Chapter 311

“Max, how about we hit the town tonight to celebrate, eh? Alivia’s coming back soon, and since you’ve had your fill of Brielle, maybe it’s time to put a ring on Alivia? She’s been waiting for you for years.”

Engagement? The thought had never seriously crossed Max’s mind.

Andrew had been mid–sip of his water when Max dropped this bombshell. Andrew nearly choked on it. Everyone in Beaconsfield knew Alivia was holding out for Max, but now the man himself was saying she shouldn’t wait for him.

“I’ve made it clear before, I’m not into her.”

His tone was so firm it sent a chill through Andrew’s spine. If Alivia wasn’t in Max’s sights, who was?
