Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

When Michael spoke with much finality the others know better than to arque. After all, he was the leader of the family and Mac’s father His word was low, and no one dared to defy hin So, they could only glare at Brielle with even deeper resentment.

The most agitated of them all was Spencer. He knew about Stellar Stage Entertainment, was the company Ryan had taken over.

Given its name, it was obviously an entertainment company filled with C–list celebrities and hopefuls, none of whom had made a real name for themselves. Ryan had taken it over simply because it was full of pretty faces, and Spencer knew he had bedded more than a few of them.

Ryan treated Stellar Stage Entertainment like his personal playground, picking and choosing who to take to his hotel room when bored, and never truly nurturing the business. The whole company was crooked from top to bottom.

The women who were still there either couldn’t leave because of binding contracts or had nowhere else to go. The male talent fared even worse. The company didn’t even see them. as artists, using them for any odd job that came up, like dancing for a room full of seniors in some small town or performing at a local mall. Those performers had long since lost their pride and spark. Sending Brielle there was like sending her into the lion’s den.

With her finance background, Brielle didn’t know the first thing about the entertainment industry. Michael giving her the reins of Stellar Stage Entertainment seemed like an opportunity, but in reality, it was a set–up for despair.

A crooked company, a spiritless roster, and someone completely green to the entertainment scene what chance did she have, especially with the impossible goal of increasing the company’s

performance fiftyfold in six months?

Spencer’s lips curled up in a cold smile.

Another reason Grandpa had handed over the company to Brielle was to stir up resentment among the Dorsey family’s branches. Most of the extended family members present had not clue about the actual state of Stellar Stage Entertainment. Dorsey International had hundreds of national and international subsidiaries, and no one could’ve known the details of each company’s performance. So, to the extended family, it looked like Brielle had taken control of a company from the Dorsey fortune. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t deserve it!

What the extended family would do to Brielle was now a matter of her luck.

Spencer’s heart was racing with the thought that he could be of assistance to her if only she would ask. His gaze turned fervent, and he felt a famil

arousal, just from seeing her face, hearing her name, and listening to her voice she was like a demon he couldn’t exorcise. Brielle had become his obsession.

Brielle stood from her chair, nodded politely to everyone in the room, and followed Max out. The glares that followed her were like knives at her back.

Once outside, she saw that Max was gone, and his car with him. Her quick agreement had

hurt him. She knew it.

She took out her phone to call him when suddenly, someone grabbed her from behind. “Brielle, if you ask me, I can help you. I know some people at Stellar Stage Entertainment, and I can pull in some top stars from major entertainment firms in Beaconsfield,” Spencer’s voice whispered hotly in her ear.

Brielle’s face turned dark, and she threw Spencer over her shoulder onto the ground.

Spencer lay there, grimacing in pain, unable to get up.

Brielle clenched her phone and stepped on his chest. Spencer coughed, almost spitting blood under her foot.

Brielle stood over him, her gaze full of contempt and disgust. “Are you sick? Spencer, ever since that disgusting thing you did, I’ve felt nothing but revulsion towards you. Stay away

from me.”

A flame seemed to light in Spencer’s eyes as he stared at her.

Her animated face and disdainful tone thrilled him, and he felt an almost uncontrollable urge. He had realized too late that he liked Brielle loved her, even. He had turned to Lillian because Brielle was too aloof, too damaging to his pride.

During the years of their engagement, she was kind to him, but it was a distant kindness. Not matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t see himself reflected in her eyes. His attraction turned to resentment, convincing himself not to care, and that’s when he noticed Lillian’s allure.

Spencer swallowed hard, reaching for her leg. “Brielle-”

Brielle looked down and saw the bulge in his pants. She felt sick to her stomach, utterly disgusted. Was that all he ever thought about? She stomped on the offending area, causing Spencer to curl up, his

face beaded with sweat.
