Chapter 98

Andrew’s world seemed to momentarily shatter as he took a deep drag of his cigarette,

annoyance edging his voice, “Max, you’re just gonna let her reel you in like that?”

Brielle gasped for air, freed from his grip. It wasn’t her seducing Max at this point; he had

been the one to lean in for the kiss.

Talk about a misunderstanding.

Max’s fingers grazed her cheek as he reached for his phone. As he was about to speak,

Brielle’s lips silenced him again. If Andrew was accusing her of seduction, she might as

well own up to it.

When the kiss finally broke, she noticed the call was still connected and curiously asked,

“Mr. Clements, you haven’t hung up yet??”

Andrew was lighting his third cigarette, snorting coldly, “I just wanted to see how

shameless you could be.”

Brielle’s lips twitched, finding humor in the situation. Was this tarnishing Max’s reputation?

She cleared her throat, taking the phone, “I had no intention of performing for anyone

over the phone, Mr. Clements. Perhaps you should focus on how you’ll follow through on

your promises.”

A dangerous glint flashed in Andrew’s eyes as he growled, “Nobody dares to threaten me

like this.”

His words had barely faded when Max intervened, “Stop scaring her all the time.”

Andrew paused, unintentionally dampening his imposing aura, but quickly got irritated

again, “Fine, I’m not scaring her. She seems bold enough to me.”

Brielle felt her ears burn. Max’s sudden interjection had left her mind

Andrew’s voice continued in the background, but Brielle couldnt make out his words–it was

probably something about making those two apologize again.

His fingers, cool to the touch, plucked the phone from her heated calm Brielle felt as if he

had stripped away her warmth as well.

Max always seemed in control, eager one second and indifferent the next, as if he could

walk away at any moment, without a care in the world.

Brielle lowered her eyes and when she looked up again, a smile was plastered on her face.

“I suppose Mr. Dorsey won’t object to me firing Emily?

“Right, I’ll send it over in a bit.”

She followed him into the living room where Patrick was already waiting, a crisp new suit

jacket in his hands. Patrick quickly averted his gaze when they emerged together.

Max took the jacket from Patrick and went to change.

Brielle just stood there, surprisingly unsure of what to say, and it wasn’t

She hobbled to the door on her crutches, seeing Max fitting his earpiece, ready for his

meeting. She should be content. Despite his busy schedule, he still took the time to

indulge her.

The thought struck her, and she froze. What was this?

Falling for him seemed to mean waiting hopelessly, nailed in place, full of hope and

anxiety, like a forgotten parcel in some corner of a train

station.

She couldn’t allow herself to be so vulnerable. If he couldn’t give her those three words,

she wouldn’t ask as well.
