Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 896

This woman... Maybe he had just painted her too perfect, too pure in his mind. In reality, she was open, promiscuous, playing him and his brother against each other. Did she feel accomplished?

Ha, frivolous and shameless.

That was it; no more glorifying her, no more meddling in her messy affairs!

Parker suddenly stood up, his tall and lean figure like a sharp sword, muscles taut under his shirt, emitting a cold aura that threatened every living thing around.

Doctors and nurses dared not breathe.

Anyone who says men with glasses are mild and scholarly hadn't met this guy!

This handsome gentleman was the embodiment of terror.

But the man didn’t lash out further. Before leaving, he just threw a cold glance at the doctor and sneered, "You better not have lied, or I'll make you wish you hadn't been born."

The chief doctor hid behind his desk, trembling. Oh God, he was under Ms. Melford's thumb!

Seeing his belief, the doctor hurriedly nodded, "It's true, all true."

Parker’s wrath subsided.

So what if he had loved a couple of trashy women blindly?

Hoping the child was his was just a delusion, laughable!

If she wanted to stick with Barclay, that pile of garbage, he couldn't care less. He wished them a life of mutual stench. She would never know happiness again.

With a heart full of hatred, he left the hospital.

He went back to the bar alone, got blind drunk, picked fights with several bartenders, and even attracted police attention. The scene was utter chaos.

Eventually, Ashton showed up with a grim face and dragged the madman out.

“Hold on! Tell me, why isn’t that child mine…”

“Parker!” Ashton, losing his patience, punched him.

Parker’s scholarly glasses flew off, revealing his drunken, lovelorn eyes, narrow and laden with loneliness and hurt.

“You’re so damn immature. Haven’t you ever been through a breakup before?” Ashton roared, furious.

“Is that what it was? I was almost a dad, looking forward to marrying her as an excuse. But no, not my child... And it’s Barclay’s again. What’s so good about that thug? Is he that great in bed?

Tiana, you’re so shallow, you deserve every bit of your miserable life, deserve to suffer for three years…”

“Enough! Shut up.” Ashton couldn’t bear to listen anymore, though he knew little about the situation.

But seeing Whitney’s expression these past days, that Tiana must have had her reasons.

“How did you end up like this after leaving the hospital? How much did you drink?” Ashton was overwhelmed by the smell of alcohol.

“Can’t I drink my heartbreak away? Just let me die.”

“This is pathetic! Never been in love before, huh? And to think you’re the heir of the Doonan family, a force to be reckoned with. It’s embarrassing!” Ashton grumbled, lifting him up, “Damn, all muscle and I can barely carry you.”

Somehow, he managed to get the drunken troublemaker into the car.

Parker stumbled and vomited all over the car without a care for his image.

“…”

Watching his new car get spoiled, Ashton’s anger reached its peak, “Get the hell up!

Parker, snap out of it. Is the sky falling down?

So it’s not your kid, big deal! I’m much older than you and did I freak out?

Mulling over these words, Valerie’s cold, beautiful face flashed through his mind, startling him.

“Alright, cry it out this one time, but then you need to move on.

Parker, I think you really liked that little cherry girl, wanted a child with Tiana.

But it turned out to be a huge letdown, and Tiana gave you a bitter irony. It’s normal to hate her.

Once you’re sober, just forget her, spare yourself the heartache.”

Parker felt the sharpest pain in his heart at that moment, unwilling to let go.

He scoffed coldly, hoping that once he sobered up, he could completely forget her and that mocking child. She’d better get rid of it soon!

Afterward, he’d find a faithful, clean woman and have a child truly his own.

Tiana would eventually become a thing of the past in his mind.

Everything seemed so perfect in theory.

Parker felt like a real man, full of pride. How could he not achieve this?

Slumped in the backseat, Parker used his arm to shield his eyes from the harsh streetlights, trying to hide the sting of unshed tears... He went through his phone and deleted every trace of Tiana—her social media profiles, her phone number, everything.

That was it. He was never going to see her again.

Ashton watched his friend's drunken antics, his face darkening with annoyance. He couldn't help but think how ridiculously childish Parker was acting, especially considering he'd never really been in a serious relationship before...

Shaking his head, Ashton decided to mess with Parker a bit. He purposefully swerved the car, taking turns a bit too sharply, speeding down the roads like a maniac.

The erratic driving proved too much for Parker. Overwhelmed and utterly smashed, he eventually lost consciousness and passed out.
