Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 

Elaine stood her ground, waiting for the woman to give way. In Banyan City, she was pampered, a socialite whose path was never obstructed, a queen in her own right

Yet the woman before her didn’t budge, almost as if she was intentionally blocking Elaine’s 

way

Impatient, Elaine nodded subtly to her side

The female bodyguard, imposing and fierce, stepped forward. Can’t you see Mrs. Lippert is here? Scram!” 

Whitney crossed her arms, a grin spreading across her face. Well, if it isn’t Mrs. Lippert!” 

That voice, slightly hoarse… 

Elaine, stunned for a moment, felt a sense of familiarity. She sharply lifted her head

When she saw the haunting visage behind the veil, Elaine’s eyes widened in disbelief

Whitney?she exclaimed, staring at Whitney as her phone clattered to the floor. She stumbled backward, screaming, Ghost! A ghost!” 

Elaine?The bodyguard rushed to support her

How are you here? You’re supposed to be dead!Elaine, gripping with fear and almost wetting herself, stared at Whitney

When she finally saw Whitney’s shadow, Elaine’s face turned ashen, and she murmured with a mix of calm and trepidation, YouYou didn’t die?” 

Impossible. Elaine had watched the destruction of a woman’s body that the rescue team had retrieved years ago

Whitney stepped closer, her cold laugh making her pale face even more chilling. Disappointed I’m not dead? You seem awfully sure. It’s as if you were there that night, forcing me, a pregnant woman, to the brink, watching me plunge into the ocean depths!” 

Elaine quickly regained her composure, her gaze turning sinister

The bodyguard immediately blocked the two socialites trying to enter and closed the restroom 

door

Elaine sized up Whitney, completely unharmed and now even more radiant than before, her jealousy evident

She smirked coldly. So you survived the ocean? They say the wicked live long. Have you been hiding these past three years, hoping to scare me today

Whitney, wake up. Three years ago, I completely obliterated you. What makes you think you can make a comeback?”

Bodyguard, dunk her in the toilet. If she drowns, just toss her out.” 

Elaine watched disinterestedly as two bodyguards advanced toward Whitney

In the dim light, something suddenly flashed, and the two female bodyguards instantly hit the floor

Elaine was appalled. She had no idea what had just happened

The next moment, Whitney grabbed Elaine by the throat

Elaine gasped, her nails trying to scratch Whitney’s face, her foot kicking fiercely

Ah!Her scream was abrupt. As a distinguished socialite, she severely lacked physical strength

Whitney kicked Elaine to the ground, dragged her by the hair like a dead dog, and slammed her head against the door three times before dragging her to the toilet

My nose! What are you doing, WhitneyWhen did you learn to fight?” 

Blood spurted from her broken nose as Elaine stared in shock at the bloodstains on the door

trembling uncontrollably, not daring to underestimate Whitney anymore. 

Then, Whitney shoved her head into the toilet and turned on the faucet. Elaine struggled fiercely

Whitney stepped on her delicate wrist and leaned down with a sinister smile. “I picked up a few tricks. You mocked me for being helpless and pregnant three years ago, remember? Now I’m light as a feather, and I can strike back at a wretch like you whenever I please. How does it feel? You like it?” 

Let me go! LudwikLudwik will make you pay for this!” 

Elaine was on the verge of tears, the filthy water choking her as she screamed in panic

I don’t know how Ludwik will make me pay, but right now, I certainly am going to make you pay,Whitney said with a soft laugh

With a hard gaze filled with hatred, Whitney remembered the desperation of that night three years ago as she fled towards the end of her life with her child, the agony of giving birth alone

and the humiliation Tiana suffered

Whitney cackled as she repeatedly dunked Elaine’s head into the water, soaking her hair through. She pulled Elaine up and, with a swish of her wet gown, tapped the droplets off her hands

Whitney reveled in Elaine’s disheveled appearance, her face twisted with a desire to tear Whitney apart. This is just the beginning. We have a long way to go, Elaine. You’ll pay for everything you’ve done to us.” 

Then, she walked out, leaving Elaine behind

Chapter 255 

Elaine clenched her fists in rage, her face smeared with grime. She ground her teeth in a fury, her voice seeping through the door crack. “WhitneyWhy won’t you die? You couldn’t beat me three years ago. What makes you think you can now?” 

Whitney’s lips curved in a cool smile as she rejoined Orion in the shadows

Orion felt a chill and shivered, looking over. Where have you been?” 

Whitney ripped off the wet hem of her dress and asked, What’s the bid at?” 

Uhthat son of a gun Ludwik bid 20 billion. I’m tapped out.” 

Without wasting a word, Whitney stepped on Orion’s polished shoe

Ouch,Orion yelped. Whitney, don’t push it.” 

The value I’ll create for Imperial Gem Corporation is worth far more than 20 billion. Keep going,Whitney demanded

Orion winced but raised his bidding paddle

At the same time, Whitney’s phone buzzed with a message from Bryce on Facebook. [Don’t worry, Whitney. I’ll protect the assets your grandfather left you. Why don’t you come sit by me?

Whitney looked up to find Bryce’s gaze warm and inviting from across the room

She felt a surge of warmth and pocketed her phone

Ludwik adjusted his tie, irritation bubbling as Bryce and Orion’s provocations stirred his anger

As he raised his bid to 20.2 billion, Elaine returned

Her hair was slightly damp, and her makeup was carefully retouched, though the swelling on her face was still evident

Ludwik, who usually paid no mind to her appearance, paused at the sight of her injuries. Elaine, what happened?” 

With a mix of fear and vulnerability, Elaine pursed her lips and soon began to weep softly. Ludwik” 

She looked up at him with a wistful gaze. “Did you know Whitney’s back?”
