Chapter 345
Spencer knew Brielle wouldn't respond, just as she hadn't when he'd sent a
similar message earlier that morning on his way to the temporary housing unit.
Every time he stepped into one of those units, he felt as if he was on the brink of
uncovering the truth.
His blood boiled with both excitement and resentment.
If it was true.
If it was true, he'd make damn sure to pay back in spades!
Only a handful of families had been relocated to this particular floor from the
building that had burned. Standing in front of one of the doors, Spencer pulled
out the photograph he’d come prepared with..
“Excuse me, had you seen this man around the apartment complex before the
fire?” he asked, showing the woman a sneakily snapped picture of Max.
The angle wasn't great, but Max's face was still flawlessly handsome.
The woman, in her thirties, shook her head. “No, haven't seen him.
Spencer got a bit frantic, his voice rising unintentionally. “Could you please think
again?”
The woman chuckled, “Honey, I really haven't. If I'd seen a face like that, trust
me, I wouldn't forget it. When you pulled out that photo, I thought he was a movie
star or something. Nope, movie stars don’t even come close to this guy.”
Spencer's face darkened, feeling a pang of humiliation. If Brielle’s beauty could
spark envy among women, Max's looks were enough to make any man insecure.
And what pissed Spencer off the most was that looks were the least impressive
of Max's many attributes.
Spencer's clenched hand trembled with rage, as he snatched back the photo and
knocked on another door, but after nearly canvassing the entire floor, no one had
seen Max's face. He'd been to countless places over the past few days, and this
was the last stop.
The torched apartment complex had housed a diverse group of residents and
was old and rundown, with hardly any places to hide. If Max had visited, his
presence would have certainly drawn attention.
But no one had seen him!
Was his gut feeling wrong?
This realization brought a sense of relief to Spencer, but with it, his eyes
reddened.
Thank goodness Brielle had the sense not to get involved with Max. The mere
thought made him feel queasy.
His fiancée rolling in the hay with his uncle — how could that not be sickening?

Chapter 345
Spencer exhaled deeply.
Having checked the last few places, it seemed pointless to continue the
investigation. He chuckled at his own paranoia. How could he have suspected
Max of getting involved with Brielle? Sure, Brielle had some talents, but after all
Max had been through, why would he settle for her?
Max did admire Brielle, but that was because she truly had the chops, right?
Spencer breathed a sigh of relief and shot Brielle another message. [Lucky, you
played it smart.]
Brielle was lounging on the couch when she received the text.
Patrick’s words had resonated with her; she hadn't visited Kenzo but had sent
some fruit and flowers through Tiffanie, choosing to rest at home instead.

Scrolling down, she noticed an email from the HR department. It was about
Spencer’s employment approval.
Brielle thought she had misread. Did Spencer's employment really need
approval? She dialed the HR director.
The HR director sat upright in his Dorsey Tower office the moment he saw
Brielle’s incoming call, mustering all his attention. “Ms. Brielle, hello.”
Brielle hadn’t worked directly with the director but was familiar with the office
gossip that he was a bit difficult. Yet, he seemed almost overly gentle with her.

“Ms. Haywood, are you referring to Spencer’s employment application? As per
the rules, you also have the right to vote.”
Brielle found it amusing. It hadn't been long since Spencer had wanted her out,
and now, his employment was subject to her vote. What skills did Spencer have?
She pondered without bias but couldn't think of any noteworthy talent except,
perhaps, his arrogance.
“So, I can cast a dissenting vote?”
“Absolutely.”
