Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 930

"Boss, Ms. Brielle needs you right now."

"I know," Max replied, his voice rough. He gathered the documents, a flicker of pain crossing his features. "But there will be times when I can't be there, Patrick. When that happens, Brielle's word is as good as mine." "Got it," Patrick nodded.

Max massaged his temples and reached for some painkillers. He swallowed one, trying to maintain his usual stoic demeanor, but the throbbing pain was too much to hide.

As time passed, the pain only grew worse.

Two days later.

"Lone Walker" was smashing box office records, dominating online discussions. Those who had mocked Brielle were now eating crow. The movie was outperforming all its competition, with rave reviews hinting at even greater success. This was just the beginning. The online buzz was electric, and Stellar Stage Entertainment was riding high.

Inside Stellar Stage, excitement was at a fever pitch. Employees joked about hanging Brielle's picture on the wall like a trophy.

The aspiring artists, witnessing the film's success, were moved to tears.

They had all endured the rough times at Stellar Stage, and just days ago, they had turned down an offer from Dorsey International. Truth be told, they were scared. With the internet gunning for Stellar Stage, no one knew if the company would make it.

If Stellar Stage collapsed, rejecting Dorsey International would mean being blacklisted everywhere.

They were worried and afraid, but they wanted to follow Brielle's lead, come hell or high water.

Brielle was a leader worth following. Since taking over at Stellar Stage, every decision she'd made was for the artists and staff.
