Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1436

The woman stood there, her oversized sunglasses perched on her nose, arms crossed, with a smirk playing on her lips. "Wow, Dr. Lewis, is this really how you see me after all these years?" Lewis raised an eyebrow, leisurely picking up a napkin to dab at the coffee stains on his face. "Years have passed, but some things never change, Kailee."

Kailee took off her sunglasses, revealing her delicate features. "Good thing I showed up today, or I'd have missed hearing you badmouthing me. Funny, because in my eyes, you're still the same old drama king. Oh, and just so you know, I moved on ages ago. The guy I'm into now? He's miles better than you. But of course, you'd only talk trash behind my back."

And to think I once thought I couldn't live without him, what a joke!

What's he even going on about?!

Lewis calmly set down the napkin and adjusted his glasses with a small push. "If you're so into him, is he even interested in marrying you?"

Kailee stumbled over her words, suddenly feeling a bit sheepish. Of course not. King had just married Brielle recently. It infuriated her. Why didn't King choose her instead? Now she was left arguing with her so-called ex without a leg to stand on! Seeing her flustered expression, Lewis knew the man didn't want her, and he chuckled lightly. "Ah, unrequited love, huh?"

Kailee was trembling with anger, this jerk. After dumping her, she ran off to the Middle East, only to fall for King, who didn't even notice her. It wasn't like she was severely depressed back then. She was just under a lot of stress from the Sanchez family, and with her brother too busy, her mood was occasionally off. Sure, she might have lost her temper at him, okay maybe dozens of times, but how dare he talk behind her back like this?

"Ironically, my luck has only gotten better since we split. Looks like the problem wasn't me, Dr. Lewis, it was you. You're like a bad omen."
