Chapter 1193:

Madisyn had not expected such a reaction from Andrew. Not only did Andrew fail to find her request strange or overly controlling, but he actually seemed… pleased? Did he really enjoy her being so clingy and dictating his time?

The realization felt like uncovering a hidden side of Andrew. Hearing him confess that he missed her every day when they were apart didn’t make her want to encourage him to focus on work. Instead, it brought her a quiet, indescribable joy.

It was a secret kind of happiness, as though she had stumbled upon a treasure no one else could see. She felt like the luckiest person alive, free to be completely herself around him, cherishing a truth she kept tucked away in her heart.

Madisyn wore an obedient smile, but inwardly, she marveled at how the post Susan had sent her had worked like magic. She couldn’t help but wonder which love expert had come up with such advice.

After saying goodbye to Andrew, Madisyn strolled through the lobby of Edge Entertainment, her fingers lightly typing out a text to Susan with feedback on her advice. When she looked up, her gaze fell on Evie. It had been a while since she last saw her, and now, Evie’s usually radiant smile seemed to have dimmed. She looked noticeably thinner.

“Evie,” Madisyn called out, her voice tinged with concern.

She scanned Evie from head to toe before asking with evident confusion, “Have you been dealing with something lately? You don’t look like you’re in the best shape.”

Evie had just arrived at the office from home. Normally, she would’ve been thrilled to run into Madisyn. But today, seeing her brought an unwelcome reminder of Waylon. She wondered uneasily if he had left her house yet.

Evie quickly adjusted her expression, attempting to appear as usual.

“Oh, I’ve been fine. It’s trendy to be slim these days—it looks better on camera.”

“But you already looked fantastic on camera before. Being too thin isn’t healthy,” Madisyn countered gently.

“You’re a singer, not a model. You don’t need to push yourself so hard. You should focus on being happy—like the little princess of the entertainment world!”

“Thank you, Madisyn. You’re always so kind to me.”

A flicker of warmth crossed Evie’s heart. But her gratitude only solidified her resolve. Nothing more could happen between her and Waylon. It would turn everything into a…

Mess. Waylon was Madisyn’s brother, after all. If Madisyn ever found out about what happened last night…

Evie dared not let her thoughts wander further. She already had her own misgivings about love and marriage; she wasn’t cut out for family life. Waylon was a wonderful man—he deserved happiness, just not with her.

Lost in thought, she completely missed what Madisyn said next.

Madisyn, noticing her daze, waved a hand in front of her face, and Evie finally snapped back to attention.

“Sorry, Madisyn. What did you say?”

Madisyn sighed lightly.
