Master of his heart

Chapter 247
Patrick couldn't contain himself as he interjected from the sidelines.
“Don't you worry, Ms. Brielle. Mr. Dorsey has always been cautious. Over the
years, plenty have tried to take a crack at him, but none have succeeded. Even
his car is like something out of a presidential motorcade, bulletproof and all. Plus,
at the Premier Palace, there's a whole contingent of bodyguards — most of them
are ex-military. And let's not forget, Mr. Dorsey himself, he’s also...
He was cut off by a glance from Max. Patrick realized he’d spoken out of turn and
promptly shut his mouth, signaling the chef to whip up something in the kitchen.
Max, fiddling with the cufflinks at his wrist, said, “I'm heading to the office. You
stay home and rest.” His tone was that of a husband giving a gentle order to his
wife before leaving the house. Brielle, worn out from the previous night's ordeal,
had little energy to spare. With Max's command issued, she settled back onto the
couch.
Patrick hastily briefed the chef before following Max out, resuming his role as
chauffeur.
Once they had left, Brielle slowly opened her eyes. She knew that sitting idly by
wasn’t going to cut it if she wanted to stand up to Ryan. And she didn’t want to
rely on Max for everything — it was time she tried figuring out a plan on her own.
Her thoughts turned to Spencer. While reaching out to Spencer was akin to
inviting bad luck, she reasoned that the Dorsey family had used her for years, so
why couldn't she use Spencer just this once?
She removed Spencer’s number from the blacklist. After a moment's hesitation,
she dialed his number.
Spencer didn’t pick up; he was at the Haywood estate. After debating for a long
time, he decided to come over to see Lillian, but the thought of Lillian entangled
with someone like Connor made it impossible for Spencer to look at her now. The
once cute and obedient face now seemed utterly disagreeable to him.
What was harder for Spencer to swallow was the fact that he had belittled Brielle
for a woman like Lillian.
When Brielle’s call came through, it took him by surprise. On the other side,
Lillian’s face was streaked with tears, her hands tentatively clutching at his
sleeve, her eyes filled with a pitiable plea. “Spencer, that night, it was all Brielle’s
doing. How else could I have ended up with someone like Connor? You've
always been on my side. You'll understand me this time, right?”
Lillian’s eyes brimmed with venom. With no progress from Max, she had no
choice but to fall back on Spencer.
But faced with her helplessness, Spencer took a few steps back, his gaze
avoiding hers, “I'll go

Her face darkened in an instant but she maintained a facade. “Sure, I could use a
drink.”

“Of course I do.”
Spencer sat down, attempting to kiss her cheek but the image of Connor made
his stomach churn, and he recoiled. “I've got something to attend to tonight, but
I'll make time to see your later. I should get going now.”
