Chapter 429
Spencer’s lip curled into a smirk. “I’ve got someone watching Brielle, and they found a
used pregnancy test in the trash–double lines.”
Alivia’s mind buzzed, her grip on her phone nearly slipping. Brielle was pregnant–the very
thing Alivia had dreaded most was happening!
“But Uncle Max is still in the dark, Ms. Alivia. I don’t want that kid to be born. I’m hoping
you can help me out here.”
Alivia had connections, the kind that could take care of messes perfectly. Spencer didn’t
care whether he faced backlash from Brielle or the rest of the Dorseys later. He just
couldn’t stand the thought of Brielle having another man’s child! The very idea of that
child’s existence was torture to him!
Hearing this, Alivia felt a laugh bubbling up. Brielle was such a fool. She had the perfect
opportunity to tell Max about the pregnancy. Knowing him, he would have shouted it from
the rooftops, announcing their wedding to the world. But Brielle chose to hide it, an utterly
foolish move! She was practically handing over the chance to drive a wedge between her
and Max!

to maintain her carefully curated persona. “Spencer, are you sure about this? After all,
that’s
Max’s first child. If he finds out…”
“I’ll take full responsibility for the consequences. He’s not going to kill me.” Michael would
never want to see such a thing happen anyway.
That was exactly what Alivia needed to hear. Orchestrating such a scheme was simple for
her, but she worried about being exposed, revealing her true face to Max himself. She had
to hide her intentions well, to drive Brielle out of Beaconsfield.
“Ms. Alivia, it sounds like you’ve got a plan.”
The corners of Alivia’s mouth turned up slightly. She now understood Brielle’s hesitations.
It was because Brielle was of low status, and since Max’s feelings weren’t deep enough
yet, Brielle couldn’t be sure he would accept the child. If other members of the Dorsey
family found
out, what would become of the child?
The Dorseys wouldn’t tolerate any illegitimate offspring. Only someone with Alivia’s
background would be fit to bear Max’s children.
“I do have an idea, but I’m hesitant. Spencer, are we doing the right thing?”
In Spencer’s eyes, Alivia was a paragon of virtue, a blank slate when it came to love.
Plotting something like this must’ve been difficult for her. “Ms. Alivia, you’ve waited for
Uncle Max for years. Can you really stand by and watch him marry another woman? If you
work with me, it’s a win–win. You get Uncle Max, I get rid of Brielle, and everyone’s
happy.”
A hint of sarcasm flickered in Alivia’s eyes. She couldn’t fathom what potion Brielle had

Spencer. Even with Brielle pregnant, he couldn’t let go. “If that’s the case, then alright. I
do have a plan in mind, but I’ll need your cooperation.”
Spencer’s eyes were full of glee as he ended the call and rubbed his eyes. He had to do
this. If blame was due, it was Brielle’s for getting pregnant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter finishing her day’s work, Brielle received a text from Max, saying he wanted to take
her somewhere. Her mind raced through all the places couples might go–a funfair, a park,
maybe even a countryside inn. But it wasn’t until she was in the car, pulling up at a top–
tier sanatorium, that her heart started to race.
Max leaned back in his seat, his long fingers resting on the steering wheel. “Brielle, I’ve
thought about it and decided to bring you here to meet my mother. She doesn’t know
about us yet, but I want you to understand me better.”
It was a well–considered move by Max. Aside from Alivia, who had always been close with
Martha, Max had never brought anyone else to meet his mother, not even Michael.
Brielle’s nerves kicked in–she hadn’t expected Max to bring her to meet Martha so soon.
Sensing her anxiety, Max reached for her hand, warming it in his own. “The last time I
spoke with Alivia, you overheard. My mother’s lucid moments are frequent now, but she
could relapse at any time. I shouldn’t be introducing you to her so soon, but I can’t shake
this feeling of unease. Maybe you’ll feel more secure if you meet more of my family.”
Max’s words were heartfelt, making Brielle wish she could tell him right then that she was
pregnant.
