Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493 

The buzz of last night’s festivities had faded, and now the stark light of reality was shining through the blinds. Brielle was pulled from her reverie by the jingle of a phone. It was Max’s phone

Michael had seemed tightlipped last night, deftly steering the conversation away from the elephant in the room, but Brielle knew that his silence didn’t mean approval of their relationship

What Michael would do next was anyone’s guess

The phone lit up, and Max pressed the answer button, calling out, What’s up, Kenzo?” 

Surprisingly, it wasn’t Michael on the other end of the line, but Kenzo

Brielle couldn’t help but marvel at how the old fox was still full of tricks. Michael was playing the long game. After the mess of last night, it was unsettling how Michael had yet to call and confront them. The calmer the sea, the more Brielle feared the storm lurking beneath

Kenzo’s call was obviously about the previous night’s drama. He had used drunkenness as an excuse to keep the situation from boiling over, but everyone who was there knew that Alivia wasn’t drunk, and Max had flatout rejected her

Kenzo’s tone carried no hint of blame, remaining as soothing as ever. Max, are you still with Brielle?” 

Yeah.” 

My grandpa’s bound to hear about this soon. He’s always hoped for a union between our families. I’ll try to talk to him. Is this your final decision, Max?” 

Kenzo, could you handle things with the Barnes family? Thanks.” 

No more words were needed. Kenzo understood Max’s choice. A deep shadow passed through his eyes, followed by a light smile. Sure.” 

After hanging up, Kenzo surveyed the chaos in the room

Alivia was buried under the covers, not a single strand of her hair in sight. The room was a battleground of shattered objects, with traces of blood amidst the wreckage. Shards of mirror were scattered across the floor, and even the plush slippers were spattered with drops of red

Alivia, come on out and have something to eat,Kenzo coaxed as he nudged her

She didn’t respond. This was the first time in her life that she felt so out of control, wishing she could destroy everything. Every memory of last night’s events made her heart ache until she could hardly breathe. Her body felt crushed, her soul trembling

She had thought she was watching Brielle’s downfall, only to become the butt of the joke herself. Was she still held in any esteem in Max’s eyes

Her eyelashes fluttered fiercely, her voice hoarse. Kenzo, I’m not hungry.” 

You’re just going to lie there? You heard the call. Max has chosen Brielle and plans to stick with her. Do you think he’ll care about you if you keep degrading yourself like this?”
