Love Beyond the Mask novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160 

Elaine stormed into the CEO’s office, disbelief etched on her face. What on earth is Whitney thinking? Ludwik, why would she siphon off 400 billion of your liquid assets? What’s her endgame?” 

Even Felix could not temper Elaine’s fury because, indeed, Whitney’s move was akin to pushing the CEO into a corner with no way out

Why would she do this

Mr. Lippert, we’ve located Madam!” 

Where?Ludwik’s face was a mask, cold and unmoving. He stood up, ready to leave

He remained deaf to the clamor outside, his bodyguards blocking anyone from approaching, his mind and sight filled with thoughts of that woman

Did Orion coerce her

He could not believe it. He refused to believe that she would drain all the funds from his company, forcing him into the brink of bankruptcy

Elaine followed him into the car, staying close by his side

Felix pulled out the investigation results, his brow furrowed. Mr. Lippert, I’ve doublechecked. The 400 billion was transferred to an offshore construction company that just won the bid for the Braxton property a couple of days ago It’s Orion’s.” 

The revelation hit like thunder

Ludwik’s gaze was icy as the depths of hell

Whitney had made a mistake in the bidding documents, causing him to lose the hotel project

He thought it was an accident and was willing to trust her 

Now, with the hotel project scrapped and a 120 billion compensation looming, Whitney transferred his 400 billion dollars away

No, he could not believe it. How could she be involved with Orion? He just could not believe it

His heart was icecold as he rode in silence

Soon, the car arrived at a villa in the suburbs. Felix signaled the armed bodyguards to split into two teams and 

sneak in

Ludwik did not wait for the bodyguards to clear the way; his lean, frosty hand pushed open the villa’s front door

There were voices in the lit living room, and the door closed tight

His ears caught the woman’s voice he could not be more familiar with 

Have you had enough of hurting Ludwik? I think it’s enough. Let me go!” 

Whitney, it’s we’the three of us took our revenge! Thanks to Boss’s help, Ludwik’s downfall came quickly. I’ve been hiding for ten years, and now that his liquid assets are gone, all the investment companies will turn on him. Imperial Gem Corporation is on the verge of collapse, and with his money, we’ll take over his company, and the Tennyson family legacy will be restored!” 

Whitney watched her uncle’s manic excitement and did not recognize him anymore. Who was the real corporate predator

Perhaps revenge was just a pretext, she thought chillingly

She just wanted to escape, to return to his side no matter what. He must be going through a hard time right

now

But her uncle would not let her go. After a day of torment, Whitney felt her sanity was fraying

She echoed mockingly. Yes, we did it together. We hurt him. Uncle, open the door. I want to leave.” 

Sisterinlaw, we’re in this together now. You can’t leaveThe sinister man approached, lifting Whitney’s chin

YouOrion?Whitney’s face turned as pale as frost as she finally got her answer

A gunshot shattered the silence, and the tightly closed door burst open

In the aftermath, the door slowly cracked, revealing the endless cold night outside

From the darkness emerged a figure, imposing like a demon from hell, the man’s tall frame clad in a black suit that seemed to herald doom 

Yet his face was deathly pale, and his chilling gaze fixed on Orion, touching Whitney’s chin with a smirk

The woman sat in a chair, her words echoing in Ludwik’s ears

She called Orion by name, and she knew him well 

And she, oh, had long known his true identity. What a cunning woman she was 

She spoke of their joint revenge as if they had accomplished some great deed together

Ludwik stared at the woman, her delicate face pale with terror. He laugheda laugh that rang with the coldness of an icy river

Lud.. L?Whitney saw him, her body stiffening with dread. Her face was ashen

Why was he here? Was he looking for her? How much of her desperate lies, forced by circumstances, had he heard

Her fingers trembled violently as she stood up from her chair

Ludwik gestured with his gun, stepping forward with a silent and deadly grace. Beneath his coldblooded demeanor, his heart was shattered beyond repair

So, Whitney, you’re in league with Orion?He asked with a laugh that was both sinister and cold 

No, Ludwik, L. Whitney stammered out

His laugh grew more chilling and cruel. When did you find out who I am? Such a flawless act.” 

Listen to meShe tried to approach him

He halted, his stance rigid like twin blades. Suddenly, his expression vanished. You said you’d come into my life, into my company, and give it your all. You wouldn’t leave me alone. This morning, you said that we’d face it together when you woke up

I wonder why I’ve been so out of it all day. And why you were suddenly willing to wear the ring? Turns out, it was all a sweet trap. His laughter echoed, carrying the chill of icy waters

LudwikWhitney’s breath caught as though she inhaled knives, pain wracking her body

She suddenly realized that she could no longer explain herself to Ludwik
