Love Beyond the Mask novel Chapter 352

Half an hour later, an unexpected figure appeared.

Whitney had been waiting for Jarvis to return to the hotel with a woman, but instead, Elaine showed up! She was heavily disguised, unrecognizable from her appearance alone, but she was followed by a maid, Lyra, whom Whitney recognized.

Interesting…

Whitney immediately got up and dashed out of the pub, heading across the street.

"Hey, why are you leaving me here..." Orion's complaining voice trailed off behind her.

-

Across the street, Whitney cautiously approached Elaine's car. A low-key BMW, not the flashy model she usually drove. Equally discreet was the five-star hotel they entered, which Whitney found to be famously 'romantic' upon a quick search.

She narrowed her eyes as she saw Elaine, heavily disguised, enter the lobby, with Lyra picking up a key card from the front desk. The two then familiarly headed for the elevator.

Whitney sneaked in, noticing the elevator stopped at the 10th, 12th, 16th, and 18th floors, continuing upwards.

She chuckled coldly, approached the front desk, and asked, "Where's your VIP presidential suite located? I'm a bit afraid of heights and considering it for my stay."

Thinking she was a guest, the front desk clerk replied, "Good evening, our presidential suite is on the 16th floor."

"Thank you."

Whitney quickly stepped aside and called Tiana, "Tiana, can you hack into the 16th floor's hallway surveillance of the Crystaline Hotel? I need it now!"

"I'll see what I can do. Why, is Jarvis on the 16th floor? Did he bring a woman back? That woman is... Holy smokes!"

With a few taps, the surveillance feed popped up, momentarily blinding Tiana with its revelation.

Her shock was all Whitney needed to know things were getting interesting.

"Got it? Send it to me live."

"Whitney, this is some juicy secret... You won't believe..."

Tiana shrieked, transferring the bar's surveillance feed to Whitney's phone.

In the luxurious hallway, Elaine rushed out of the elevator, impatiently knocking on a door. Then, Jarvis appeared with a devilish grin, Elaine jumping into his arms as they entered the room, hardly able to keep her hands off him in the hallway.

"Man, I didn't see Elaine being this wild. How long has Ludwik been starving her, she's like a famished wolf jumping at food."

"Wrong focus. The real question is, how did she get involved with Jarvis?"

Whitney smirked.

"Judging by how familiar she is with the place, clearly this isn't her first rendezvous with Jarvis!"

"Yup." Whitney leaned against the wall, taking a deep breath with a smile. "A pleasant surprise. Following the kidnapping case, I knew there was some connection between Jarvis and Elaine. But an affair? This has been going on for a while, so Jarvis must've helped Elaine plan the kidnapping."

"Holy cow, Elaine has been cheating on Ludwik this long, does that scumbag even know? Probably clueless, which is why Elaine's been having such a blast behind his back. She's crafty, marrying the billionaire powerhouse Mr. Lippert, and feasting with Jarvis on the side. Hey, was Ludwik really that bad for her? How did he manage five rounds in one night with you..."

That last comment left Whitney coughing, abruptly cutting off the gossiper, and picking up with a smirk, "Tiana, dig up all the evidence of their affair. Now that we've caught them, we can't let them off. Gather everything, including hotel surveillance. I've got a big wedding gift for Elaine."

Tiana, thrilled by the plan, "I thought you were really letting go, allowing them to marry smoothly."

"I've let go. But a smooth wedding, blessing Elaine? Not in her wildest dreams. There's progress in the kidnapping case. Perhaps on the wedding day, Ludwik will see his bride's true colors."

"Yeah, she's been fooling Ludwik behind a mask for too long. It's time for her facade to crumble!"

Tiana rubbed her hands, getting to work.

-

Whitney pocketed her phone and stepped away from the pillar, leaving the hotel. In the dimly lit square, she bumped into Ludwik, with Orion trailing behind him.

What's going on here?

She was perplexed.
