honorable, never a thief or usurper

Why did fate play such cruel games? The gentlest cut of all was delivered by his hand

Whitney clutched her chest, nearly fainting from the pain. Everything was lost, all was wrong

Seeing her pain contorted face, Ludwik’s heart numbed a fraction

He released her abruptly, hurling her away, his eyes bloodshot like a demon’s, Get lost! I never want to see you again! There’s nothing left between us but hate.” 

Hate

Whitney collapsed at the doorway, her hands covering her face as tears breached her defenses, unstoppable

The baby inside her seemed to sense the father’s words, moving desperately in distress

She curled up, biting her tongue so hard she nearly suffocated from the pain. Through her tearblurred vision, she saw Elaine on the hospital bed, giving her a cold, faint smile

It was a perfect trap. Her uncle’s revenge, Elaine the opportunist, exploiting her uncle’s hatred to weave this intricate web. But she was not innocent

Whitney’s heart broke at the thought

Ludwik’s mother had become a vegetable, how much must he be suffering

If it weren’t for her uncle’s kidnapping, none of this would have happened

It was Elaine Natalie’s kidney failure was no coincidence

Whitney struggled to rise, kneeling at the doorway, desperately knocking, her voice weak and hoarse, Ludwik, listen to me, pleaseI didn’t Hurt your mother… 

With a thud, darkness claimed her, and she collapsed to the ground

MissTaryn stood aside, noticing the blood on the back of Whitney’s white coat, her expression finally

shifting slightly

Nolan and Parker exchanged frowns of concern

Whitney, how did you end up like this?Someone pried open her parched lips and forced water in 

Whitney slowly opened her eyes, the harsh white light blinding her 

The patient is pregnant and at risk of preterm labor due to trauma. The baby’s over five months along, and she’s been starving for three to four days. If she doesn’t rest, both will be in danger the doctor stated solemnly 

I’m sorry, doctor, we’ve only just found her.” 

Was that Tiana’s voice? Whitney’s pale hand immediately went to her stomach

Whitney’s awakel Valerie approached her

My baby… 

You’ve been bleeding internally. You need to rest. The doctor said you’ve had several injuries, Tiana fretted, looking at Whitney with mixed emotions

“I shouldn’t have gone back to the old family home for New Year’s Eve. It’s only the fourth day of the year, and can’t understand what’s happened L is actually Ludwik, the CEO of Imperial Gem Corporation. And Whitney, how could you and your unclewere you really seeking revenge for the Tennyson family? You’re so confused, how could you kidnap Natalie? And why didn’t you tell any of us? if we’d known, we would have helped you! You wouldn’t be in this situation alone…” 

Whitney shook her head, tears streaking her face, Tm sorry How could I involve you in this? It’s not right” 

At first, she believed her uncle’s evidence, thinking Ludwik was the enemy. Later, when it was too late, she alone played the role of her uncle’s accompliceShe couldn’t drag her friends into it

You’re so foolish. No wonder you’ve been in such pain lately, and you wouldn’t tell us anything You and your uncle took such a wrong path, and now Ludwik’s mother is a vegetable. Did you really cause it? Nolan saidTiana was torn, reluctant to believe

The thought of Natalie lying in the hospital forever made Whitney clutch her heart and take deep breaths. She shook her head in denial, The night my uncle kidnapped Natalie, I went alone to save her, but Elaine ambushed me and took Natalie away. By the time I got to the hospital today, Natalie had become a vegetable.” 

Valerie’s eyes hardened, and she let out a scoff, I suspected as much. Anything involving Elaine is never straightforward” 

Tiana, don’t just take Nolan’s word for it. We should side with Whitney. Even with a family feud, I can see that Whitney loves Mr. Lippert. She wouldn’t harm Natalie, either emotionally or logically” 

And knowing Elaine, she takes great care of herself. She’s too selfish to donate a kidney lightly. Unless there’s a huge benefit or scheme involved.” 

Whitney closed her eyes tightly, Valerie had hit the nail on the head

Tiana’s face tensed with anger, So Whitney! You’re innocent in the kidnapping, right?” 

Yes, how could I harm Natalie? She’s been so good to meWhitney’s lips quivered with bitterness as she finally showed her vulnerability
