Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279 

The hatred was like lava, scalding Brielle’s heart until it trembled. She feared Cameron might take another drastic measure, but he merely gazed at her with profound intensity, barely clinging to his sanity

Lillian’s lost three fingers, Brielle. If you want Grandpa to live out his days in peace, you’ll tell Max to back off. Lillian should be out of the station by now. Three fingers should suffice to quench your grudge, right? If I don’t get your call by six tonight, I’ll pay Grandpa a visit

With that, he followed the doctor who had entered, helping Miranda as they left

The moment the hospital door shut, Aubree retched again, her face deathly pale. Were those really Lillian’s fingers?” 

Brielle leaned back against her pillow, her voice calm. Yeah.” 

This was Aubree’s first brush with such a scene, her stomach churning with acid, feeling as if her very teeth were souring. Bri, Max couldn’t have done this, could he?” 

No, it wasn’t him.” 

Maybe Max had another side to him, but he’d never present such a gruesome gift

Then who? Who harbored such deep resentment towards Lillian? Her head throbbed with the effort of thinking, but no clear leads emerged

Brielle’s head ached, the shock of those severed fingers still lingering in her mind. And now. with Cameron’s threat, should she really contact Max and ask him to stop

As Cameron had said, Julian was a Haywood through and through. The downfall of the Haywood family would surely affect him. Julian didn’t have many days left

Brielle was torn, feeling as though something was drilling into her head

Sensing Brielle’s exhaustion, Aubree stood up. Bri, don’t take this the wrong way, but while Julian’s been good to you, you’ve been just as good to him as well. He’s the Haywood’s responsibility, not yours. They have no right to use him to manipulate you. Think about all the hurt they’ve inflicted on you. Can you really let it go just like that? If Max really took action for you, and you tell him to stop, what does that make him? Weigh it out. I’ll come and check on you later.” 

To survive in the cutthroat circles of Beaconsfield, you had to let go of some thingslike

emotions, like humanity. The more you discarded, the higher you rose. Those who couldn’t let go ended up achieving nothing

If she continued to be shackled by the Haywoodsdemands, she would indeed accomplish nothing

However, Brielle’s mind conjured Julian’s face, kind and benevolent, one of the most significant figures in her life, along with Mark

But now, both had become leverage against her

She glanced down at her legs and smiled faintly

Downstairs, Miranda had woken up after being pinched at the vital point. The image of those three fingers haunted her vision, making her bolt upright. Lillian, my poor girl. I must go to your grandfather!”
