Emma was caught off guard; the voice that greeted her wasn't Brielle's as she’d expected but a man’s.
Pushing the door open, she stepped in to find Dustin turning around in his swivel chair.
Her whole body tensed at the sight of him.
Dustin raised an eyebrow slightly, acknowledging her presence.
Emma quickly composed herself, subtly hiding the application form behind her back. The form detailed her pregnancy, and she couldn’t help but worry about his reaction if he saw it.
“Mr. Lynch, where’s Mr. Haywood?” she asked, curious about his presence.
Dustin leaned back, his gaze slowly scanning her. “What do you need from Bree?”
Bree? So informal?
Emma momentarily wondered about the nature of his relationship with Brielle but reminded herself it was none of her business. She had settled into her life in Beaconsfield, and things were looking up. Besides, if Mr. Haywood and Dustin were indeed close, it would only be to Dustin's credit, given how impressive Brielle was.
“It’s about a live stream issue. Since Mr. Haywood isn’t here, I’ll come back another time.”
Dustin stood up and slowly approached her. “What's that you’re holding? Isn’t it meant for Bree? You can give it to me.”
He reached out to take it, but Emma stepped back, clutching the document close. “It’s personal.”
Their eyes locked, Emma standing her ground. “I'd prefer to hand it directly to Mr. Haywood.”
Dustin chuckled, raising an eyebrow. “You work at Stellar Stage Entertainment and you don’t know about me and Bree?”
Emma had heard a lot about Brielle but was unaware that she and Infinity Brilliance's Dustin were siblings. She merely looked at him coolly.
Her cautious demeanor made her seem like a wild animal, ready to defend itself at any moment.
