The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 802

Madelyn repeated, "Thank you."

As Madelyn approached, the bodyguard who had been blocking Mya stepped aside. Mya eagerly embraced Madelyn, causing her to stagger. She pressed her face against Madelyn's shoulder, sobbing loudly.

"You were gone for so long, and you didn't even contact me. Did you know I almost died?" Mya asked, her voice serious.

Madelyn's gaze landed on the dark bruises on Mya's neck and back. Blake had filled her in. "I'm so sorry, Mya," Madelyn whispered, her voice laden with regret. "I wish I'd been here sooner."

Mya shook her head gently, "You're here now, and that's what matters. Plus, you brought gifts. I've forgiven you."

"Promise me you'll be careful. Don't let anyone hurt you."

"I promise. With you here, I feel protected."

"Why are you arresting me? Let me go!" a woman shouted.

"You said we'd have a good life, Luke. Look at us now!" another Graham yelled.

"Dad... Mom..." A young girl and a little boy from the Graham family followed, tears streaming down their faces.
