Chapter 434 

Brielle gazed at the familiar scenery outside Pearl Estate and turned to him. Her words were caught in her throat as he bluntly said, “Get out.” 

Her eyelashes fluttered as she opened the door and stepped out. The moment the car door closed behind her, the vehicle was already speeding away. She watched the taillights vanish into the distance and raised a hand to massage her temples. 

To Max, it probably seemed like she could say no to Martha; Brielle was never one to take things lying down. But there she was, about to swallow those pills when he caught her red–handed. 

Brielle was touched that Max had snatched the pills from her lips, but the more touched she was, the more powerless she felt. What was she to do? Tell Max about the pregnancy, and then what? Have him confront Martha? 

Martha had already made her threats clear: it would be either her or no baby. If Martha ever found out about the child, she would force Brielle to terminate the pregnancy. 

Brielle’s mind was a whirlwind of chaos. For a fleeting moment, she even considered leaving Beaconsfield and taking the life growing inside her someplace else. She would have the baby first and figure out the rest later

But what about Max

She was greedy, wanting both the child and Max. 

After driving a distance, Max pulled over to the side of the road. He had been too harsh with. Brielle, especially considering she had no choice. She was meeting an elder for the first time

But he was angry at her attitude, at how easily she reached for those pills. 

Max knew the risks; without precautions, a pregnancy could happen at any time. Since leaving the clinic, his mind had been foggy. To him, a child wasn’t a big deal. If it were Brielle’s, it would probably be adorable, just like her. 

But he couldn’t bear to think that during all their intimate moments, Brielle might have been taking those pills. She must’ve known they were harmful to her health, right? 

Knowing the risks and still not asking him to take precautions, that was what infuriated him about Brielle. 

Max slammed on the gas. His brows furrowed in frustration, just as Michael called to ask. where he was. “Max, get back to the Dorsey estate; we need to deal with that kid’s issue.” He was talking about the Illegitimate child scandal Ryan had caused. 

Max’s frown deepened. His mind was already in turmoil; he might as well go to the Dorsey estate and assess the situation. 

The Dorsey family had assembled in the living room at the Dorsey estate, save for the two who

were seldom present. The atmosphere was tense, with no one daring to speak before Michael had his sav 

Ivan looked miserable, divinusly having been disciplined, but it wasn’t enough. The chilers situation had to be addressed. 

Michael was seated at the head of the room and hanged his hand on the table, starting everyone but Mas

Michael’s gaze lingered on Rtvan before shifting to William, whose face was pater. The two were in a bind, especially William, whose affair with Sue had nearly become town gossip if Michael hadn’t firmly suppressed it. Michael had also put pressure on the police and was trying to convince Sue to settle privately, She could have her settlement, but if she refused to see reason, she’d have no one to blame but herself for his lack of kindness. 

In the midst of the grave atmosphere, a woman knelt in the center of the room, clutching a child, barely a year old, to her chest. The paternity test confirmed the child was Ryan’s. 

So, with an icy tone, Michael declared, “You knew what you were getting into when your approached us. The Dorsey family will not acknowledge this child.” 

The woman, having ulven birth, clearly had ambitions. Even if she couldn’t rise through the ranks, she intended to milk the Dorseys for all they were worth. 

“I will leave with the child, but I want money,” she stated bluntly, with no hesitation, aware shel had no place in the Dorsey family. 

Michael massaged his temples. If the child had not been born, he would have dragged her to a hospital for a forced abortion, but now, looking at the baby’s round eyes, even the hardened. man couldn’t bring himself to do it. 

“Ryan, you’ve just returned to Dorsey International and have already caused a scandal. It’s best you don’t go to the company. Stay home and clean up this mess. And William, I’m disappointed In you too. If you both learned a thing or two from Max, it wouldn’t have come to this.”  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
