Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1229

Jaired couldn't believe what he was seeing; his hands froze on the controls.

"Why?"

She heard Jaired ask.

Raising an eyebrow, Irene replied, "You assassinate a prince, and you think the North American military's just gonna sit around twiddling their thumbs? Letting him live this long was already a miracle. With satellites covering every inch, there was no way he could hide." Jaired's hands trembled slightly, his eyes reddening.

"Couldn't we save him, though?"

"Sure, but only if I become the president of North America. Even if we wanted to save him, would he even want that? For him, death might be the best option. Brielle doesn't hate him. Everything ends on a high note. How perfect."

She had asked him time and time again, do you really want to stay?

He was smart, perceptive. How could he not catch her drift?
