Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 716

Chapter 716 

Andrew’s head was buried in Aubree’s neck, and he felt as if his whole body were floating, empty of substance. 

His eyes blazed with a searing agony. 

“Aubree.” 

Tm sorry. 

His arms encircled Aubree, his knobby hands loosened their grip feebly, his throat was choked up, and tears fell onto her skin. 

Aubree just stood there, motionless, on his wedding night. With his wife’s horified gaze upon them, he begged Aubree humbly to stay. It struck Aubree as funny, but she couldn’t muster a single laugh. 

She remembered the day and moment her gaze first landed on him. Back then, she hadn’t realized this man would become her greatest joy and her deepest despair, 

Maybe that was just life, spending ages in confusion, investing in the wrong things, only to grow in a few fleeting moments. “Happy wedding day” She said calmly, then pushed past him and walked toward the door. 

Tessa, clad in her bridal gown, felt icy cold and a buzzing in her ears. She wanted to scream in terror and slap Aubree across the face. but she was drained of all strength, like a clown excluded from the show, watching Andrew clutch at Aubree with earnest eyes.

Aubree felt the wetness on her neck, probably soaking through her clothes. She never knew Andrew’s tears could be so plentiful. Suddenly, Aubree felt like crying too, though she probably ran out of tears because nothing came. She only felt a heavy, oppressive 

sadness 

Taking a deep breath, she felt as if she were about to break Andrew’s fingers to push him away. She said nothing, just walked past Tessa and descended the stairs. 

Tessa stood frozen against the wall, unable to move, as if all her senses had been stripped away, offering no reaction at all. Perhaps when one was utterly hopeless, that was the expression they wore. 

The sound of Andrew’s sorrowful crying reached her ears like a knife carving at her heart. Andrew had never cried for her, and she had never seen this side of him 

With Aubree gone, Andrew slowly sank to the floor, hands covering his face, shoulders shaking, and ragged sobs escaping through his fingers. 

Tessa felt an immense pain so acute she thought she might die. It was her wedding night, she was married to the man she wanted most, and it should have been a joyous return to spend the evening. She even prepared her body meticulously, but what she returned to was this scene. 

Now Aubree was gone, not even sparing her a glance. 

ly pitied her, allowing her to have this marriage. 

Tessa felt a deep sense of humiliation, as if Aubree had merely
