Chapter 707
As Andrew entered the room, he was immediately engulfed in Aubree’s essence. The drug–inducing calm he’d managed to wrestle into submission roared to life, his blood coursing with a fierce heat. He ripped off his jacket and shucked his shirt, making a beeline for the bathroom.
Aubree was on set, still engrossed in her role, oblivious to the fact that she’d left her phone behind.
The set was a whirlwind of activity; everyone was fueled by the buzz from yesterday’s headlines.
John was his usual stoic self, but it was clear he felt lighter today. In his downtime, he was deep–diving into the works of other directors, keen on honing his craft.
Aubree was caught up in the fervor, and her spirits lifted.
As they wrapped up the morning’s scenes, John announced they were heading to Stellar Stage Entertainment for some location shots.
The script might tell a story of the everyman, but a few scenes demanded the backdrop of a bustling office building, and Stellar Stage Entertainment was just the ticket.
Aubree’s visit there would inevitably lead her to Brielle.
Brielle had rolled into work just after noon, still reeling from a night of indulgence with Max and feeling the after–effects. It wasn’t until sunlight flooded her room that she managed to rise.
The news had her seeing red, but Max, ever clumsy with words, simply assured her Andrew would regret his actions and urged her not to be upset.
Duties called, and they parted ways. Brielle longed for more time with Max, but with Stellar Stage Entertainment still settling from recent upheaval, she was needed to steady the ship.
Max had driven her in, stealing a few tender moments in the car before she staggered out on wobbly legs, only to stumble upon the film crew’s arrival.
Brielle tugged at her collar, trying to cover up, but it was too late – Aubree had seen everything.
Aubree had noticed the lovebites on Brielle before but was still puzzled. “Bri, has Mr. Dorsey never laid eyes on a woman before?”
Brielle, flushed and wide–eyed with kiss–bruised lips, was a sight that easily fueled gossip.
Aubree had always known Brielle was stunning, so seeing her like this elicited an involuntary tsk. “You might want to check yourself in the mirror.”
Brielle was embarrassed, knowing she couldn’t resist Max. She had simply closed her eyes as his face neared hers in the car, not bothering to wonder what Patrick in the front seat might think.
“You’re the boss now, Bri. Keep up appearances. John might come looking for you later. Let’s go to your office.”
Aubree led her to the private elevator that whisked them to the executive floor.
After freshening up, Brielle’s cheeks cooled down. She eyed Aubree, curious if the day’s news had affected
her.
“Bri, I’ve wrapped my scenes for today. Ricardo and the others are up next. I want to go somewhere.”
