Master of his heart ( Brielle And Max ) novel Chapter 1002

Dustin turned and spotted her, a flash of disgust crossing his face.

Back in Beaconsfield, Alivia had already hinted at wanting to be the lady of Infinity Brilliance, Dustin’s empire. The fact that the research institute had come under fire because of her was a minor detail to him; after all, losing money wasn’t really a big deal in his world.

But when she showed up at his grandma’s, he knew she had ulterior motives. Yet, seeing his grandma perk up after her arrival, he couldn't be bothered to intervene. Let her be, he thought; she couldn’t really turn the sky upside down.

However, bullying a member of the Lynch family on their own turf was like signing one’s death warrant. He signaled to a nearby bodyguard.

“Throw her out. And make sure she’s banned from any event hosted by the Lynch family from now on.”

It turned out tonight’s gala was indeed hosted by the Lynch family. Well, it made sense; the Lynches were big in the diamond trade, often rubbing shoulders with international celebrities. Every star seemed desperate for an endorsement from the Lynch family.

Alivia's pupils shrunk; her legs gave out beneath her, unable to stand. Being thrown out by the Lynch family—what did that mean for her? Given the Lynch family’s standing in North America, she was effectively blacklisted, doomed to never grace a public event again.

How could this happen? She couldn’t believe this was her end!

But the bodyguard showed no mercy, grabbing her by the arms and dragging her outside.

“No! Please, no!”

Her struggles were in vain; her hair was a tangled mess as she glared venomously at Brielle. If looks could kill, Brielle would have died a thousand deaths by now.

In this moment, Alivia realized how foolish she had been, dreaming of being recognized as Desiree's adopted granddaughter, not realizing the Lynch family already knew Brielle was one of their own. Her appearance at the nursing home was nothing but a cruel joke!

The humiliation was too much for Alivia; tears streamed down her face. Back in Beaconsfield, she had believed in a possible comeback, as long as she could secure the backing of the Lynch family, taking down Brielle would be easy. But the very support she craved turned out to be Brielle's family. She became the joke of the century.
