Master of his heart

Chapter 439
After hanging up the phone, Spencer flashed his homeowner's ID to the
gatekeeper and was naturally granted entry.
When he reached Brielle’s location, he felt an unexpected surge of excitement.
Sydney welcomed him in, and Spencer strode past her into the house.
There, Brielle lay on the couch, sleeping quietly but looking terribly under the
weather. Spencer's brow furrowed in concern. The medication should have only
put her into a deep sleep without harming her. Yet, she appeared so frail.
He glanced at Sydney, who hurried to explain. “Didn't I tell you? Ms. Haywood
wasn't feeling well. When [ first came in, I noticed she looked quite pale.”
Spencer snorted dismissively, certain that Sydney wouldn’t dare harm Brielle. He
bent down, about to scoop Brielle into his arms, when her phone on the coffee
table rang and caught his attention — it was Max calling.
Sydney also noticed and was surprised. She knew Max was the president of
Dorsey International, but why had Brielle saved his contact simply as “Max?’
Others at Dorsey International would've respectfully listed him as “Mr. Dorsey.”
A first-name basis suggested either equal standing or a close relationship.
Sydney dismissed the former, but could the latter be possible?
Considering Brielle was Spencer's ex—fiancée, her knowing Max on a personal
level wasn't odd. Brielle sure knew how to elevate her status, going so far as to
save just his first name.
Spencer's heart nearly stopped at the sight of the flashing screen. He could not
answer the call but worried that ignoring it might raise suspicion. He took Brielle’s
phone, using her fingertip to unlock it.
The phone unlocked smoothly, but Spencer couldn’t bring himself to press the
answer button. Instead, he texted Max. [I need a few hours of sleep.]
Max sat in the Dorsey International penthouse, his brow furrowing upon reading
the message. Even though she wanted to sleep, there was no need for her to
disconnect his call.
He'd worked through the night at Dorsey International, troubled by something the
evening before. In the morning, he'd checked his phone to find no messages or
missed calls. Brielle sure could keep her cool.
In the end, he compromised and reached out first, only to have the call
disconnected.
Was she angry? Shouldn't he be the one upset?
Amused and helpless, he texted back. [Rest well. Call me when you wake up.]
Spencer breathed a sigh of relief at the response and picked up Brielle, preparing
to leave.

Sydney hesitated, fearful of lying to the president. “Mr. Spencer, I-*
“Just do as I say. You understand?! I'll give you a million if you pull it off.”
Spencer's voice was light, as if a million dollars was merely a frivolous sum.
Sydney gave in, though nervous.
“If he doesn’t ask, don’t say a word. Keep me posted on his whereabouts. Delay
him if he tries to leave, got it?”
She nodded, willing to risk it for the money. In the worst case, she'd quit Dorsey
International once she had enough.
Spencer didn’t linger. Carrying Brielle, he descended the stairs. To avoid drawing
attention at the exit, he covered Brielle with his suit jacket, making it difficult for
the guards to recognize
her.
