Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482 

Was this really the end

After losing an innocent child and being left scarred and bruised, Max was about to marry someone else a perfect ending for him, while she had been nothing more than a passerby in his eyes from the very beginning

Brielle’s head was pounding with a headache that only seemed to fade when Aubree pushed her into the bathtub. In the warmth of the water, she felt like she was coming back to life, yet she made no other move and simply soaked in the hot embrace

Aubree stepped out of the bathroom and ordered some comfort food for delivery, then sat waiting for Brielle. Her eyes glanced at Brielle’s phone on the counter, which had turned off automaticallyprobably hadn’t been charged in days. She picked up the phone and plugged it in. After everything was set, she settled on the couch, waiting for Brielle to emerge

During that time, Andrew called. Aubree frowned upon seeing the flashing name and dismissed the call without a second thought.. 

Andrew dialed again. He wasn’t as heartless as he seemed. After being rejected once, twice, by the third call, Aubree gave in

What do you want?” 

Brielle’s out of jail?” 

Aubree let out a scoff, her lips curling with mockery, Yeah, no thanks to you, Mr. Big Shot.” 

Andrew seemed unaffected by her scorn; instead, he lounged back, one leg bent, clad only in a bathrobe revealing his tanned skin in a way that could set pulses racingif anyone were there to see it. Drying his hair, he asked casually, Are you upset?” 

Aubree’s eyes brimmed with tears. It was always this way with himslap you, then dangle a carrot in front of you. And she was already softening without even receiving that carrot yet

That was the terrifying thing about love. It ate at you like ants on an elephant, leaving even Aubree disgusted by her own pitiful state

No, it’s just your usual way. I’m used to it.” 

Andrew paused, sensing her tone, and sighed. Aubree, how long are you planning to stay out this time? If you’re going to forgive me eventually, why make a scene at all? Just come back. It’s cold, and I’m freezing alone in bed.” 

That was Andrew for youable to shrug off all of her heartache, regret, and sorrow with ease. But if Tessa so much as furrowed her brow, he’d move heaven and earth to make her happy. That was the difference between love and indifference

Aubree wanted to say she’d never return, but instead, she looked down. We’ll see.” Those words were probably the most hurtful thing she could muster

Andrew didn’t push further. I’ll be waiting for you. I haven’t changed the locks.” 

Aubree ended the call and slumped on the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling. She hadn’t slept well since Brielle’s incident. Now that Brielle was finally free, Aubree’s tension was released, and fatigue washed over her from all sides. Yawning, she dozed off at the edge of the sofa

Brielle spent an hour in the bath, and the house was quiet when she emerged. Aubree was asleep on the couch, her body slouched awkwardly

The air conditioning was off, so Brielle turned it on. She did not want Aubree to catch a cold and fetched a blanket to cover her

The food arrived. Brielle picked it up, noticing Aubree was still asleep. She had no appetite but warmed the food in pots anyway, so it’d be ready when Aubree woke
