Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 1186

King wore his heart on his sleeve, pouring his emotions into everything he did. When he liked something, it was as if every strand of his hair joined in chorus to express his feelings. The Lynches, especially Desiree, were no fools—they had weathered life's storms and could see right through him. But it was this raw honesty that endeared him to the older generation, who had grown weary of deceit and coldness over the years.

Desiree’s nod of approval was a big deal, and nobody dared to challenge it.

Brielle glanced at her grandmother, noticing a significant lift in her spirits, her eyes brimming with fondness for King. Somehow, Brielle felt her own nerves settling too.

Initially, stepping into the Lynch household for dinner had her on edge, but now she relaxed completely, even chatting with Raymond about the royal family's recent endeavors. His calm demeanor added to the cozy atmosphere.

After dinner, Sarah brought out a dessert that Desiree had perfected—a sweet concoction that had everyone cozying up on the couch. King couldn't stop praising it, showering Desiree with compliments that made her beam with pride.

Arthur, with a cold expression and a cynical laugh, proposed the Lynch family as the ideal scapegoat, citing their withdrawal from supporting North American educational initiatives as a breach of loyalty. However, the complication of the Lynch family's potential alliance through marriage with a Saudi entity meant navigating a delicate balance of international relations and internal strategy to maintain his reign.

The sudden appearance of Myles, a man marked by his experiences, in Arthur's strategy session underscored the dire lengths to which they were prepared to go to protect the royal family's interests, revealing the intricate web of alliances and enmities that underpinned their world.
