“Break up?”

Andrew’s grip on Madisyn’s hand tightened suddenly.

She winced at the pain and looked up into his dark eyes, swirling with a mix of obsession and extremism.

“You want to break up with me?”

“You think I’m different from what you expected.

” “You want to break up because of that?” Andrew’s stare penetrated Madisyn, laden with unexpected emotional turbulence.

It was the first time Madisyn had witnessed such a fervent display from him, and it left her adrift in uncertainty.

Had she been the one to say something wrong? Hadn’t Andrew expressed his dissatisfaction first?

Andrew’s beautiful eyes, mow tinged with red, searched hers desperately.

“Is it because I failed to protect you that you want to break up with me?”

Madisyn’s heart faltered with confusion.

That wasn’t the case.

Everything seemed so misaligned from her initial thoughts.

Madisyn noticed Andrew radiating a palpable aura of hostility, as if teetering on the edge of an outburst.

She swiftly withdrew her hand and questioned, “Andrew, didn’t you replace me too violent?”

“When did I ever say you were violent?”

“Then what were you implying just now?” Madisyn’s gaze was clouded with confusion.

Andrew took a deep breath, his lips pressed firmly together before he spoke.

“You’re incredibly independent, much different from what I have envisioned.

But as your boyfriend, it’s my responsibility to ensure your safety, not to have you settle matters with your own hands.

He uttered the last words with a deep sense of self-reproach.

Andrew continued, “From now on, I’ll arrange for some bodyguards for you.

“Don’t,” Madisyn interjected sharply.

“I don’t need bodyguards tailing me.

Besides, I’m perfectly fine.

I can protect myself.

When Madisyn realized what was really on Andrew’s mind, a small ache inside her morphed into a tinge of bitterness.

With softened eyes, she reassured him, “I really am okay.

Don’t burden yourself with guilt.

The most fundamental aspect of living is being able to protect oneself.

Andrew’s dark eyes lingered on her, his expression still etched with unyielding concern.

“I’m just afraid you’ll get hurt.

“But I’m not hurt, am I? Don’t worry.

I’m strong.

” Madisyn smiled reassuringly.

Hearing her assertiveness, Andrew felt a deeper pang of heartache, realizing the resilience she must have developed over time.

Many people at her age were still nestled under the protective wings of their parents.

“Alright, I respect your decision,” Andrew agreed softly.

Madisyn continued, “And since you’ve returned to Ansport, please stop traveling back and forth to see me all the time.

Andrew was momentarily stunned, not expecting Madisyn to be aware of his frequent trips.

“It’s exhausting for you,” Madisyn said with a hint of helplessness.

“I have family here.

If there are problems I can’t handle, Dane will take care of them.

You don’t need to worry about me constantly, okay?”
