Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 901

Hearing that Max was about to face jail time, Antonio could barely contain his excitement.

"Grandpa, are you absolutely sure about this?"

Michael picked a black piece from the chessboard, his face a blank canvas.

With a flick, he tossed it into the trash. "He's led the Dorsey family well over the years, only to be undone by a woman. I need him to understand that without the Dorsey family, he's nothing. Maybe even Brielle will leave him. I'll make sure he regrets it."

Michael was fuming. His greatest creation was ruined, turned into a worthless pawn. And since Max wouldn't listen to him anymore, Michael was ready to play dirty.

No more of that drug for Max. He wanted to see what kind of mess Max would become without it next month.

Or did Max think he could fix everything within a month?

Impossible. Even if he were a genius, without the Dorsey family, he'd be helpless in Beaconsfield.

With that realization, Michael's mind settled, and he focused back on the game.

"Ashton, when Max falls, I'll transfer the shares to you, but you'll need to sign an agreement with me."

To be blunt, everyone was just a tool to him; he trusted no one.

Once the agreement was signed, Michael could reclaim Dorsey International whenever he wanted, just like he was using Max as a tool now.

Before he died, he was determined to see Dorsey International at its peak.

And after he passed, his will would ensure that all of Max's shares went to his true heirs, reducing Max to a mere servant for the Dorsey family. That was Michael's grand plan.

If it hadn't been for Brielle throwing a wrench in his plans, Michael's will would have surfaced a decade later, transferring all of Dorsey International's shares to the most promising Dorsey family member, as chosen by the law firm he had already appointed.

Max's true identity would be revealed then, and he'd lose everything related to the Dorsey family.
