Master of his heart

Chapter 138

Andrew rubbed his temples, his gaze softening. “There’s no need for formalities

between us. If you don’t want Sophia to apologize, I'll let it slide. Thirty million is

nothing to fret over.”

Tessa was well aware that thirty million was merely pocket change for him, but

the thought of Brielle getting such a windfall made her uneasy. “It's Sophia's

mistake, but you shouldn't let others take advantage like that.”

She was testing the waters to gauge Andrew's feelings toward Brielle. Something

seemned off. and she wondered if it was because of a few words Sophia had

said in his presence. Tessa was growing restless. Any other woman who dared

speak to Andrew like this wouldn't live to see another day, yet Brielle was not

only spared but also walked away with a thirty million dollar check.

“Drop it with her, Tessa. You need to focus on getting better.”

Andrew couldn't possibly reveal Brielle’s connection to Max. If Michael found out,

Brielle would have to vanish from Beaconsfield in a heartbeat.

“Alright, I'll drop it.”

Tessa was sharp, not the type to beat a dead horse. She probed into the Hatfield

family’s stance on Emily and pondered making them target Brielle. Much to her

surprise, the Hatfields hadn't lifted a finger to bail out Emily, who remained

behind bars.

When Tessa learned that the Hatfields planned to send Emily abroad for studies—

a polite euphemism for exile, a common practice among the elite—she was even

more unsettled. Was it all because of Brielle? Who exactly was backing Brielle?

Tessa’s lips pressed into a thin line, realizing it was time for some serious

digging.

Unbeknownst to Brielle, she had caught Tessa’s attention. She and Tiffany were

already in the car. Tiffany was in high spirits that evening, her smile never leaving

her face. At a red light, she tapped the steering wheel, “Brielle, I really owe you

one. My birthdays are usually such downers, but today was a blast from start to

finish. If anything like this comes up again, hit me up on WhatsApp, okay?”

She whipped out her phone.

After they exchanged contacts, Tiffany saw the familiar profile picture and

chuckled. “Alivial was all over the place, asking who had the snowflake avatar. I

had a hunch it was you, and look.

at that. I was right.”

“Alivia?” Brielle was puzzled. How did her avatar catch Alivia's eye?

“Yeah, she asked around in the group chat. Probably grilled the whole social

circle, but no one fessed up.”

the flick of a finger.”

Having arrived in Beaconsfield at the tender age of ten, Brielle was out of the

loop on social intricacies, always an outsider. “How tough are we talking?”

Tiffany had taken a liking to Brielle and didn’t want her to be at a disadvantage,

so she couldn't help but break it down for her.
