Master of his heart

Chapter 250
On the other end of the line, Brielle was unaware of his turmoil. Worried that
Spencer, who had fallen asleep, might wake up, she inquired, “Anything else, Mr.
Dorsey?” she asked, implying that if there was nothing more, they could end the
call.
Max cradled the glass of whiskey in his hands, feeling waves of darkness
threaten his vision. He had never experienced such a physical response before,
and his emotions ebbed and flowed with the tide. He was worried that if he said a
few more words, he wouldn't be able to resist asking about other things. Upon
hearing her question, he fought against the dizzying sensation and abruptly hung
up.
Brielle, hearing the disconnect tone, was slightly puzzled, but she had more
pressing matters to attend to, like making sure Spencer remained securely tied
up. She wound the rope around him a few more times, ensuring that even in a
lucid state, he’d be unable to break free.
After securing Spencer, she marched into the bathroom and filled a basin with
water, splashing it over his head in a sudden deluge.
Spencer came to, groggy and disoriented, and realizing he was bound, panic set
in. “Brielle. what on earth are you doing?”
A sly smile crept across her face. “Come on. You can’t possibly think that I came
to the hotel because I really wanted to sleep with you.”
Spencer's face darkened, his pride hurt as he tested his bonds, finally exploding
in anger. “What are you trying to pull? If you're trying to win me back, this isn’t the
way. Just behave, and I can still take you back.”
“Slap!”
Brielle slapped him right across the face. “Shut your mouth!”
Spencer turned his head in shock, unable to believe what had just happened. It
was only when the delayed pain registered that he looked back at Brielle, his
eyes filled with disbelief. Brielle had wanted to give him that slap ever since the
Hatfield family banquet, and now she finally had her chance. “Keep quiet, and
you might avoid a few more slaps,” she warned.
Spencer’s eyes welled up with a sense of hurt, as almost all the humiliations he
had experienced from childhood to adulthood came from Brielle.
Brielle snatched up his phone, found Ryan’s number, and shot a video of
Spencer in his trussed-up state, sending it directly to Ryan. After sending the
video, she stuffed a cloth into Spencer's mouth and turned off his phone.
She knew that patience was key when dealing with hot soup—you can't rush it,
and the same went for dealing with Ryan.
Meanwhile, Max, after ending the call, rubbed his throbbing temples. Kenzo
noticed his friend's distress and pushed a drink towards him. “Waiting for Andrew
has got you on edge, huh?”

Kenzo, who had just gotten off the phone with Andrew, informing him they were
taking Max to the hospital was taken aback by the question.
What was loving someone? In their circle, it was a question seldom asked, a
question both superficial and profound. Some might never find out in their
lifetime.
“Perhaps it’s like Andrew with Tessa, with no principles involved?”
Max rubbed his forehead, fighting the pain. “Is that so? Then I guess what I feel
isn't love.”

Unbeknownst to Max, Brielle had switched out the contents of the medicine
bottle. From his perspective, she had poisoned him. And now, his body was
indeed rebelling.
Even with the knowledge of her harming him, when he saw her about to sip the
porridge, he couldn't’ bring himself to stop her. So this wasn't love after all.
