Chapter 248
The moment he set foot out the door, Lillian, decked out in her best spy gear,
trailed behind him like a shadow.
Meanwhile, Brielle hadn't yet told Spencer where to meet, opting instead to call
and gauge his level of suspicion. Finding that Spencer wasn’t on guard against
her, she pondered for a moment before setting the rendezvous at the upscale
Dorsey International Hotel for that evening. She had stayed there before; the
security was tight, and she knew it was safe.
Brielle rested until the afternoon and, before heading to the hotel, she made a
quick stop at the pharmacy to pick up some sleeping pills.
Having been engaged to Spencer for so many years, Brielle was well acquainted
with his family. She knew how his father, Ryan, played the field, but when it came
to his son, he was utterly devoted-after all, Spencer was his only child.
Otherwise, with his ways, he would have dismissed Faith a long time ago.
After all, he was counting on his sole heir to secure a larger share of the family
fortune from the old man. The importance of Spencer in the grand scheme of
things was crystal clear.
With the sleeping pills in her purse, Brielle set out for the hotel.
What Brielle didn’t know was that Lillian had managed to contact Tessa and
obtained Max's phone number from her.
Lillian had only intended to try her luck and was surprised when Tessa provided
the number without hesitation. A sly smile curled the corners of Lillian’s mouth as
she sent an anonymous text to Max: [Tonight, Brielle and Spencer will meet at
the hotel under the Dorsey International banner.]
Max was still at the office working late when he received the message. He didn’t
respond but didn’t block the number either, knowing the sender would probably
continue to send more
information.
After having a bowl of soup at Brielle’s place during the day, he hadn't called a
doctor to check on him, but he could feel that something was off. Normally,
working overtime wouldn’t faze him, but today, his vision had started to blur since
the afternoon.
Max shook his head, trying to clear it, and powered through the last of the
paperwork. Patrick entered his office and, noting his pale complexion, couldnt
help but ask, “Sir, are you feeling alright?”
Max, rubbing his temples, replied with a hoarse voice. “Not so good.”
Patrick was about to call a private doctor, but Max waved him off. “It's nothing
serious, no need for a doctor.”
“But your complexion...”
“I said it's fine.

Those two had become too estranged due to the Rowland family’s affairs, so
Kenzo organized tonight's gathering in the hope that the two could reconcile their

Max got up, tiredly rubbing his forehead. “Then let's go.”
