Chapter 429
Spencer’s lip curled into a smirk. “I’ve got someone watching Brielle, and they found a used pregnancy test in the trash–double lines.”
Alivia’s mind buzzed, her grip on her phone nearly slipping. Brielle was pregnant–the very thing Alivia had dreaded most was happening!
“But Uncle Max is still in the dark, Ms. Alivia. I don’t want that kid to be born. I’m hoping you can help me out here.”
Alivia had connections, the kind that could take care of messes perfectly. Spencer didn’t care whether he faced backlash from Brielle or the rest of the Dorseys later. He just couldn’t stand the thought of Brielle having another man’s child! The very idea of that child’s existence was torture to him!
Hearing this, Alivia felt a laugh bubbling up. Brielle was such a fool. She had the perfect opportunity to tell Max about the pregnancy. Knowing him, he would have shouted it from the rooftops, announcing their wedding to the world. But Brielle chose to hide it, an utterly foolish move! She was practically handing over the chance to drive a wedge between her and Max!
After a brief moment of panic, Alivia’s eyes regained their cool composure, not forgetting to maintain her carefully curated persona. “Spencer, are you sure about this? After all, that’s
Max’s first child. If he finds out…”
“I’ll take full responsibility for the consequences. He’s not going to kill me.” Michael would never want to see such a thing happen anyway.
That was exactly what Alivia needed to hear. Orchestrating such a scheme was simple for her, but she worried about being exposed, revealing her true face to Max himself. She had to hide her intentions well, to drive Brielle out of Beaconsfield.
“Ms. Alivia, it sounds like you’ve got a plan.”
The corners of Alivia’s mouth turned up slightly. She now understood Brielle’s hesitations. It was because Brielle was of low status, and since Max’s feelings weren’t deep enough yet, Brielle couldn’t be sure he would accept the child. If other members of the Dorsey family found
out, what would become of the child?
The Dorseys wouldn’t tolerate any illegitimate offspring. Only someone with Alivia’s background would be fit to bear Max’s children.
“I do have an idea, but I’m hesitant. Spencer, are we doing the right thing?”
In Spencer’s eyes, Alivia was a paragon of virtue, a blank slate when it came to love. Plotting something like this must’ve been difficult for her. “Ms. Alivia, you’ve waited for Uncle Max for years. Can you really stand by and watch him marry another woman? If you work with me, it’s a win–win. You get Uncle Max, I get rid of Brielle, and everyone’s happy.”
A hint of sarcasm flickered in Alivia’s eyes. She couldn’t fathom what potion Brielle had given

Spencer. Even with Brielle pregnant, he couldn’t let go. “If that’s the case, then alright. I do have a plan in mind, but I’ll need your cooperation.”
Spencer’s eyes were full of glee as he ended the call and rubbed his eyes. He had to do this. If blame was due, it was Brielle’s for getting pregnant.
