Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1071

Kailee couldn't see anything, but her gut was screaming that the woman Isaac mentioned was the same one she had seen that day. Anger bubbled up inside her, and she shot up, pointing an accusing finger at King. "Were you just messing with me when you talked about marrying me yesterday?!"

King didn't even flinch, his fingers tapping away on his computer, completely ignoring her.

Just then, Kailee's phone rang. It was her brother, Joseph. Tears welled up in her eyes as she answered the call, quickly wiping them away.

"Bro."

"You still at King's place?"

"Yeah."

As soon as the word left her mouth, she saw King get up, apparently heading upstairs. She hurried after him.

"King, give it to me straight. Were you just playing me yesterday? I'm warning you, even if you're from Saudi, I'm not scared of you. If you dare mess with me, my brother will handle you! He doesn't blink an eye at killing!" Joseph, the so-called "killer," sighed, rubbing his temples. "Stop making a fool of yourself and come home."

Kailee hesitated but then heard Joseph's voice drop to a serious tone. "I don't want to repeat myself."

Kailee froze, no longer chasing after King.
