Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) -
Chapter 1107
Aubree had rocketed to A-list celebrity status, and her days were a whirlwind of photoshoots, film sets, and endless interviews.
Andrew was equally swamped with his growing responsibilities at the company. Yet, whenever he found a spare moment, he'd come here, standing guard like a loyal sentinel.
After smoking a few cigarettes, his eyes naturally scanned the area and landed on a woman sitting on the steps nearby. But unless it was Aubree, he didn't give anyone a second glance.
This spot was a busy crossroads, often swarming with talent scouts searching for the next big star. In just half an hour, several people had approached the woman. She was tall, with long legs, stunning features, and a sun-kissed tan-a look that was all the rage. To the scouts, she was a goldmine waiting to be discovered. With a bit of grooming, she'd be the talk of the town!
But Emma had only one concern: replaceing Dustin. Without a photo, she clung to his name as her only clue. She didn't even know how to describe his captivating "peach blossom" eyes, unaware of the term altogether.
The scouts, realizing she wasn't interested in their offers, left with sighs of disappointment. Emma sank back into despair, especially as nightfall approached and she had nowhere to stay. The idea of spending the night on a park bench, pregnant, was unbearable.
In her growing panic, she finally noticed a man standing not too far away. There was something about his aura that reminded her of Dustin; it was indescribably unique, definitely not ordinary.
Her eyes lit up with hope, and she hurried over.
"Hey, do you happen to know Dustin?" she asked, her voice tinged with desperation.
Andrew had been waiting there for two hours without a hint of impatience. At the mention of Dustin, he sized up the woman. Was she talking about the Dustin he knew?
"Dustin Lynch from Infinity Brilliance?"
Emma had no idea what Infinity Brilliance was; she was just looking for Dustin.
"The guy with the really handsome face, especially those beautiful eyes. Oh, and he's looking for his sister too."
Breathing a sigh of relief at remembering this crucial detail, Emma felt a bit more at ease.
Andrew flicked the ash from his cigarette, contemplating. Dustin indeed had a striking appearance and was searching for his sister, Brielle. Their saga was still a hot topic in the media, thanks to Infinity Brilliance. "Yeah, I know him. What about it?" he replied nonchalantly, tossing his cigarette butt into a nearby trash can. Aubree would be finishing up soon. He couldn't afford to keep chatting, lest he be seen and misunderstood. Even though Aubree hardly cared about his companions these days, Andrew still felt the need to maintain some semblance of decency.
"Really? You know him?" Emma's face brightened, a weight seemingly lifted from her shoulders. "Thank goodness."
"Are you looking for him for a reason?" Andrew's tone remained neutral, his gaze already drifting towards the approaching figure of Aubree. "Well, the thing is, I'm pregnant with his child, and I..."
It wasn't that Emma lacked shame
in confessing this to a stranger. She was simply desperate, needing to return to her hometown soon and running low on funds. Finding Dustin was imperative, so she laid out her reasons all at once.
Andrew nearly choked on his own saliva, disbelief painting his features. Dustin, notorious for his flirtations, had never been known to father child with any of his exes. Had he been sowing wild oats everywhere, he'd have enough kids to form a soccer team by now. So, was this woman delusional?
Indeed, who wouldn't want to claim a connection with Dustin? Probably just a deranged woman, Andrew thought.
Hearing her claim, Andrew briefly entertained the chaos within before deciding to ignore her, as Aubree had emerged. Rushing towards her, his voice grew husky, his demeanor instantly humbled. "Aubree."
Aubree, used to Andrew's presence, raised an eyebrow at the sight of another woman by his side.
"I don't know her. She must've escaped from some psych ward."
Emma, realizing they were talking about her, quickly retorted.
"I'm not crazy. I really am pregnant, and I..."
Aubree's gaze narrowed, and without another word, she quickened her pace.
Andrew, stunned to replace himself at a disadvantage over a stranger, turned back incredulously. Emma, sensing his formidable presence, stepped back.
"I'm sorry, but I really need to replace
Dustin." Driven by desperation, she had shamelessly disclosed her predicament. Her eyes brimming
with tears against the darkening sky, despair washed over her.
At that moment, Andrew strode towards her, seizing Aubree's wrist. Aubree's eyes flashed coldly.
"Let go."
"It's not my kid. I don't even know her. She's looking for Dustin! Claims the kid's his. Can you believe that?" Aubree froze, her gaze shifting back to Emma.
