Chapter 532
The air was thick with tensiun Brielle felt like a convict being marched to the gallows,
undergoing the ecrutinizing gaze of those around her
She noticed Max hadn’t approached yet, and whispered just loud enough for the two of
them to hear “Ta okay, Max. Trust me, I can handle this.”
Max’s lips tightened for a moment before he reluctantly took a seat on the couch.
Spencer, sitting nearby, couldn’t help but let a smirk of irony cross his face. He had
thought Max was quite fond of Brielle, but it seemed that was all it was. When it came
down to it, and the senior members of the Dorsey family gathered, Max didn’t dare openly
defend Brielle. It was pitiful,
His gaze bore into Brielle, searching her face for a trace of fear. He couldn’t let go, even
now. Just looking at Brielle made his heart ache, an ache so severe it felt like death.
His nostrils flared with bitterness, his eyes red and hot with unshed tears. Every day, he
pondered on how to break them apart, even fueling the fire online. He did everything
within his power, only to push Brielle further away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSpencer clenched his fists tightly, his eyes never leaving Brielle as if he wished to devour
her whole. Yet, Brielle didn’t panic. She sat quietly, waiting for Michael’s next words.
Michael lifted his cup, his tone authoritative. “Do you realize you have no right to cross
this threshold?”
At that, Max’s expression darkened with defiance, “Father.” His tone was firm.
Michael raised an eyebrow, setting down his cup. “I’m just stating the facts. The chatter
outside is far harsher than anything I might say. Or do you plan to live in denial forever,
ignoring the world’s opinions?”
He knew exactly where to strike. Michael’s presence was powerful, not sharp, but it bore a
tremendous weight.
The rest of the Dorsey clan nodded in agreement, clearly finding his point valid.
The two calmest people in the room were Brielle and Everett. Brielle had the courage to
face the situation, while Everett simply didn’t care about the Dorsey family’s affairs. Still,
he couldn’t help but scrutinize Brielle, sneering internally. He could already anticipate her
downfall–a mere female version of himself.
Brielle sat up straight, her eyes clear upon hearing Michael’s words. “Michael, I’ve always
believed that caring too much about others‘ opinions turns you into their servant.”
“Your disregard doesn’t make those opinions vanish. Max’s reputation suffers because of
you. If you feel no guilt, it proves you don’t love him enough.”
Michael’s second punch hit Max hard. He spoke sparingly, but every word counted. To

Chapter 532
Michael, the young couple’s love was like a teetering skyscraper. When it falls, those
inside would perish, and he wouldn’t allow his most promising son to be trapped within.
The accusation of insufficient love was designed to create a rift in Max’s heart. He
might’ve been certain of his love for Brielle, but how sure was he of hers? Max trusted
himself, but did
he trust Brielle?
In psychological warfare, Michael was as astute as Max. Without uttering a harsh word,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmevery phrase was a needle to their hearts.
In the face of absolute disparity, Brielle’s efforts seemed futile. Her very existence
threatened to harm Max. Michael intended to make this crystal clear to her.
Brielle’s hands tensed on her lap, yet her gaze remained lucid. “Michael, I won’t deny your
words. All I have to offer right now is my determination, which I’m willing to risk. Max isn’t
a calculated choice for me; he’s a conviction I pursue despite knowing better. He lacks
nothing, and if he chose me, it’s because I offer what he most desires–sincerity and
loyalty. I will continue to give him my all, unreservedly.”
Brielle’s eloquence was no secret to Michael.
Upon her finishing, Max’s previously grim expression softened into a faint smile. Spencer,
on the sidelines, felt an overwhelming urge to rise and strangle Brielle.
A conviction pursued despite knowing better?
This was a colossal joke! What did Brielle know about love?
Spencer felt as if he was in a trance, all his love and hate ready to explode. He was
determined to avenge himself on Brielle. If he couldn’t have her, he’d ensure no one else
could either.
