Chapter 319

Brielle’s steps halted and she was utterly confused by what Patrick was trying to
say. Her brows knitted together in a frown.

Patrick made a welcoming gesture with his hand. Having received so much help
from Patrick. Brielle felt she couldn't put him in a tight spot and reluctantly
nodded.

Entering Max's office, she saw him seated behind his desk, leaning back in his
chair with his eyes closed as if asleep. His scent was always subtle, yet Brielle
couldn’t help but recall the steamy nights they'd spent tangled in the sheets. Only
then did his gaze burn hot, as if searing. into her soul.

“Mr. Dorsey.” She called out, noting Max slowly open his eyes.

A flicker of puzzlement, then a spark of recognition crossed his face at the sight
of her.

“What did you need to see me about, Mr. Dorsey?”

Max hadn’t summoned her, but he guessed Patrick might've been overstepping.
As they exchanged glances, Brielle pieced it together, feeling a wash of
embarrassment. “If there’s nothing else, then I'll just-"

Before she could finish. Max cut in, “I have a business trip tomorrow. I'm heading
to Oakwood Town.”

Brielle froze, unsure why her boss would need to inform her of his travel plans.
After a brief silence, she managed to say, “Oh, well, safe travels, Mr. Dorsey?”
Realizing her response, she added, “But, a trip like that surely doesn’t require
you to personally grace the place, does it? Even if it's to scout for materials or to
oversee a new construction, that's usually a task for the business department to
liaise with the local government.”

“Hmm, I've heard the Radiant Light Church there is quite famous.”

So, he was going to visit a church? For what?

It probably had nothing to do with her anyway.

Her eyes dropped, and she was about to excuse herself when he suddenly
asked. “Would your like to join me?” After beating around the bush, he finally laid
out the invitation.

The office fell silent as Brielle pondered whether this trip was a ruse or a genuine
offer. potentially her last chance to spend time with Max.

She smiled as she looked up with composed grace. “Sure, I'll go home and start
packing.”

Max grunted in approval; his satisfaction was apparent as he probably deduced
that she would no longer be dining with Noah at some couples’ restaurant.
Once outside Max's office, Brielle felt like she was floating on air. What was
Max's angle?

money was no object.

Church with Max

tomorrow.”
