Madisyn stared at the screen, feeling at a loss.


    How could she exin to Evie that her rtionship with Andrew was still in its fragile beginnings?


    With a hesitant sigh, she typed her reply.


    “Andrew and I just got together recently…”


    Evie’s response was quick, her frustration evident.


    “So, my brother’s that ungrateful, huh? Okay, okay, I admit it’s my fault.


    Now, please help me!”


    Madisyn felt a pang of sympathy and quickly reassured her, “I’ll ask him to give you back your allowance.


    ”


    Evie’s mood shifted instantly.


    “Thank you so, so, so much, Madisyn!”


    But as Evie’s excitement faded, a realization dawned on her.


    Now that Madisyn was officially with Andrew, and given how well she and Madisyn got along, how could Andrew possibly continue to treat her harshly? Surely, he wouldn’t dare!


    Yes!


    Evie finally found a way to handle her big brother.


    For the next two days, Madisyn stayed home, spending quality time with her mother.


    On the third day, it was time for her to go.


    Her family apanied her to the airport, where ine held onto Madisyn’s hand, reluctant to let go.


    “Madisyn, take care of yourself out there.novelbin


    Give it your all, but if things get too tough, don’t hesitate toe home.


    Your father has enough money to support youfortably for a lifetime.


    ”


    Glenn nodded in agreement.


    “That’s right, Madisyn.


    Don’t overextend yourself.


    ”


    Madisyn smiled, touched by their concern.


    “I promise, Mom and Dad, I’ll take care of myself and won’t overwork myself.


    ”


    Dane, standing nearby, added with a serious tone, “Ansport is a big city with its ownplexities.


    Keep your wits about you.


    ”


    “I will, Dane,” Madisyn replied confidently.


    “The Johns Group has a solid branch there.


    If you run into any issues, don’t hesitate to reach out.


    I’ll be there soon myself.


    ”


    Madisyn gave a grateful nod, just as her phone began to ring.


    She nced at the screen-it was Waylon calling.


    She answered it.


    On the screen appeared Waylon’s handsome face, though his usual charm was shadowed by guilt.


    ““Madisyn, I’m so sorry I can’t be there to see you off.


    I feel like such a lousy brother.


    ”


    Dane, nearby, couldn’t resist a quip.


    “Well, at least you’re aware of it.


    ”


    Waylon, unfazed, quickly added, “Madisyn, to make it up to you, I’ll give you every penny I earn this time.


    ”


    Dane’s expression tightened, a hint of irritation shing across his face.


    Waylon always had a way of trying to steal the spotlight.
