Master of his heart (Max and Brielle)
Chapter 1031

Brielle felt a sudden tightness in her chest and rubbed it gently before deciding to visit King's villa once more. But her car had barely left when it stalled at a crossroads, for reasons unknown. As she got out, intending to call for help, another vehicle pulled up in front of her. The passenger, a blonde woman with striking blue eyes, greeted Brielle warmly in English and even got her name right. Brielle was surprised but figured the foreigner's enthusiasm was due to the recent news frenzy about the Lynch family replaceing their lost princess. Anyone who followed the news would recognize her.

They chatted for a bit. "Congratulations, you've become even more beautiful."

Brielle didn't dwell on the compliment, responding kindly, "Thank you, you're quite stunning yourself."

The woman offered to help, but Brielle gestured that assistance was already on its way, and the woman drove off. Brielle remained there, somewhat overwhelmed by the stranger's warmth.

In the departing car, the blonde woman turned to her boyfriend. "I wonder if she and her boyfriend have split up. I mean, she only attended our college for a few days before switching to online classes. As an exchange student, exceeding three online courses usually means failure, but after just a few days, she did just that and only came in for the exams. She always wore a scarf, and when someone accidentally pulled it off, we saw the love bites her boyfriend left."

Sexual openness is common in the West, and I remember people joking about her boyfriend being too passionate, but her face turned pale as if struck by some misfortune. She quickly gathered her things and left, never to be seen at the school again. But Brielle's beauty was so striking, even among a crowd of attractive women, she stood out. Her unique charm and the popular exotic elegance made her seem like she stepped out of a painting; every move she made was captivating.

From her first day in class, many

guys wanted to add her on

WhatsApp, but she coldly declined, mentioning she was engaged back home. Even bold proposals for a fling were ignored. Who would have thought the distant Australian beauty was the diamond company's princess?

The blonde woman teased her boyfriend, "Didn't you write her a love letter once?"

Her boyfriend, hands tight on the steering wheel, felt embarrassed by the memory. "The night I wrote that letter, I was nearly beaten to a pulp by some mysterious men, warning me to stay away from her."

"It must have been her boyfriend's doing, too possessive and always watching her closely."

The couple laughed, reminiscing

about the past. But Brielle was oblivious to these stories. She thought the warm greeting was just because of the news stories online. After waiting a while, someone came to fix her car.

An hour later, she was back on the road. Arriving at the villa, there were no guards outside, and the iron gate was closed, leaving Brielle with no way in. But as before, a car drove in, its windows down. She saw that beautiful woman again, the same as last time. Brielle couldn't help but remember Kenzo's words about Max once imprisoning a beautiful woman in a castle, who had also borne a child.

"Did Max take to you so quickly because he sees the shadow of someone else in you?"
