Chapter 80
Andrew kissed Madelyn and assured her, “Don’t worry. He’s not capable of that.”
“You shouldn’t let your guard down,” Madelyn reminded. Andrew chuckled and carried her to the bed.
Before falling asleep, Madelyn asked, “Have you not packed your luggage?”
Amused by her concerns, Andrew chuckled and replied, “Are you trying to be a motherly figure, darling?”
“Stop joking!”
Madelyn squirmed in his embrace, attempting to sit up and help him pack. However, Andrew quickly pressed her head back down.
“Everything is already packed,” he said.
“Oh!” Madelyn calmed down.
She was a changed woman. In the past, Andrew’s affairs couldn’t
have interested her less. Now, she wanted to know every detail of his
life.
Holding her close, Andrew felt greatly satisfied. “Stay away from Easton while I’m gone.”
“I never looked for him,” Madelyn retorted. Easton was the one who
kept showing up.
“Good girl.”
A few days had changed everything. Andrew’s lingering doubts had been replaced by a newfound trust in Madelyn.

Andrew woke up at 5:00 am. Although he tried to be as quiet as possible, he still woke Madelyn up.
She looked at him groggily and asked, “Why are you up so early?”
Fully dressed, Andrew sat beside Madelyn and gently touched her face. “Did I wake you up?”
“I’m still so sleepy!”
Madelyn suffered from iron deficiency anemia and required good- quality sleep. If she didn’t rest well, she would feel lethargic the next day.
Andrew kissed her cheek gently. “You can continue sleeping. I’m heading out.”
“I want to see you off.”
It was just a casual remark, as she couldn’t get up just yet.
There was a brief silence before Carrie’s jealous tone came through. It’s great to have someone taking care of you, but you need to get up now.”
