Master of his heart ( Brielle And Max ) novel Chapter 495

Chapter 495 

Jose breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Michael accepted Alivia as his daughter–in–law, Brielle would never gain the approval of the Dorsey family. 

Knowing Michael for years, Jose was well aware that this old man was far from calm. He was merely biding his time. 

With his fiery personality, Max couldn’t be suppressed by mere tactics. Brielle needed to accumulate enough disappointment to leave of her own volition. 

The chasm between the two was too great; what passed for affection would become a deep. bitter bond. The further things progressed, the more unpredictable the dangers became. 

After hanging up the phone, Michael handed his mobile to the butler. 

The butler, noticing the fresh calligraphy spread across the chairs and table from the night before and that morning, knew Erik’s mind was already in turmoil. It was only Michael’s years of business acumen that kept him from flying into a rage. 

Considering the gravity of the situation, the butler marveled at Michael’s composure and dreaded the thought of what his response might be when he finally took action. Then, remembering the figure still kneeling at the entrance, a flicker of uncertainty crossed the butler’s face. “Sir, Mr. Spencer has been kneeling at the doorstep for over twenty–four hours now.” 

Michael’s brush paused, his temples throbbing with pain. 

“And you haven’t had breakfast yet, sir. Your health is important.” The butler’s voice held a note of concern. 

Michael set aside his brush and took a warm towel to clean his fingers before making his way outside with the aid of his cane. There was Spencer, ashen–faced and unsteady, his forehead bruised from his steadfast vigil. 

Michael felt a stronger pulse at his temples – one nuisance after another! 

“Grandfather! Please don’t let Uncle Max be with Brielle. She was my fiancée, and Uncle Max’s dalliance with her will be the talk of Beaconsfield! If Brielle is to marry, it should be to me, Grandfather, I-” 

His plea was cut short as the cane came crashing down upon him. Spencer winced in pain but bit his lip, refusing to make a sound. 

“Brielle has you all in a twist! You’re determined to drive me to the grave. It was you who insisted on getting engaged to her when you were both so young, and it was you who later called it off. If it weren’t for you, would Brielle have ever met Max?!” 

This was precisely why Spencer felt such indignation. His knees ached from kneeling, and his blood felt like it had turned to ice.

“I was the one who saw Brielle’s shine first, and Uncle Max has no right to steal her away!” 

Michael swung his cane again, fury in his stroke. Tears welled up in Spencer’s eyes, and he couldn’t hold them back any longer. 

His pitiful state only fueled Michael’s anger. “You were outdone by a woman in business and are now in love, too? If you want to kneel, keep at it, and maybe it’ll clear that lovesick fog in your head.” 

Spencer fell silent, his lips pressing together as tears continued to fall.
