Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 1095

But he offhandedly tossed a knife to Joseph.

In that moment, Joseph struggled to grab the knife, cutting through the ropes binding his legs. He quickly threw on a shirt from beside the bed and trailed after him, step by step.

King was a bit confused. Why was this guy following him? He wasn't into that kind of thing.

Before he could say anything, he watched as Joseph turned around and knelt down in silence.

Like a loyal, devoted dog.

But King didn't need a dog. He trusted no one.

"Sir, my life is in your hands now."

This came from a nineteen-year-old, but King wasn't much older himself.

"My name's Joseph. I'm from the Sanchez family."

In North America, the famous casinos are run by the Sanchez family.

Anyone involved with casinos couldn't be good news.

But then, King wasn't exactly a saint himself, so he found the whole casino business quite intriguing.

A smirk crossed his face. He had an idea.

"What do you need from me to take down the Sanchez family?"

He saw a fire in this man's eyes, a fire of vengeance.

A tiny spark can start a great fire, and this blaze was ready to consume the Sanchez family.

Joseph had already seized control of the Sanchez family, just not publicly. The family was caught up in their internal squabbles, all of them losers in the end.

Joseph had inherited King's mantle, enjoying the sight of these people fighting amongst themselves to no avail.

That's why Kailee had said, someone would step in to stop her.

In reality, the Sanchez family had long been Joseph's, and King's by extension, though no one knew it.

For a month, King had been in and out of consciousness, only ensuring Brielle was sent away before slipping into unconsciousness.

Joseph, not trusting anyone else with his care, entrusted King's safety to Myles, King's shadow.

Joseph was the fourth to enter the castle, after King, Brielle, and Isaac.

Now, as he kneeled by the awakening King, he sought forgiveness for entering without permission and living there for a month.

King didn't blame him; instead, he had him deliver meals to Isaac.

This was the first time King really saw Joseph.
