Chapter 369


    Spencer’s cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and anger as he felt the weight of everyone’s


    gazes upon him. The calmposure he had walked in with was now a distant.


    memory.


    “Me, a serial cheater? Why don’t you take a good look at yourself?!” His voice was thick with rage, his


    chest heaving with every breath..


    Brielle let out a soft chuckle.


    “Spencer, it’s all about evidence. There’s a video of you and my so–called sister getting cozy floating


    around. And let’s not forget all these lovely witnesses here who can testify that you’ve been hounding


    me even after we called off our engagement. If I’m so terrible, why are you so desperate to rewind time


    with me? Are you blind?”


    Spencer was speechless, his fury nearly choking him. He wanted tosh out and question Brielle about


    her dealings with Max, but the room was too crowded.


    He knew if he let slip even a hint of scandal, regardless of proof, Dorsey International would take a hit.


    And he’d be public enemy number one in Max’s eyes.


    Hanging onto hisst shred of sanity, Spencer clenched his fists by his side, wishing he could throttle


    Brielle.


    That witch.


    Damn her!


    Noticing his silence, Brielle’s lips curled into a slight smile. “You’ve badmouthed me more times than I


    can count, Spencer. I used to think you were just immature. Now I see you’re just petty and mean–


    spirited. So, let’s cut to the chase and not keep the police waiting for their statement.”


    Brielle rarely aired her dirtyundry in public, but now she was using it to her advantage–not to


    condemn Spencer but to shift the focus.


    Herck of grief over Sarah’s death wasn’t due to cold–heartedness; she had no reason to feel. guilty.


    As Sarah’s boss, Brielle had been lenient despite repeated provocations. She hadn’t fired. Sarah or cut


    her pay. That was mercy enough.


    Sarah had maliciously leaked that video, inviting cyberbullying from the oblivious masses. Brielle was


    the victim here.


    Sarah’s death, to her, was just the loss of an employee–and not even a pleasant one.


    It wasn’t callousness; it was simply the truth.


    However, this persistent belief that the dead must be honored made her pragmatism seem selfish.

    “People are dead, Brielle, and you’re just standing there unaffected. Is there anyone colder than you?”


    Spencer spat the words out like they left a bad taste in his mouth.


    Brielle frowned, her disdain for Spencer growing.


    “She’s gone, and the real question is who’s responsible. I’m cooperating with the investigation–that’s


    the most meaningful thing I can do right now. Move aside!”


    She brushed past Spencer, not even sparing him a nce.


    Spencer watched her go, his face a patchwork of anger and pallor.


    At the door, Brielle turned to Simon. “This was the former head of our department. Go bother him if you


    want scene.”


    Her voice was indifferent as she addressed the crowd, then made her exit.


    The police officer, following her lead, tried to calm the situation. “Currently, there’s no evidence pointing


    to Miss Brielle. The autopsy report will be out soon, so please wait for further investigation.”


    With that, the officer followed Brielle out of the department.


    Simon and his group hade for Brielle. They were urged on by someone who had paid them to stir


    up as much trouble as possible, hoping to drag Dorsey International into the mess.


    But Brielle’s quick wit had foiled their n. She remainedposed and managed to walk away


    unscathed.


    Feeling the pressure of the ten million he’d been paid for this job, Simon tugged desperately at


    Spencer’s sleeve.

    “Mr. Spencer, you’ve got to back us up. You’ve seen Brielle’s attitude–it’s atrocious. We expect Dorsey


    International to fire her andpensate for my daughter’s loss.”


    A woman joined Simon, clutching at Spencer as if he were herst hope.


    Spencer’s face darkened instantly. Simon was clearly after money, but Spencer wasn’t a fool to throw


    Dorsey International’s funds at him.


    With Brielle gone, who was he putting on this show for?


    He shrugged off Simon’s grasp and frowned at the security guard. “What are you waiting for? Take


    them to the lobby.”


    His change in demeanor didn’t go unnoticed by the live–stream viewers.
