FreeNovelChapter 578 “This ‘little souvenir’ is from Max, and if you don’t believe me, go and ask him yourself. He and | connect on a soul level. You? You're just his fling, a flash in the pan. When you used those cheap tricks to snag him, you sealed the deal on a relationship that’s skin-deep at best. It’s only a matter of tbefore he gets sick of you.” After Alivia spat out her venomous words, she wanted to bask in Brielle’s breakdown, but Brielle was way too composed, which made Alivia look like a complete fool. She couldn't believe Brielle didn’t care at all. She must've been pretending, right? Of course, what she had said was a lie. Max was always guarded around women, so how could he have let her get that close? She made up the whole thing, knowing Brielle wouldn't bother to check the story with Max. As long as it wasn’t verified, it might as well be true.

Brielle even unbuttoned the top button of her blouse, revealing a dusting of pink marks underneath. “Max bit you, Ms. Alivia? That must've hurt. He wouldn't dream of being so rough with me.” Her words were a low blow. Brielle was repulsed by her own pettiness after saying it.

[x] Shaking with anger and not knowing how to respond, Alivia was snapped back to reality by Martha's voice from inside the room. “Alivia, if you're here, con in. Why waste ttalking to nobodies?” Alivia, struggling to keep her composure and not fall apart on the spot, shot Brielle a hateful glare, took a deep breath, and walked inside with a forced smile.
Brielle stood still, overhearing Martha's voice again. “Alivia, letlook at you; have you lost weight? I told the doctors not to worry you about my condition. You've got your hands full with work. | hear the institute has started to accept applications?” “Martha, no matter how busy I am, I'll always make tto see you.” Martha's face was all smiles, trying to dispel the gloom Max had brought her.

Max and | need to finish our conversation. Remember, don’t waste your tchatting with the riff-raff outside.” Alivia nodded, her eyes still red but her face composed. “Max, I'll step out.” Max gave a noncommittal grunt, clearly not interested in further dialogue.
