Master of his heart (Max and Brielle)
Chapter 1573

Andrew felt his whole body seize up. Just a moment ago, he was on cloud nine, but now, it felt like he'd crashed right into the depths of despair. The words that followed were even more crushing than Aubree's blunt rejection. She wanted to wipe it all away, pretend none of it ever happened.

What was he supposed to do now? How could he even react?

Almost without thinking, he wanted to confront her, but Matthew suddenly found the strength to hold him back, locking him in a tight grip.

"Andrew, you heard her. She wants you to let go," Matthew said firmly, leaving Andrew speechless.

Despair, helplessness, embarrassment, vulnerability-every emotion coursed through him as he stood there, rooted to the spot, watching them walk away.

Suddenly, all his energy drained out of him; he realized he'd lost any right to pursue her. He knew better than anyone how much that incident meant to Aubree. But she was ready to let go, to cut ties completely.

As the realization hit, Andrew couldn't help but collapse to the ground, his hands covering his face as his shoulders shook with silent sobs.

A crowd had gathered, witnessing the drama unfold. It was clear now: Andrew had lost.

No one dared to approach, knowing too well Andrew's temper and cold demeanor. Soon, the onlookers began to disperse.

With this, the news about Aubree and Matthew's relationship was all but confirmed, though their fans were still in the dark.

Online whispers hinted at what was happening, but it quickly stirred fans' discontent. Everyone admired Aubree's talent and hoped she'd focus on her career rather than get caught up in personal drama. Aubree, still unconscious, was blissfully unaware she had become the hot topic of conversation.

Matthew, however, was a constant presence by her side, his grip on her hand unyielding, a testament to his dedication.

In her dreams, Aubree felt the reassuring grip on her hand, a comforting reminder of being needed.

She wanted to speak, to say something, but she was too weak.

It wasn't until the next afternoon that Aubree finally woke up.

Matthew's response was cold and decisive; he involved the police, had a medical report drawn up, and ensured the woman was blacklisted in the entertainment industry

Despite being only eighteen, Matthew's actions as the CEO of the entertainment company were swift and ruthless.

The woman's brother even reached out, trying to patch things up, but Matthew, having reached his breaking point, refused to engage.

After dealing with everything, Matthew was there when Aubree woke up.

"Aubree!" His voice cracked with emotion, his eyes filled with tears as he clutched her hand, damp with nervous sweat.

Worried she might find the sweat off-putting, he quickly grabbed a wet wipe and gently cleaned each of her fingers. Tears welled up in Aubree's eyes too, and she opened her arms, pulling him into a hug.

Matthew stiffened for a moment before relaxing into her embrace.

"You scared me to death," he confessed, his voice trembling.

Aubree felt the same fear, still shaken by what had happened.

Matthew recounted the ordeal and his decisive actions, his voice firm, "I won't let her get away with this."

Aubree initially wanted to speak up, maybe to caution him, but remembering her own close call, she chose silence.

Matthew, having vented his anger, now held her close, his body trembling with fear.

"Don't trust too easily, learn from this," he advised.

Aubree nodded, her heart heavy and her eyes moist, a silent agreement between them.
