Chapter 1217
Chapter 1217:
That evening, Evie returned to the villa to see a Rolls-Royce parked out front. Her older brother was standing beside the car, waiting. A sudden wave of emotion welled up in Evie’s eyes, and she paused, taking a moment to compose herself.
“Andrew, why are you here?” she asked as she approached him, her bag in hand.
“Just checking up on you.” Andrew’s intense gaze mirrored his sister’s.
“Aren’t you going to invite me inside?”
This had always been their way. Evie quickly responded, “Of course I will! My dear brother, please, come inside!”
From the moment Andrew had arrived, he’d been watching her closely, though Evie gave nothing away. When they stepped inside, the warmth of the house eased some of his worries. The decorations had changed, giving the place a homier, more inviting feel.
They sat together, and Andrew fixed his gaze on Evie.
“No matter what happens, I’ll always be your strongest support. If anything’s troubling you, you need to tell me. You’re our family’s precious one. You don’t need to face everything on your own. Understand?”
Andrew’s words cut through to Evie’s heart. She felt her nose sting as tears welled up.
Laughing through the tears, she wiped her face with a tissue and nodded.
“Don’t worry, Andrew. I’ve got it. I’ll take care of myself…”
After her tears had subsided, Evie felt lighter. They shared a meal, and Evie gently urged Andrew to leave.
“Andrew, you don’t need to worry about me anymore. Go find Madisyn. I’ll be fine.”
“Alright.”
After seeing Andrew off, Evie felt a sudden clarity, as though pieces of a puzzle had fallen into place. She quickly grabbed her phone and sent a message to her agent.
“Alis, do you still have the contact details for the assistant you recommended to me? If it’s convenient, could you also help me find a reliable housekeeper? Thanks.”

At Madisyn’s villa, the swimming pool glistened under the harsh headlights of a car, the shadows of trees and flowers casting their fleeting forms onto the shimmering water.
Madisyn, submerged beneath the surface, caught sight of a figure standing by the pool’s edge. She crossed her legs and pushed herself through the water with her slender arms.
With a soft splash, she emerged like a mermaid, the water’s shimmering glow wrapping around her in an almost otherworldly aura. Bobbing in the water, she glanced up at Andrew and said, “You’re back. How is Evie?”
“She’s fine,” Andrew responded briefly, his eyes fixed on Madisyn as he described his meeting with Evie. He couldn’t tear his gaze away from her, and his voice became slightly hoarse.
“Are you cold?”
The temperature had dropped, but Madisyn shook her head lightly.
“Swimming is a sport, and the pool has a temperature control system. It’s not cold at all.”
Noticing Andrew still standing there, she swam a little closer, extending her hand with an inviting smile.
