Master of his heart

Chapter 177
The reporter nodded with satisfaction, pulling out his smartphone to display his
account.
A hefty sum of ten thousand dollars swiftly landed in his account. He dove into a
few online forums and, true to his word, shared the photos far and wide.
Meanwhile, Spencer sat numbly in his car, staring blankly at the palm of his hand
where he could still feel the lingering warmth of Brielle’s touch.
Over the years, Spencer and Brielle hadn’t been close. There were no hugs, no
kisses, none of the usual couple's intimacies had passed between them.
When he had pinned her down earlier, he was struck by the vividness of her
expression.
But the thought of her showing that face to other men made Spencer’s stomach
tun.
Brielle’s performance at the banquet embarrassed him greatly, and he was
determined to retaliate. That was why he deliberately orchestrated this scene.
Brielle’s eagerness to sever ties only made Spencer more determined to keep
her entangled in his life.
As for Lillian, a little sweet-talk would smooth things over.
His mother was right: Lillian’s reputation was tarnished, and his grandfather
wouldn't allow him to be entangled with a woman of her standing. He just couldn't
let her go.
If he could keep Lillian, why couldn't he do the same for Brielle?
With Brielle’s history with men, what was one more to her? And after all these
years without any real intimacy between them, he felt owed.
He was sure Brielle would come crawling back to him in tears.
Back at her apartment, Brielle bolted her door with shaking hands, her head
pounding with rage and distress.
She hadn’t eaten much at the banquet last night and had missed breakfast this
morning. Spencer’s outburst left her stomach in knots, and she rushed to the
bathroom.
All she could bring up was bile, and cold sweat broke out across her forehead.
She stumbled back to the couch, the room spinning before her eyes.
She felt like she was paying for some past-life debt to Spencer.
Clutching her phone, she tried to dial for an ambulance, but her vision blurred,
and her hands shook too much to see whom she was calling. Overcome with
pain, she passed out.
The Dorsey family home was bustling with excitement. Michael and Jose had
