“Got the jitters?”
Max’s voice came through the phone with a chill that was like an invisible hand, steadying
a racing heart
“Nah, I just know he’s joking.”
Max’s eyebrow arched, his lips curling into a slight smirk, “Andrew never jokes”
Brielle’s breathing hitched a bit as she felt Kenzo’s gaze turn more meaningful. She just
wanted to end the call as soon as possible “Uncle Max, you needed me for something?”
“Yeah, get ready. You’re joining me on a business trip tonight.”
Brielle thought she’d misheard, but when it came to work, she straightened up, all
business. “What time tonight?”
“Flight’s at ten. Patrick will pick you up.
That settled it for Brielle, she couldn’t say no to Max. She handed the phone back to

words, and left.
After she was gone, Kenzo put his phone down and turned to Andrew.
“Little Canary?”
The gentle smile was gone, replaced by an unreadable expression.

“Nothing special. Max will keep her close for a few days.”
Kenzo’s eyes narrowed slightly, a spark of interest flickering in them. Max, keeping a
woman close?
Whatever the reason, Brielle was now a threat to Alivia’s future. Kenzo smirked at the
thought of the drama that would unfold.

Tiffanie, on the side, really didn’t want to stand with two men like this. It would affect her
upcoming hunting. She made a quick excuse and slipped into the dance floor, eyes peeled
for her target: a top-tier celebrity rumored to be there tonight.
Meanwhile, Brielle returned to her apartment, clueless about where the business trip
would take her or for how long.
She packed a couple of outfits and, after a moment’s thought, applied a touch of makeup.
Then she grabbed all the documents she could carry, and by seven, Patrick’s car pulled up
downstairs.
Brielle slid into the car and immediately noticed Max, sitting quietly with his eyes closed,
head resting against a custom headrest, looking every bit the picture of weary nobility.
She moved more gently, not wanting to disturb him, then leaned forward to ask Patrick in
a low voice.
“Where are we headed?”
“Ms. Brielle, you’ll see when we get there.”
Reading the room, Brielle fell silent.

household was in an uproar because Faith had shown up in person to scorn them and call
off the engagement.
