Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 1393

Tiffanie stood motionless, not even thinking of following him. When his figure finally disappeared, she blinked, then collapsed to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.

Mason kept walking until he reached his car, where Everett was lounging in the backseat, decked out in a sharp suit and eagerly watching the world go by.

"Son, are we heading to Unicorn Bar now? You sure you can get me a job there?"

"By the way, who did you see that made you jump out of the car like that? And where did you spend the night?"

"It couldn't have been Tiffanie's place, right? She's in the hospital, and you didn’t drive anywhere near there."

Mason gripped the steering wheel, his eyes red as he stared straight ahead. "Alumni dinner."

Everett breathed a sigh of relief, a smile creeping onto his face. He'd swung by Tiffanie's place that morning and found out the landlord finally had enough of the mess and kicked her out. Now, she was who knew where. He had to make sure she didn’t come back to bother Mason.
