Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 566

Andrew was still reeling from the unexpected call when Max’s voice came through the line. “Max?” Suspicion flickered through his mind. Could someone be playing a prank with Max’s phone?

“Andrew, Aubree got plastered.”

Andrew pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling Tessa stir in his arms. He’d thought he’d awakened her and gently patted her back to soothe her.

“I’m aware, but didn’t Brielle go to look after her? Tessa is feeling under the weather, and I need to stay here and take care of her.”

Tessa, now fully awake, snuggled closer. “Who’s calling?”

“Max.”

Anger flared in Tessa’s eyes at the mention of Aubree’s name. Why was Max calling about that tramp? She fumed internally, thinking it was high time to talk to Andrew’s mum about marrying Aubree off and out of their lives.

Max, picking up on Tessa’s voice, understood the implications. It was late; they were obviously sharing a bed.
