Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349 

Mr. Dorsey, what I’m talking about here is strictly businessthe Book project is no small feat.Brielle. I really don’t feel like talking shop right now.His tone was casual, and his presence emanated a gentle coolness that seemed almost out of place for a man who’d just shown such repulsion to the advances of an undoubtedly attractive woman

Brielle fell silent. Her experience in matters of the heart was scant. Beyond traveling over hills and across streams to follow her desires, she knew nothing of love’s games, content instead to wait awkwardly for her beloved’s return

This was Brielle in her most raw and precious form

His voice continued to reach her ears, Haven’t you missed me?” 

Brielle’s lips pressed tighter, her heart pounding a wild rhythm. She was no match for Max. If Max decided to use his charm, no woman could escape

Tears welled in her eyes as if she had been hurt

Despite his hotandcold demeanor and despite the lack of promises, which included a featherlight assurance wait for his return, she wanted to believe, to love with fervor

Human greed could be quite endearing at times. Faced with feelings of affection, it was innate to become a gambler. Everyone hopes for that stroke of luck to hit themjust one gamble, just 

once

Yeah, a little.” 

Only a little, Brielle?” 

Max chuckled softly on the other end, gazing out at the few irises blooming outside his window. He seemed to feel more than just a little.‘ 

When will you return, Mr. Dorsey?To clarify everything… 

A flicker of amusement crossed Max’s eyes, but before he could speak, a commotion arose at the door. It was Alivia, her arms full of a lunchbox that now spilled its contents chaotically across the floor

His brow furrowed in annoyance

Horror painted Alivia’s face as she struggled with disbelief. Max was using such a tender tone with someone else. Max could be sweet, laugh, and be as careful and hopeful as any ordinary man in love

Alivia’s features twisted in a fury, her head bowed to hide the storm raging across her face

The hatred was palpable. Briellewas it Brielle who had stolen what she loved most? Was Max’s smile for the irises, or was it for Brielle

Chapter 349 

Alivia’s beloved deity seemed to have descended among the common folk, and for that, she was unforgiving

Alivia’s chest heaved with suppressed rage, yet when she lifted her head, her face was alight with a radiant smile. Clumsy me, I just got a bit shaky, Max. Are you on the phone?

Max, interrupted at a crucial moment, felt a noticeable Irritation. As his gaze met Alivia’s, all warmth withdrew, replaced by the detachment of a machine

Behold, the stark contrast between affection and Indifference

Alivia seethed internally, her surface smile belying the tempest within. I made some soup for Martha. The doctor did say we should nourish her well, didn’t he? I’ve been out since dawn gathering the ingredients.” 

Max didn’t respond to her. Instead, he quietly told Brielle, I’ll talk to you when I get back.He didn’t want Brielle to be exposed to Alivia

After hanging up, he frowned in confusion. We have top chefs here.”
