Master of his heart ( Brielle And Max ) novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20

With that, he turned on his heel and strode into the private room without a moment’s

hesitation.

Aubree stood still, her fingertips trembling slightly. A mix of affection and grievance ebbed and flowed within her, surging up and receding again, causing her an unbearable

discomfort.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Brielle, knowing she didn’t want to see her, and she left first.

After watching Andrew enter the private room, Brielle felt uneasy all over. Andrew acted as if he had completely forgotten the awkward moment just before, deftly snuffing out his cigarette in the ashtray, ignoring Brielle’s presence as if she were invisible.

Women, in his opinion, were like monsters. You could treat them like dogs, beat them until your hand ached, but in the end, they would still love you. He had always been the golden. boy, never giving much thought to the sort of affection that came running at a beckon.

“If I had been born a few years earlier, what would those bastards matter? If it weren’t for their control over ninety percent of the global diamond mining resources, I wouldn’t bother dealing with those savages who point guns at your head at the drop of a hat. This time, securing the mining rights for those three mines nearly cost me my life.”

Brielle listened to their conversation, her thoughts slowly settling.

The Clements family was renowned in the jewelry business, with the two most famous brands in the region under their banner.

The Clements had managed to procure a few mines, which laid the foundation for their
