Love Beyond the Mask novel Chapter 1198

Whitney continued, “Well, the clock’s ticking and there’s no turning back. Not my fault you’re such a charmer—Sienna couldn’t help but fall for you.”

“Look, Ludwik’s already made a mess with the whole ‘sisters tangled up in drama’ situation. Don’t you dare repeat it.”

Shane rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed. “Are you trying to gross me out?”

Whitney just raised her eyebrows. “You need to nip things with Sienna in the bud if you want to be worthy of Sandy.”

“Alright, alright, my future sister-in-law, can you just zip it? I’ll handle it today.”

Shane shot off his text and didn’t bother replying to her after that.

Whitney put her phone away with a sigh. Some days it felt like she had a mountain of her own problems, but somehow she always ended up worrying about everyone else’s business too.

If she wasn’t such good friends with Shane, she wouldn’t care less about his love life.

Not to mention, she’d love to squash whatever ideas Emma was getting.

Seriously, it was pointless. They were all family now—she had no interest in playing those petty games.

As long as Sienna didn’t end up with Shane, there’d be a lot less drama in the future.

Florence might be gone, but Sienna was a handful. If she thought she could step up and be the next Florence, Whitney would have no problem cutting her down to size right now.

Her eyes grew cool for a moment. She took a deep breath, smoothed out her expression, and drove back to Nelson Hospital.

She was supposed to report back to Ludwik.

But her mind kept drifting to Hudson. Had he managed to see her mom yet?

First thing Whitney did was head straight to Parisa’s room. Out in the hallway, she spotted Hudson’s assistant waiting outside—no sign of Hudson or his wheelchair.

Whitney shot a cautious glance at the window of her mom’s room and allowed herself a small, satisfied smile.

Looks like Dad had taken her advice and gone in after all.

The door wasn’t completely shut. Maybe her mom was nervous, or just wanted the nurse to keep an eye out so things wouldn’t get awkward.
