Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel 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.
