Chapter 1245

Chapter 1245:

“Starting tomorrow, I’ll be away on business for an indefinite period. I apologize for the short notice, but it’s unavoidable.”

Andrew’s fingers intertwined with hers, his touch filled with tenderness. Despite the heaviness in her heart at the prospect of his departure, Madisyn chose to be supportive.

“I understand, darling. Go ahead—don’t worry about me.”

“Okay.”

Andrew’s gaze settled on Madisyn’s eyes, which had returned to normal. The memory of her recent brush with danger still tormented him, filling his heart with guilt and unease. Lilian’s existence posed a constant threat to Madisyn’s well-being, making her safety uncertain.

Using his connections, he’d managed to secure this cross-departmental mission. Though it came at a cost, Andrew harbored no regrets. His only sorrow lay in the impending separation from the person he treasured most.

A shadow of longing crossed Andrew’s features as he caressed Madisyn’s cheek, drinking in her presence. After a moment of silence, he continued, “Honey, since I won’t be here to protect you, I’d like to assign some bodyguards for your safety. It would give me peace of mind while I’m away. I couldn’t bear a repeat of what happened last time.”

Hearing the concern threading through Andrew’s words, Madisyn decided not to resist the suggestion.

“Okay, having bodyguards makes sense. Thank you for looking out for me, darling. While you’re away, let’s stay connected through phone calls.”

“Okay.”

Andrew didn’t mention his destination, and Madisyn didn’t pry. With separation looming tomorrow, they chose to savor their remaining hours together rather than dwell on the impending farewell. When morning arrived, Andrew departed, and Madisyn turned her attention to handling the Lilian situation alongside Jared.

Together, Jared and Lilian established a venture concerning Fisherman’s Cove. To better expose her misdeeds, Jared strategically maneuvered Lilian directly into the board of directors.

The board members, noting Jared and Lilian’s romantic relationship and mindful of Lilian’s influential backing, eagerly entrusted the project’s oversight to her.

Meanwhile, in Estresa, Andrew stepped off his flight and made his way to the local government office. Eaton Rachford, Estresa’s highest administrative executive, had anticipated his arrival. He stood waiting in the government office’s grand hall, dressed impeccably in formal attire.

Upon spotting Andrew approaching with credentials in hand, Eaton snapped to attention, greeting him with deference.

“Chief!”

Andrew acknowledged him with a curt nod before following him into his office.

Once inside, Andrew wasted no time on pleasantries.

“Have all the Perkins family files been prepared?”

Eaton was well aware of Andrew’s mission in Estresa: to eliminate the Perkins family, a festering wound in society’s fabric.
