Chapter 475
Michael never really pondered the implications of the situation; his mind was set
on keeping things under wraps. Yet, he was well aware that some folks just
couldn’t keep their lips sealed. “Max, what do you reckon we do? You can’t bear
to let Brielle go, can you?” Michael's tone. carried a hint of sternness. If Max
hesitated, Michael was resolute about not letting Brielle off
the hook.
“Dad, I'm simply looking at the facts. Sure, we can remove Brielle from her
position—after all, Dorsey International is our family’s turf. But she’s built a
reputation in her department. Event fabricating a resignation letter might not stop
the chatter. As for the mess with William and Sue, we've already leaned on the
police and gagged some of the press. If we keep this up, it'll only draw suspicion
from the higher—ups. There's been a shake-up in their ranks recently—new faces
in, old ones out. The new broom sweeps clean, and the Dorsey family’s
reputation can’t afford a single misstep.”
Michael squinted, considering the recent shift in power and the truth in the saying
about new officials making big changes. The debacle William stirred up had been
a major
embarrassment, and now, with Spencer’s predicament, it was likely to grab
unwanted attention.
Max’s words, though—purely objective and in the family’s best interest-caused
Michael ant instant headache.
“Wouldn't stripping Brielle of her title let her off easy? Thanks to her, Spencer
ended up in the ER.”
“Since it’s all about emotions, and with Spencer's wedding around the corner,
consider that chapter closed. As for Brielle, she’s nothing without her job. Cut her
off from Dorsey International, and she’s done for. That's a more bitter pill to
swallow than mere confinement. She’s a tough cookie, but it’s the softest cuts
that hurt the most.”
A flicker of satisfaction crossed Michael's eyes, and his lips curled into a faint
smile. “Follow your plan then. I'll have someone notify the police to hold her for
two more days, then release her. As you said, once fired, we'll make sure she
can't find work anywhere else: She'll have no choice but to leave the country.”
“Exactly my point, Father.”
Michael sighed, immensely pleased with the strategy. Max always handled things
without personal feelings, and his indifference toward Brielle reassured Michael.
After hanging up, Max couldn't help but cough, the action stirring the chaos in his
mind. Discharging himself from the hospital after only three days was pushing it.
Patrick rushed over with a cup of warm water. “Mr. Dorsey, maybe you should
head back to the hospital for a bit more rest?”

But Max shook his head, ignoring the water and closing his laptop. “Move this
afternoon's meeting up, and convert all meetings in the next three days to
virtual.”
Patrick complied without protest.
