Chapter 594


    Brielle was worried that Patrick might walk in on them at any moment. Such a scene could be quite


    shocking for the poor guy.


    Max’s hand gently pressed against her waist, his voice a smooth baritone, “Don’t get distracted.”


    “But what if Patrick-”


    “Patrick wouldn’t be so clueless.”


    That was all it took for Brielle’s resolve to crumble, her head resting against his chest. Who would’ve


    thought that the formidable Mr. Dorsey would flirt with a woman in his office, and in such a tender tone,


    no less?


    Her cheeks flushed. Her fiery confidence when challenging the executives earlier was nowhere to be


    found.


    Max’s breathing became uneven as he swept her off her feet and carried her into the adjoining lounge.


    “Max, are you really gonna–mmph.” She couldn’t get another word out. It seemed she had been


    leaving him dry too long–here they were, getting reckless in the office.


    The couch in the lounge was soft, and Brielle didn’t dare look at him. The orange sunset and clear blue


    sky were on full disy through the floor–to–ceiling windows. On the sunlit floory scattered clothes


    and the unmistakable scent of sex.


    She should stop him, but shecked the strength to resist. They had both been so busytely that


    finding time during the day to be together like this was rare.

    After a couple of hours of thoroughly mollifying the CEO, Brielle sensed he was still hungry for more,


    and she quickly got up from the couch. “There’s a ton of work waiting for me back at Ster Stage


    Entertainment.”


    Max watched her go, a light chuckle escaping him. Was he really that terrifying?


    “Max, I’ve gotta head out. There’s a lot to do. And I’m sure you’re swamped, too. Did everything go


    alright with Marthast night?”


    Mentioning Martha dimmed theughter in Max’s eyes. “Business as usual.”


    They had to resort to sedatives to administer thatst injection. Afterward, they made sure her food


    wasced with drugs to lower her guard.


    Brielle breathed a sigh of relief; no trouble from Martha was good news. She nced back at him and


    found Max propped up against the pillows, the epitome of casual elegance. It wasn’t the first time


    they’d sex, yet Brielle still felt a flush of heat on her face.


    “So, I’m leaving?”

    Chapter 594


    ‘Til have Patrick drive you.”


    “No need, I drove myself.”


    Max raised an eyebrow, his fingertip brushing his lips–a clear invitation.


    Brielle thought to herself that this man was far from the saintly image of “The Priest‘. He was temptation


    personified.


    Taking a deep breath, she leaned in and quickly pecked his lips. “I’m really off now. I’ve got my sights


    set on something big at Ster Stage Entertainment, and I’m all fired up.”


    Max’s eyes twinkled like shattered stars, his gaze trailing down her in a long, beautiful arc, chilly and


    aloof yet irresistibly inviting.


    Brielle stepped out of the office to bump into Sydney, who was there to deliver some documents.


    Sydney saw Brielle’s glowing face. Even her lips looked more luscious. Brielle must have worn only a


    hint of lipstick earlier, but now, it was all gone–clearly kissed away.


    Jealousy surged through Sydney. She wanted nothing more than to p that smug look off Brielle’s


    face.


    That bitch! Hadn’t she left thepany? Why was she here during working hours, trying to entice Mr.


    Dorsey?


    What a slut!


    Still emting Brielle’s style, Sydney red at her, grinding her teeth angrily.


    Brielle didn’t spare her a nce, heading straight for the private elevator.


    Sydney, who had taken the regr lift, couldn’t help but wonder what right a former employee had to


    use the executive elevator.


    Bubbling with spite, she followed Brielle and couldn’t resist taunting her. “Brielle, you really are


    shameless,ing here during work hours to seduce Mr. Dorsey.”


    As the elevator doors slid open, Brielle stepped inside and said with a lightugh, “You’d love to seduce


    him during work, wouldn’t you? But has he even nced your way? Your desperation is showing,


    Sydney. How’s life in your department? Rough, I bet?”


    Sydney was a poor imitation of Brielle,cking in her capabilities. Most of what she did ended in


    disaster. And with Spencer not yet reporting in, her heavy–handed approach to leadership had brewed


    discontent among her colleagues.

    Brielle’s words hit Sydney where it hurt most–herck ofpetencepared to Brielle. With a


    venomous re at the closing elevator doors, Sydney felt a tingling rage at the top of her head.
