Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 657

Getting shot down by Kenzo really lit a fire under her. Then she heard through the grapevine that John was still scrapping by and couldn’t help but dial his number.

John’s voice was cool, ‘Yes, I’ve found someone willing to invest in my company.”

Amelia let out a scoff, surprised that John now seemed to handle her call without losing his cool. It seemed that the boss of the new company had given him a solid confidence boost.

“Well, I’m all eyes. I mean, you’re my ex–husband. Even though your past deeds were quite scandalous, it wouldn’t be a total waste of our marriage if you’re willing to pick yourself up.”

Hearing her hypocritical words made John feel sick to his stomach. After all those years together, he never really saw through her until she showed her true colors. The domestic abuse allegations stuck after the divorce. She transferred all the funds to her account, and he was cleaned out, leaving his reputation in

tatters.

And there she was, climbing over him, even taking over the network he had built.

How could he accept that?

His eyes reddened, but looking up into Brielle’s serene gaze, he found his resolve again. “Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. As for you, I bet you won’t sleep a wink tonight.” With that, he hung up.

Amelia clenched her teeth in anger. Where was he getting his confidence?
