Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1141

Irene flicked her lighter and lit another cigarette. This drama was finally reaching its curtain call. She owed Colton for his years of dedication to the organization, so she decided to see him off personally, now that his usefulness had run its course.

She slipped Colton a pill, temporarily giving him a jolt of energy.

"You never had a heart, kid. Your father handed you over to me, and I never thought we'd end up here, Irene. Are you sure about this?"

Colton genuinely loved her but knew she was as heartless as Kenzo.

Irene exhaled a stream of smoke. "Uncle Si, this is the end of our play. Tonight, you'll hand everything over to Kenzo. After that, you can retire in peace. Either I see you off, or you handle it yourself. I'm offering you this dignity because of all the years you've stood by me." Within the organization, everyone had a shared resolve, unafraid of death. Knowing Irene's decision, Colton had no objections left.

When he realized he truly loved Irene, he also knew he was destined to be discarded eventually. Men came and went in Irene's life, but he had always been the constant, the one her father had chosen, foolishly believing he'd be the last.

But Kenzo took that place.
