Chapter 611
Brielle shielded her eyes as she watched his retreating figure. She realized that her rtionship with
Max had hit an unprecedented impasse.
The car crash the day before yesterday might have been orchestrated by Max’s kin, andst night’s
debacle was the Rond family’s doing. It seemed like the whole world was against her.
All because she was with Max.

A fiery determination flickered in her eyes. If being with Max meant defying most of Beaconsfield, then
so be it.
After freshening up, she stepped out just in time to bump into Patrick. He nodded with respect. “Ms.
Brielle, I’m relieved you’re alright.”
It was no wonder that the president had left everything and everyone behindst night to rush to
Brielle’s side and watch over her all night. The scene had been too horrific, and it was difficult to
imagine anyone who had been through such an ordeal not being on the brink of madness.
Patrick had half expected to find a woman teetering on the edge of copse, thinking Brielle might
break down in tears when she saw Max. But when he followed Max back, he heard Wesley say Brielle
had already fallen asleep.
What woman could fall asleep so quickly after witnessing such horror? Patrick found himself admiring
Brielle’s strength while also pitying Max.
For every ounce of sorrow Ms. Brielle felt, Max experienced it tenfold. If Ms. Brielle’s heart was slightly
bruised, Max’s was probably already shattered.
Perhaps it was the tragedy and greatness of this world that life rarely offered truth. Yet it was filled with
so many forms of love.
Absurdities ruled, but love was the savior. That was Max for you.
Brielle didn’t dwell on it much longer. Instead, she inquired about Adrian’s whereabouts, as she had
some questions for him.
Patrick hesitated, then asked, “Shouldn’t we wait for the president’s meeting to end?”
She couldn’t wait another moment. She needed to act now, or else once she had a moment of calm,
she’d remember Aubree’s despairing eyes, her body marred with marks, and that gruesome, bloodied
tooth.
Patrick was about to make arrangements to escort her when Max’s voice echoed from the study. “Don’t
go off on your own. Wait for me.”
He had been listening to themotion outside all along.

Brielle stiffened, thinking he was supposed to be in a meeting. Then she heard him continue to engage
with the people on the other side of the camera, earning apuse.
Patrick sighed somewhat helplessly. “Ms. Brielle, since that’s the case, please wait for Mr. Dorsey.
Otherwise, I’ll have a tough time exining things once the meeting is over.”
Brielle nodded. With Max having said that, she naturally didn’t dare to act on her own.
Seizing the moment, Patrick suggested, “Ms. Brielle, why don’t you head downstairs for a meal?
Wesley was worried you looked ill when you came backst night, and he’s been brewing a nourishing
soup for you since early this morning.”
Wesley had a penchant for brewing soups.
Feeling hollow inside, Brielle made her way downstairs. Wesley immediately instructed the kitchen to
serve the soup. “Ms. Brielle, please drink up. Were you illst night? You looked so pale. This soup will
boost your health.”
“Wesley, I’m sorry for worrying you. By the way, do we have any vitamins? Could I have a bottle?”
Brielle asked.
Curiosity flickered in Wesley’s eyes. What did Ms. Brielle need vitamins for? But he didn’t pry and
quickly fetched a bottle of imported vitamins.
Brielle tore off the packaging so no one could see what was inside. Her smiled slightly as she tucked
the bottle into her purse and then leisurely began sipping her soup.
By the time Max finished his meeting, an hour had passed. During that time, Brielle had Patrick arrange
for someone to apprehend Sydney and bring her to Dorsey International, though Brielle made sure
Sydney wasn’t detained with Adrian.
