Love Beyond the Mask novel Chapter 999

However, showing her ID was absolutely out of the question. After undergoing plastic surgery and mastering the art of disguise, she now looked like Whitney, or rather, Parisa.

If her true face on the ID card was exposed, wouldn't that give the game away?

Florence clutched her sleeves, shaking her head as tears streamed down her face, "Mom, my ID was destroyed by Whitney back home. She was relentless, forcing me into being undocumented to prevent me from escaping. I don’t have an ID now. I’m 26 years old, my name is Florence, and you’re my mom. I knew it the moment I saw your face.

If you still have doubts, why don’t we use my hair for a DNA test?"

As she spoke, Florence reached to pull out her hair.

Parisa glanced at the DNA test results on the table and shook her head, "No need. Since you came to me, I already know our relation. No ID, no problem. Erik will arrange a Germinia ID for you. You should stay in the hospital and recuperate.

I'll be traveling to Francalia for three days. When I return, I’ll investigate your situation back home, and then we’ll visit Harmonia Country together. I want to pay respects to your grandfather and uncle, and of course, settle any scores."

She addressed Florence’s earlier request.

Florence's heart leaped with joy, and she visibly relaxed, glad that Parisa didn't suspect the issue with her ID.

She nodded obediently, her voice weak, "Mom, take care of your business. I'll stay in the hospital as told. With you looking out for me and my child, we'll be safe. I trust you to avenge the wrongs done to me back home."

Parisa felt a slight unease. Her daughter seemed overly focused on revenge.

Was it the result of being wronged too much, changing her nature, or was she trying to use her mother?

Regardless, this was her daughter who had suffered, and naturally, she intended to seek justice for her.

"Erik, contact the director of SanctumMary Medical and have him prepare the most luxurious ward for Florence. Arrange for a doctor and nurse to take good care of her."

"Yes, Chairman. Miss Florence, the Chairman has a meeting to attend. Please follow me outside."

"Thank you, Mom. I’ll head to the hospital then." Florence affectionately shook Parisa’s wrist, pouting playfully before leaving.

Following Erik to the office outside, Florence saw the grandeur of the office space, with hundreds of elite employees working for the Inko Group's headquarters.

Her heart soared as she silently appraised Parisa's net worth. Being the global Chairman of Inko was a position even more prestigious than that of Phineas and Ludwik. Oh, to think that all of Inko’s limitless wealth would someday belong to her, the impostor.

She could barely contain her excitement, thinking of Whitney getting nothing.

Her eyes greedily scanned the office.

Erik noticed the unmistakable excitement in the girl's eyes and paused momentarily. If not for the DNA test's certainty, he might have doubted her identity.

Except for a slight resemblance to the Chairman, their demeanors were worlds apart.

"Miss Florence, please, this way to the elevator." He reminded her.

Florence snapped out of her reverie and weakly stepped into the elevator.
