Chapter 326
Michael arched an eyebrow with a hint of interest. “Oh? You've finally taken the
initiative, Spencer. Who's the girl?”
Spencer glanced at Max, but Max was unfazed, casually sipping the coffee a
servant had handed him. Spencer felt a tightness in his chest, as if he was being
dismissed. “You know her. it's Brielle. I wronged her in the past, but I've turned
over a new leaf, and I'm ready to make things work with her.”
The mention of Brielle made Michael's expression darken. He had heard that
name more than once, and the thought of both his son and grandson entangled
with such a woman made the last shred of fondness he had for her vanish into
thin air.
Women like her were trouble, and trouble, as far as he was concerned, didn't
deserve to thrive.
“Spencer, you were once engaged to her, and that engagement was broken off.
Now you're talking about getting back together with her. If word gets out, people
will laugh at how lightly you treat marriage. Besides, Brielle has caused quite a
stir in Beaconsfield; her reputation is in tatters. How can you expect a woman like
her to step through the Dorsey family threshold?”
Back in the day, Victoria managed to secure Everett by her side with her theatrics
and threats, and that was an exception Michael had reluctantly made—after all,
Everett was a world-renowned pianist.
But Brielle? What was she? She wasn’t world-renowned, and her modest fame
stemmed from nothing more than scandals involving the Haywood family.
Michael had little respect for Everett back then, and even less for Brielle now.
“Let's drop this
matter.”
“Grandfather, but I-”
Seeing Michael's face turn sour, Faith, who sat among the others, quickly spoke
up. “Spencer, your grandfather's right. Brielle doesn’t even know who her parents
are. She's definitely not Dorsey material. If you're so eager to marry, I can find
you a suitable young lady from one of the other distinguished families in
Beaconsfield.”
As soon as she finished, Max took a leisurely sip of his coffee. “Spencer's
intentions commendable. In that case, I'll leave this task to you, Faith.”

This move effectively blocked any chance of Spencer and Brielle reuniting.
Was a man like Spencer, known for his frivolous pursuits, worthy of Brielle?
Max's face was impassive, and his fingers tightened imperceptibly. It was better
to nip this in the bud.

Spencer felt his blood boil. To him, Max was an insurmountable peak, and his
frost was untouched even by the blazing sun.
Spencer’s eyelashes drooped, but even then, he would not allow Max to be with
Brielle. This dusty gem was his discovery: why should he lose his right to
possess it?
Resentment flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing more. His mind was already
hatching. plans.
Michael sighed, glancing at the darkening sky. “It's getting late. You've all been
here a while: go on home.”
The guests slowly rose to leave. Max was the last to go. Just as he turned the
corner, he heard footsteps and Spencer's voice. “Uncle Max.”
Max's face showed a flicker of impatience, but Spencer was still family, so he
composed himself. What is it?”
