Chapter 345: Meanwhile, inside Brian's office, Tracy's eyes shimmered with unshed tears, looking as if the slightest movement would make them spill over. She wore an expression of pure grievance as she said, "Brian, I'm so sorry. I know my presence is causing problems. Rachel doesn't wanthere... she doesn't wantnear you. After everything that happened today, maybe it's best if I leave on my own." Brian's voice sharpened with frustration. "Leave? And then what? Where exactly do you think you'll go?" Tracy didn't know what to say. The truth was, her family had already abandoned her. The gap between them seemed impossible to fix. They had no intention of forgiving her, and she wasn't about to lower herself to beg for their kindness.

Their silence spoke volumes—they must despise her. And going back abroad? That would only be a different kind of prison. Tracy bit her lip, looking vulnerable. "If it comes to that, I'll just go back abroad. I can take care of myself." Brian's expression darkened. "Back abroad? Have you seriously forgotten what that man did to you? You'd be walking right into danger again." Brian exhaled heavily. "You can't rely on luck forever. And I won't always be there to pull you out of trouble." "I know," she whispered. Tears welled up in her eyes, spilling over before she could stop them. "But I can't stay. I'm just a burden to you. I admit I hit Miss Carpenter first, and that was wrong, but she didn't just let it go-she fought back, she made things worse for me." Her voice broke, and she couldn't get another word out. However, Brian's tone softened as he asked, "Are you upset withfor not standing up for you?" "I wouldn't dare," she murmured.
He let out a quiet sigh and explained everything to her. When he finished, she slowly lifted her head, her gaze clearer than before. "I'm sorry, Brian. I misunderstood you. You were doing everything for my sake, and instead, I blamed you. This is all on me." Overcwith emotion, she suddenly lunged forward, wrapping her arms tightly around him. Brian's hand lifted instinctively, ready to push her away, but when he saw the tears streaming down her face, a wave of sympathy washed over him. So, for a moment, he let her be.
After a short pause, he gently pulled away. "Now that you understand everything, just be careful with what you say and do from now on." See all ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐ ☐☐☐☐ ☐☐ glnovo m "Okay." Tracy nodded eagerly. "I'm sorry. I won't fight with Miss Carpenter anymore, and I won't make things hard for you again." "You don't need to go out of your way to avoid her-just keep your distance and stay out of trouble." "Got it." Tracy walked out of the office looking lighter, almost cheerful. But Brian? His mind was still tangled in Rachel's words, his heart weighed down by a quiet, lingering heaviness.
