Chapter 471
Aubree’s eyes flickered in disbelief as she gazed at Alivia. It was only now that
she realized. beneath Alivia’s gentle facade lurked a darkness so vile it almost
made her gag.
Alivia saw no reason to hide her true self in front of Brielle’s friends. To her, their
fear was an advantage. She let out a soft chuckle, delicately straightening
Aubree’s collar. “Poor Briette’s probably been tossed around like a rag doll by
now. Even if she gets out, Max won't give her a second glance. Why else would
he ignore your calls? He finds it repulsive. Miss Aubree, I guess I'll be heading up
then.”
Rooted to the spot, Aubree heard Alivia’s smug voice trailing off. “Even if you
wanted to go see her. I doubt you could. Michael has used the Dorsey family’s
influence to seal that place tight. Not even a fly could get in. Such a pity.”
That bitch!
Aubree trembled with rage, yet felt a profound sense of powerlessness.
She had grown up in this world and knew too well the sway Alivia held among the
elite. If Alivial wanted to make Brielle’s life miserable, she could do it with a snap
of her fingers.
Adding the Dorsey family into the mix, and Max no longer caring about Brielle,
who was there to save her friend?
Desperate and furious, Aubree stormed out of Dorsey Tower, tears streaming
down her face.
Aubree rarely cried, not even when Andrew had tormented her to the brink of
death. She was a rose with thorns, while Brielle was a verdant leaf touched by
frost. Yet, both had been unlucky in love.
Feeling helpless, Aubree stood on the sidewalk, wiping away her tears with a
trembling hand. A sleek sports car pulled up in front of her, and the window rolled
down to reveal Dustin's face.
Dustin still had that stunning look — eyes as charming as a spring breeze, a smile
brimming with warmth. “Aren’t you Andrew's little sister? What's got you crying on
the sidewalk, lost your way?”
Ignoring his teasing. Aubree focused on the face that seemed like a savior,
looking more. handsome than ever. Quickly wiping her eyes, she tapped on the
door. “Mr. Lynch.”
Dustin wasn’t one to leave a lady crying on the street. He unlocked the car, and
Aubree climbed in, sniffling. “I always knew you were one of the good ones, Mr.
Lynch. Bri’s blind for not seeing it.”
Dustin chuckled, pulling out a few tissues and handing them to her. “Dry those
tears. Are you looking for your brother?”
The car started moving. Dustin’s hands were steady on the wheel, his posture a
mix of composure and casual ease.

“That jerk Max is ditching Bri.” She said it deliberately, aiming to gauge Dustin's
reaction. If he cared for Brielle, then he might just be the help sent from above.
“Whoal”
The car stopped abruptly, Dustin turned, his face a picture of shock — definitely
not feigned. “Has Max gone blind? He's really giving up on little Bri?”
Aubree’s eyes welled up again. “Yeah, Alivia has even arranged for Bri to be
tormented in jail. The Dorsey family is putting pressure on them so no one can
visit. I'm so worried about Bri.”
“Which jail?”
“The one down on South Road.”
Aubree answered quickly, watching as Dustin picked up his phone, dialing a
number without hesitation.
“Mr. King, it's me, Dustin.”
“Dustin? When you call, it's rarely good news. What do you need this time?”

“Don't tease me, kid. If you need to go, go now.”
Dustin grinned, flooring the accelerator, his hand firmly on the wheel.
Thanks. And could you find out why the Riddle family’s getting involved?”
“Just don’t forget my wine.”
Dustin agreed readily, hanging up and tossing his phone onto the back seat.
