Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 1446

Kailee's smile froze as soon as she heard about the Sanchez family's involvement. They had connections with nearly every hospital across North America, and it looked like they were covering the cost of Lewis's compensation.

If Lewis had been planning to quit, logically, he should've been the one to compensate the hospital. But thanks to Kailee's recent stunt, the hospital's payout had already hit Lewis's account just moments ago.

Lewis's face was all smiles, and he raised an eyebrow at Kailee's sour expression. "How about I treat you to dinner?" he offered, his voice teasingly light.

Coming to beg me now?" she taunted, trying to reclaim some control.

Lewis chuckled softly. "You're in my way."

Kailee's face flushed with anger, her fingers itching to strike him. "You Just you wait!"
