Chapter 1376 Love in Hoh Xil (II)

• “So I have to let you go, Chad.” From Madison Sawyer’s voice, you could tell she was already crying—quiet tears as she spoke, steady but breaking. “I don’t want to. But either way, I can’t handle it. Even if you only go to see them, to be there for Finn, I’ll still worry. You and Samantha Wembley had feelings to begin with. What if, because you both care about Finn and spend time around him, you two slowly drift back together? I’m scared, Chad. I can’t live every day and night bracing for the pain of losing you. And asking you to be Finn’s father again? That’s even more impossible for me. I’d be facing more fear, more heartbreak. So, I might as well be generous, step back, and bless you and Samantha.”
• “Madison, don’t push me away, okay? Don’t say ‘give up’ at the very moment we love each other most, okay? When I went to Sokchov to find you, what did we say? No matter what comes, we face it together. No talk of giving up. And before that… we got through so much and still made it here. Why are you telling me to let go now?” Chadwick Fullner demanded, agonized. He couldn’t even tell when it happened—when the person he wanted to hold hands with for life became Madison. Now he was terrified of just one thing: that she’d leave.
• What Madison said was also completely impossible for him. Before, he hadn’t loved—or hadn’t loved Madison that much—so he could live properly with Samantha Wembley and Finn. But now he’d fallen for Madison, hard. If he went back to Samantha and Finn, how could he not think of Madison?
