Love Beyond the Mask novel Chapter 882

"I like her, and what's it to you? You're not my fiancée anymore."

Parker didn't deny it, his thin lips forming a cold line, "Endora, if you had any sense, you wouldn't be so shameless. Keeping on pestering me like this, I'll have no choice but to cut you off without mercy. I've already called my folks to call off our engagement. Don't get yourself ostracized by the Melford family in Banyan City!"

Parker's words were measured, but Endora could sense his icy detachment. She pouted, tears brimming in her eyes, "My love for you is unrequited! No matter how you treat me, I can't give up, because letting go of a love that deep is just too hard. I've come to terms with it, I don't mind that you like Tiana, but... she's pregnant now. I found out at the clinic this morning. I bumped into her at the OB-GYN. I was shocked, too. How could Tiana just get pregnant like that? She's always been so careless... I didn't dare ask her whose it is... Maybe it's your brother Barclay's, huh?"

Parker was beyond listening at this point!

He stormed out of the café, his mind reeling with Endora's words: She's really pregnant! Tiana... how could you, how dare you? Nothing had ever knocked him down before, but now his face was a mask of icy distance, like a walking corpse.

With whom, did she sleep?

He kicked the car door in frustration, his fist hitting the metal until his knuckles bled, "Damn it, Tiana. I liked you so much, and you just... what did you take my feelings for?"

Parker couldn't bear the blow.

He got into the car, gripping the steering wheel tightly, the vehicle spinning around as if flying on the road. The glaring sunlight filtered through his aviator sunglasses, casting shadows over his sharp nose, his handsome features shadowed with gloom.

He refused to believe she had been with another man.

If she had, it had to be with him! Ever since coming back from Saltland Island, he'd been haunted by vivid dreams of her.

The realism of those dreams, where they were intimate, had even made him confront her about it. That night at Delight Mansion, when he stayed over, he almost got some truths out of her. But then Endora ruined everything.

Tiana, that ungrateful woman, even said she didn't like him!

Parker had his pride. He couldn't grovel, so he cut ties and spent the following days bringing down Bryce with Ludwik, tormented by the ordeal.

Now that it was over, and he'd shaken off Endora, he found out... she was pregnant.

Wait...

That day in Tiana's bedroom, when he almost pinned her down, only stopping when Tiana asked if he'd take responsibility if there had been something between them before...

Wait!

A thought struck Parker like lightning, nearly causing him to crash into the guardrail.

Why hadn't he considered the deeper meaning behind her question? On Saltland Island... when he was confined by her uncle and lost his memory, could something have happened between them? Could it be that after regaining his memory, he forgot those few days?

Was it possible?

He'd heard that some people, after regaining lost memories, forget what happened during the amnesiac period.

If he had been with her, that's why he felt so close to her upon returning to Emperor City.

If he had been with her, and now she was found to be pregnant, that child...

Parker faced the sunlight, suddenly unafraid, his heart filling with excitement and an indescribable emotion...

He floored the accelerator, deciding to give himself another chance, to confront her face-to-face. The child... could it be his?
