Chapter 229
Andrew’s face darkened in an instant, and he spoke with a chilling tone. “What did you
say?”
It was then that Tiffanie realized she wasn’t speaking to Max, but to Andrew. She swiftly
thought to hang up, but considering Brielle’s situation, she knew she couldn’t afford any
delays.
“Aren’t you? If you weren’t backing Tessa, would she be so bold? I’m telling you, if
anything happens to Brielle, Maxie won’t let you off the hook.”
Andrew felt like his chest was about to explode, his teeth clenched tightly, “Tiffanie, who
do you think you’re talking to?”
“I’m not afraid of you like everyone else. Pass the phone to Maxie. I need to discuss
Brielle’s matter with him.”
But Andrew hung up abruptly, leaving her with a headache from the frustration. Tiffanie
tried to call again only to find she had been blocked. A sharp glint passed through her
eyes. This Andrew, he had crossed the line.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe then called Patrick, succinctly conveying the possibility that Brielle was having
troubles. with the Rowlands. Patrick didn’t dare delay and immediately contacted Max. By
this time, Max had already come back from the balcony, his phone gripped tightly in his
hand. And right on cue, Patrick’s call came through.
“Mr. Dorsey. Tiffanie reports that Ms. Brielle upset Tessa and Tessa passed out, and now
Ms. Brielle’s phone is unreachable. I’ve already had someone trace Ms. Brielle’s cell, but
the signal is being jammed.”
Max’s brow furrowed deeply, and he instantly turned toward Andrew.
Andrew was casually leaning back, legs crossed. Noticing Max’s gaze, he looked up with a
smirk.
“Andrew, is Brielle with the Rowlands?”
Andrew raised an eyebrow, leaning back further, “Yes, she must have gone through a
round of punishment by now.”
The moment his words fell, Max grasped the collar of his shirt. Their distance closed
abruptly. and it was the first time Andrew had been treated this way by Max, the air
between them growing thin.
The other heirs in the vicinity had never seen the two in such a tense stand–off. Everyone
knew how close they were, so what was happening now?
Kenzo quickly stepped forward, placing a hand on Max’s wrist. “Max, let’s talk this out.”
Max’s gaze was
icy as he released Andrew’s collar and strode out the door. Andrew adjusted his collar and
followed.

Kenzo, seeing things escalate, quickly tried to ease the tension with a smile to the others.
“Everyone, please, let’s stay calm. I’ll go up and check on them.”
In the presence of these three big shots, the others didn’t dare to speak up.
Kenzo saw Max getting into his car, with Andrew following suit in his own vehicle. After a
moment’s thought, Kenzo tapped on Max’s window, but Max floored the accelerator,
leaving Kenzo in a cloud of exhaust.
Standing still, Kenzo then turned to knock on Andrew’s window. The window rolled down,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrevealing Andrew’s frosty face, “What?” His tone was unfriendly; he was clearly irate.
Kenzo couldn’t help but chuckle as he opened the door and slid into the passenger seat.
“Your guys are grown men, still acting like kids throwing tantrums?”
Andrew gripped the steering wheel, unable to hold back his complaints. “Wasn’t it him
who threw a fit first? He himself said he doesn’t like Brielle, so what’s wrong with teaching
her a lesson for deliberately knocking out Tessa today? Plus, it was out of consideration for
him that I asked the Rowlands to go easy on her; otherwise, knowing their nature, Brielle
would already be dead.”
Andrew hit the gas, heading towards the Rowland estate. “Kenzo, you know Tessa is my
life. Today she was rushed to the ER, and I couldn’t even ask the doctors how she’s doing.
I’m just so afraid that something would happen to him. Her health has always been fragile
over the years; sometimes I have nightmares that she’s suddenly gone. Brielle knew her
condition and still pulled this stunt. What does she take the Rowlands for, and what does
she take me for? Without Max backing her, she wouldn’t dare be so reckless.”
The more Andrew talked, the angrier he got, his eyes flashing sharply. “She wants to use
Max to break into our circle, but in the end, she’s just a clown.”
