Master of his heart

Chapter 505
Alivia’s heart sneered beneath a facade of repentance, her strategy as cunning
as ever. By painting herself as a hopeless admirer brought low, she diluted the
severity of her mistakes.
It was all because she liked him so much that she erred. It was only out of
concern that she might've fallen for the wrong guy that she went to extremes.
She was ready to apologize, to make amends. Now, she was even trying to let
him go and give it a shot with Jaired. After all she had done, what more could he
ask for?
Even Max had nothing to say at this point.
Last night's vengeance had been dealt, the necessary words spoken. Now, faced
with Alivia’s earnest apology, if he were to remain stone—faced, he’d come off as
the aggressor.
A woman who erred from loving him too much, who had resolved to move on,
deserved to have bygones be bygones.
Alivia had predicted this outcome, so when Max remained silent, she pressed on.
“About that rosary, mine really did go missing. When I saw Brielle wearing one on
her wrist, and considering I never liked her, I jumped to conclusions. I can
apologize to her for that, too.”
Alivia produced a tastefully wrapped box from her purse and extended it towards
him. “Last night, my brother gave me a talking—to and set me straight this
morning. I wanted to meet Brielle in person to apologize, but she probably
doesn’t want to see me right now. Please, give her this gift for me. Max, I don’t
want Jaired to hear about any of this. I waited for you for years, and he’s waited
for me just as long. So, after I've apologized to Brielle in person, can we pretend
this never happened? Jaired's always been good to me; I don’t want him to find
out and lose face.”
Max didn't reach for the gift box. Instead, he lifted a hand to massage his temple,
his head throbbing occasionally. His voice softened. “No need for gifts. If you're
willing to give it a go. with Jaired, then do it right.”
A smile flickered on Alivia's face as she dabbed at her reddened eyes
“Last night was truly embarrassing, the most embarrassing night of my life.
Thankfully, my brother woke me up. I've let go of you now, and I hope our future
encounters won't be awkward. Jaired and I will attend the party tomorrow night.
My brother said we're treating it as a welcome-back party for Jaired. I'm telling
you in advance so you and Brielle don't feel obliged.”
With the conversation steering towards Jaired’s welcome back party, how could
Max not attend? Besides, he had already agreed to go with Brielle.
He stood up, his tone indifferent. “I haven't seen Jaired in a while, and Andrew
and your brother are probably missing him too. I'll be there with Brielle.”
Alivia sighed with relief. “Great, I'll let him know. It's also the perfect chance to
show him you're

taken.”
Her words were watertight, leaving Max with no retort. Just then, his phone rang.
It was Brielle. He stepped out into the corridor to take the call.
Alivia sat, watching his departing figure, a cold sneer crossing her features. This
was her plan. and it was working.
