Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 863

Besides, my future father-in-law has already given his blessing.

Raymond had already walked a good distance from the boutique. It wasn't uncommon for the CEO of Infinity Brilliance to inspect the counters; Dustin had done it a few times before. Now that Raymond was back in action, it made sense for him to stop by and boost morale.

The executives trailing behind him were all the picture of deference, careful not to overstep or say too much in his presence. Not a single one of them dared ask where young Mr. Lynch had wandered off to.

After Raymond had made his rounds, offering a few minor suggestions, he left, surrounded by his attentive entourage. Before exiting, he made a point to stop by the same counter he had visited earlier. Normally, he wouldn't bother with such trifles, but today, he personally asked the clerk if they had given a discount to a customer. Assured that a member discount was applied, he felt relieved.

Yet, thinking of Brielle's face, Raymond felt a tinge of regret. He should've just waived the fee altogether. After all, his son was always charming his lady friends with little trinkets. Those baubles were as common as dirt in the Lynch household, tossed around for amusement. He rubbed his brow, his expression turning somber at the thought of his son. Yet to outsiders, he appeared unchanged. His demeanor wasn't icy like Max's but rather dignified and composed, exuding a quiet strength.

The executives followed him to the waiting car, and just like on their arrival, they drove off in an impressive convoy.

Meanwhile, Brielle and Max had just pulled up at the hotel entrance. Max was about to take Brielle's hand when his phone rang. A frown creased his forehead - it was the hospital.
