Chapter 192
Tessa knew the conversation was about Aubree, and it seemed Andrew hadn’t lied. He
really had set Aubree up with someone.
She let out a sigh of relief. It looked like there was nothing between Andrew and Aubree
after
all.
But did Aubree really match up to the CEO of Infinity Brilliance?
She snickered inwardly, took a seat next to Andrew, and spoke for him, “She did leave
early, went out with a friend.”
“A friend?”
Dustin’s interest piqued, recalling the phone call Aubree had made. Could it have been
Brielle?
Dustin’s reason for prodding Max tonight was because he’d learned Brielle’s real name.
He’d been duped badly before, and it wasn’t until he met with Andrew back home that he
found out the little canary had given him a fake name..
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe really had no conscience. Didn’t they both gossip about Max when they were abroad?
“Yeah, her name is Brielle. I don’t think Mr. Lynch would know her.”
“How could I not know her? Brielle and I have had quite delightful conversations.”
He deliberately emphasized “delightful conversations,” then watched for Max’s reaction.
The man’s face darkened, not at him, but turning to Tessa. “You said Aubree left with
Brielle?”
His tone seemed normal at first, but his lips were tightly pursed.
Brielle wasn’t here for him? But for Aubree?
The air in the booth felt stifling to him.
Tessa hadn’t expected Max to speak with her, and it seemed he was asking about Brielle?
“Yeah.”
She leaned towards Andrew, whispering a question only they could hear, “What’s the deal
with Brielle and Max?”
Andrew was almost instinctively going to deny it, since no one yet knew about their
relationship. If word got to Michael, no one would be in for a good time.
But before he could speak, Dustin stood up, raising his glass. “Mr. Dorsey, I’d like to invite
Brielle over to Infinity Brilliance for a tour, business–related, of course. You wouldn’t
object, would you?”
A smile played on his lips, his eyes shimmering, but Max remained unflinching, “Dorsey
International has no plans to collaborate with Infinity Brilliance at this time.”

Chapter 192
“Mr. Dorsey, she’s just an employee. Why the fuss?”
Dustin leaned in, pouring Max a drink, his demeanor momentarily submissive. “Brielle
won’t be at a loss with me. All stores under Infinity Brilliance will be free for her, as long as
she accompanies me on a trip abroad. How about that?”
Max’s grip tightened on his glass, tempted to splash the contents over Dustin’s grinning
face.
He began to wonder if he’d been too stingy with Brielle.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe’d offered a card before, but Brielle hadn’t accepted it. So far, it seemed he hadn’t
provided. any tangible benefits.
Even Dustin was offering all stores for free right off the bat, making him feel one–upped.
A competitive edge rose within him, and he looked up at Dustin, “Brielle has more
important tasks at hand. Mr. Lynch, if you want to please someone, perhaps you should
consider how to help her land this deal. What do you think?”
Dustin’s eyes narrowed, thinking Max was quite cunning.
Brielle was working for Dorsey International, negotiating deals for them. If he helped
Brielle. wouldn’t that indirectly benefit Dorsey International?
He failed to wedge himself into the situation but managed to make Max a profit.
Capitalists and their tricks…
The corners of Max’s mouth curved into a smile as he stood, “It’s getting late. I’ll head out.
Mr. Lynch, if you make up your mind, feel free to visit Dorsey International anytime.”
The trap was set right before Dustin’s eyes – whether he jumped or not was entirely up to
him.
