hi, 1 piece of advice i would immediately give u is, please please do not take responsibility for him. or what he will do to himself. even if he takes the most drastic step, which seems a bit unlikely at such an early stage, but in any case. do not carry any guilt or responsibility for what that guy will do to himself if u do not oblige.
u obviously did the sensible thing, and whatever happens next has nothing to do with u. so please dont hold yourself responsible, or guilty for any consequences.
