Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 483

In the grand lobby of the hotel, the Dorsey clan had just met up with the Rowland folks.

Truth be told, this wasn’t a gathering of three families. After all, when you were discussing nuptials, it was not exactly a group huddle situation.

The Dorseys and the Rowlands had already planned an early meeting here, and the Barnes clan happened to have booked the room next door, so all three ended up bumping into each other in the hallway.

After exchanging pleasantries, the Dorseys and the Rowlands headed to the adjacent private dining room.

Alivia stood amidst the crowd, sneaking a glance at Max.

Tonight’s main event wasn’t about Spencer and Sophia. It was about her and Max. She had everything planned down to a T. With Max having forgotten all about Brielle, this was the perfect opportunity to strike. The engagement date had to be set tonight.

As for Spencer and Sophia, they were merely her backdrop. She was quite accustomed to using others as her stage setting. Besides, Spencer would stir the pot soon enough.

Max was poker–faced, while Spencer and Sophia sat at a considerable distance from each other, hardly looking like a couple about to get engaged.

Once the Dorsey party settled in, the Rowland party followed suit. Spencer and Sophia were arranged to sit together. If he couldn’t marry Brielle, then who he married didn’t matter. It wouldn’t stop him from pursuing her. With the elders present, he simply watched them clinking glasses, eagerly anticipating the upcoming drama.
