Chapter 38
Just now, that woman was clearly at Premier Palace, and not in the study or the living
room. The bedroom, then?
But Max’s bedroom was a sanctuary. Aside from the housekeeping staff, he never allowed
others to enter.
Kenzo’s response was swift. [Max changing assistants? Not a chance.]
[Go check for me, will you? During my video chat with Max, I saw a woman. Does he have
a girlfriend now?]
[Max couldn’t possibly have a girlfriend.]
Alivia felt a wave of relief wash over her as she read this. Exactly, if Max really had a
girlfriend, not only would someone from her family notify her, but Michael himself would
personally call her. She glanced down at the screenshot in her hand, certain she hadn’t
encountered this woman at any social gatherings-definitely not a rich girl from a
prominent family. She’s probably just a new hire of Max’s. As for her presence at the
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netPremier Palace, perhaps there was some urgent matter.
She decided not to concern herself with it. After all, this was a trivial person, hardly worth
her attention.
Unbeknownst to Brielle, she had already been appraised from head to toe. Halfway
through her movie, her phone buzzed with a message. At the top of the list was one from
Aubree.
The shock of the previous night, coupled with a high fever that left her delirious, had made
Brielle instinctively shut the world out. Now, seeing Aubree’s name, she finally
remembered the incident at Tequila Sunset.
Back when Andrew and Tessa announced their engagement, the two families celebrated
over a lavish dinner. Aubree had missed that dinner, opting instead for drinks with her.
At the time, Brielle didn’t give it much thought. Now, with the situation clear, she realized
she might have been too carefree, as the signs had been there all along.
But Aubree could like anyone she wanted. Why on earth would it be Andrew? Andrew was
ruthless to others and even more so to himself, completely unhinged.
His obsession with Tessa was so deep it seemed he’d hold her in the palm of his hand if he
could. For Aubree to get entangled with him was, to put it bluntly, demeaning. Just the
way Andrew treated Aubree that night, using her as nothing more than a tool for his
frustration, made Brielle’s chest tighten uncomfortably.
She didn’t reply to Aubree’s text. Instead, she booted up a computer to search for news
about Andrew.

The public profiles of these high-society bachelors were all impeccable. Ivy League
graduates, heirs to the Clements family fortune, net worth over a billion…
She scrolled down and stumbled upon news about Infinity Brilliance. The Clements family
was collaborating with Infinity Brilliance.
The news had been released just an hour ago, and it was already trending. Infinity
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netBrilliance was a titan in the diamond industry, and its owners knew how to play the
marketing game generation after generation. Their most successful campaign had linked
diamonds to engagements.
No one knew why diamonds became synonymous with marriage proposals. It seemed like
an unwritten rule everyone just followed. However, Brielle knew the company well from
her college days, and it was all just a brainwashing marketing scheme.
Infinity Brilliance was notoriously domineering in their industry practices, and this was the
first time they’d so publicly collaborated with a rival company. She was about to scroll
further when her phone pinged again with a message from Aubree. [Bri, can you tell me
what’s going on with you and Max?]
Aubree had thought long and hard before sending that message, not expecting an
immediate response. She had been taken aback to learn about the so-called “little canary”
from Andrew’s lips. She also understood that Brielle was in no mood to engage with her
now.
Brielle stared at the message for ten minutes. Their years of unspoken understanding told
her this was Aubree’s olive branch.
[We have slept together.]
