Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1271

Peyton was secretly terrified of Leona. Speaking up against her in the cafeteria was only possible because her daughter was by her side.

But now, alone and unguarded, she hurried towards her home with a sense of urgency.

Leona, faster on her feet, caught up and noticed Peyton carrying two bags, one branded with a luxury makeup logo.

"Look at you, country bumpkin, where'd you swipe the cash from? If it weren't for the generous perks at Stellar Stage Entertainment, you and your daughter wouldn't even have a pot to piss in. Don't tell me your girl's got herself a sugar daddy? Tsk, how low can you go?" Peyton initially chose to ignore Leona, but the mention of her daughter ignited her anger.

Leona approached and shoved her, "Just what I said. Living in the same place as you makes me sick. Can't wait for the auditions to end so I don't have to see trash like you anymore."

"What the hell are you on about?!"

Peyton, having been bedridden for years and only recently gaining a bit of weight since moving to Beaconsfield, couldn't match Leona's physical strength.
