Love beyond the mask (Whitney) novel Chapter 1233

Sandy’s eyes fluttered as she shook her head softly. “Shane, even if I lost all my memories, a person’s nature comes from how they grow up. Do I look like the kind of woman who’d just throw herself at anyone?”

She let out a shaky breath. “I believe that back then, maybe Florence set me up again… You were so jealous, but you never really questioned me, never tried to get to the bottom of it!”

Shane pressed his fingers to his brow, his expression dark and heavy. “Sandy, I know. I’ve paid a huge price for being so impulsive back then. Years of regret.

I was young, full of pride. To be played by my own stepdaughter—I just couldn’t take it.

I made up my mind to forget you, just disappear into the crowd, never look back.

But a year later, when I returned to Londinium, right outside my old apartment, I found a baby.

A baby girl, just left there. No note, nothing.

I took her to the hospital, got her checked out, found out exactly how old she was, even did a DNA test… Turns out, she’s my daughter.

And then I thought of you.

I rushed to your university, but you were gone. Florence told me you’d used that Brittainia businessman’s connections to graduate early, and that you’d moved back home for work. She said the man even went with you to Harmonia Country.

So I figured, that was it. You’d dumped the baby on me because you didn’t want her.

I was furious. I hated you then—how could you be so cold and irresponsible? If you didn’t love this child, why did you give birth to her? I thought you were just trying to get back at me.

But still, I took her home. She was innocent. I spoiled Tina, gave her everything. But I never once mentioned you, her mother.

I didn’t want to see you ever again. I even swore, if I ever did, I’d tear you apart.

But then… something happened that shook me.”
