Chapter 229
Andrew’s face darkened in an instant, and he spoke with a chilling tone. “What did you say?”
It was then that Tiffanie realized she wasn’t speaking to Max, but to Andrew. She swiftly thought to hang up, but considering Brielle’s situation, she knew she couldn’t afford any delays.
“Aren’t you? If you weren’t backing Tessa, would she be so bold? I’m telling you, if anything happens to Brielle, Maxie won’t let you off the hook.”
Andrew felt like his chest was about to explode, his teeth clenched tightly, “Tiffanie, who do you think you’re talking to?”
“I’m not afraid of you like everyone else. Pass the phone to Maxie. I need to discuss Brielle’s matter with him.”
But Andrew hung up abruptly, leaving her with a headache from the frustration. Tiffanie tried to call again only to find she had been blocked. A sharp glint passed through her eyes. This Andrew, he had crossed the line.
She then called Patrick, succinctly conveying the possibility that Brielle was having troubles. with the Rowlands. Patrick didn’t dare delay and immediately contacted Max. By this time, Max had already come back from the balcony, his phone gripped tightly in his hand. And right on cue, Patrick’s call came through.
“Mr. Dorsey. Tiffanie reports that Ms. Brielle upset Tessa and Tessa passed out, and now Ms. Brielle’s phone is unreachable. I’ve already had someone trace Ms. Brielle’s cell, but the signal is being jammed.”
Max’s brow furrowed deeply, and he instantly turned toward Andrew.
Andrew was casually leaning back, legs crossed. Noticing Max’s gaze, he looked up with a smirk.
“Andrew, is Brielle with the Rowlands?”
Andrew raised an eyebrow, leaning back further, “Yes, she must have gone through a round of punishment by now.”
The moment his words fell, Max grasped the collar of his shirt. Their distance closed abruptly. and it was the first time Andrew had been treated this way by Max, the air between them growing thin.
The other heirs in the vicinity had never seen the two in such a tense stand–off. Everyone knew how close they were, so what was happening now?
Kenzo quickly stepped forward, placing a hand on Max’s wrist. “Max, let’s talk this out.”
Max’s gaze was
icy as he released Andrew’s collar and strode out the door. Andrew adjusted his collar and followed.

Kenzo, seeing things escalate, quickly tried to ease the tension with a smile to the others. “Everyone, please, let’s stay calm. I’ll go up and check on them.”
In the presence of these three big shots, the others didn’t dare to speak up.
Kenzo saw Max getting into his car, with Andrew following suit in his own vehicle. After a moment’s thought, Kenzo tapped on Max’s window, but Max floored the accelerator, leaving Kenzo in a cloud of exhaust.
