Chapter 192
Tessa knew the conversation was about Aubree, and it seemed Andrew hadn’t lied. He really had set Aubree up with someone.
She let out a sigh of relief. It looked like there was nothing between Andrew and Aubree after
all.
But did Aubree really match up to the CEO of Infinity Brilliance?
She snickered inwardly, took a seat next to Andrew, and spoke for him, “She did leave early, went out with a friend.”
“A friend?”
Dustin’s interest piqued, recalling the phone call Aubree had made. Could it have been Brielle?
Dustin’s reason for prodding Max tonight was because he’d learned Brielle’s real name. He’d been duped badly before, and it wasn’t until he met with Andrew back home that he found out the little canary had given him a fake name..
She really had no conscience. Didn’t they both gossip about Max when they were abroad?
“Yeah, her name is Brielle. I don’t think Mr. Lynch would know her.”
“How could I not know her? Brielle and I have had quite delightful conversations.”
He deliberately emphasized “delightful conversations,” then watched for Max’s reaction.
The man’s face darkened, not at him, but turning to Tessa. “You said Aubree left with Brielle?”
His tone seemed normal at first, but his lips were tightly pursed.
Brielle wasn’t here for him? But for Aubree?
The air in the booth felt stifling to him.
Tessa hadn’t expected Max to speak with her, and it seemed he was asking about Brielle?
“Yeah.”
She leaned towards Andrew, whispering a question only they could hear, “What’s the deal with Brielle and Max?”
Andrew was almost instinctively going to deny it, since no one yet knew about their relationship. If word got to Michael, no one would be in for a good time.
But before he could speak, Dustin stood up, raising his glass. “Mr. Dorsey, I’d like to invite Brielle over to Infinity Brilliance for a tour, business–related, of course. You wouldn’t object, would you?”
A smile played on his lips, his eyes shimmering, but Max remained unflinching, “Dorsey International has no plans to collaborate with Infinity Brilliance at this time.”

Chapter 192
“Mr. Dorsey, she’s just an employee. Why the fuss?”
Dustin leaned in, pouring Max a drink, his demeanor momentarily submissive. “Brielle won’t be at a loss with me. All stores under Infinity Brilliance will be free for her, as long as she accompanies me on a trip abroad. How about that?”
Max’s grip tightened on his glass, tempted to splash the contents over Dustin’s grinning face.
He began to wonder if he’d been too stingy with Brielle.
