Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Brielle glanced at the date on her phone screen and realized she’d lost herself in another night.

Outside, the rain was coming down in buckets, and the warmth wrapped around her waist tightened like vines. She reached for her phone and saw it was Spencer calling, so she hit the answer button.

“Hello?”

The man beside her seemed to stir awake. Brielle quickly lowered her voice, “Spencer,

what’s up?”

Her throat was so hoarse she could barely speak, so she got out of bed to pour herself at glass of water to soothe it.

“Where have you been these past couple of days? Lillian and I have been texting you like crazy, and you haven’t responded.”

Brielle tied her robe and met the man’s gaze as she lifted her head. He had a strong presence, with a high nose and deep-set eyes, which gave him an air of aloof coolness.

A sense of relief washed over her: Sure, she was spent, but at least she’d managed to cheat on Spencer as well.

What goes around comes around.

“Well, I didn’t see them. Is there something wrong?” Brielle nonchalantly picked up the suit jacket from the floor.

“Uncle Max is back in town. I’m picking you up in ten minutes for a family dinner.”

Before Brielle could reply, Spencer hung up. Brielle raised an eyebrow and then turned to

Max.

“Uncle Max, you are going back home?” Her tone was teasing and alluring.

Just then, a knock came at the door.

Was Spencer here already?
