Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 

Max thought of Brielle’s recent comment about being tired and responded with a simple, Yeah.That one word cut through the air like a blade

Max was an Impenetrable fortress around other women, impervious to their sweet nothings and flattery

Brielle, feeling the warmth in her palm, couldn’t help but laugh at his response. He was like a log devoid of emotion. If she were Alivia, she’d probably be seething with rage

Indeed, Alivia was on the brink of exploding, but she managed to apologize, nonetheless. I won’t call at this hour next time. Get some rest, goodnight.” 

After hanging up, Allvia took a deep breath, resisting the urge to smash everything in sight. She had to stay calml 

Her mouth tasted of blood from biting her tongue in frustration. Finally, she decided to give Spencer a call. Noah had mentioned Spencer was scheming to woo Brielle, which could make him a useful pawn in her game

Spencer answered quickly, as Alivia’s return from abroad was no secret. He was surprised by her call, though. They knew each other, sure, but they weren’t close

Spencer, it’s me.Alivia’s voice was soothing, quickly settling into a poised and proper tone

Despite his confusion, Spencer replied courteously, Calling so late, is everything alright?” 

Well, there is a small matter. I heard you’re no longer the director at Dorsey International. What happened?Alivia was cunning, not mentioning Brielle directly but meandering slowly to her point, masking her true intentions

For Spencer, the subject was a sore spot, especially since Alivia was an attractive woman. No man wanted to get embarrassed in front of a pretty lady

Dorsey International is a fair place. Some rise above others when they prove their worth.” 

I heard it was a woman who took your place. I met Noah abroad, and he mentioned her notsostellar reputation.” 

A cold smirk formed on Spencer’s lips. Alivia had barely set foot back home and was already targeting Brielle. If she knew about Brielle’s tryst with Max, she’d probably spring into action right away

Her reputation is indeed tarnished.” 

Spencer, I don’t mean to pry. I’ve just returned to the States and was dealing with the signings with Book recently, so I’m naturally concerned about Dorsey International’s affairs. We’re essentially family now, and I thought I’d ask. If the person who took your place is truly problematic, I could have a word with Max on your behalf.” 

Chapter 419 

In saying this, Alivia conveyed two things

First, that she was close enough to Max to influence highlevel decisions at Dorsey International

Second, she was unaware of the intimate connection between Max and the person who replaced Spencer, portraying herself as innocent and even pitiable

Spencer had been scoffing internally, knowing her words couldn’t hold a candle to Brielle’s influence, but Alivia’s apparent concern for him softened his scorn. He even thought Alivia, despite her status, was just a naïve little woman, a pitiable fool. Max had passed over someone like her for Brielle, which seemed preposterous to Spencer

He sighed, offering a word of advice, The woman who took my place was once my fiancée, Brielle, and her relationship with Uncle Max iscomplicated. You might want to investigate further. Besides, why not ask Uncle Max directly about his marriage plans?” 

Complicated? What do you mean? Max has always been above reproach. He wouldn’t fool around. And he’s already made it clear he intends to marry me.”
