Chapter 21 Falling Into His
Arms
“What?”
A gasp escaped Hadley, her shock was evident. The courthouse had already shut its doors?
She hadn’t planned this delay. Despite walking miles in search of a taxi, it was only near downtown that she managed to hail one.
Yet, she still arrived late.
Suddenly, darkness enveloped her vision.
Despite her struggle to maintain her balance, Hadley’s legs gave way. Her eyes closed as she fell forward. directly towards Eric.
He barely managed to catch her, stumbling as her weight pressed into his arms.
“Hey!”
Surprised, Eric’s hands reflexively supported her.
“Hadley!”
His voice was sharp, his frustration evident as he uttered her name.
She had vowed to stop playing tricks, yet here she was, literally collapsing into his arms. Anger surged within Eric, convinced that this was just another one of Hadley’s typical maneuvers.
She had to have timed her tardiness today deliberately!
“Hadley, stand up this instant!”
Yet, there was no reaction from the figure limp in his arms.
A sense of urgency crept into Eric’s voice. “Hadley? Can you hear me? Wake up!”
But Hadley remained unresponsive.
“I swear,
if
you don’t get up, I’ll…”
Eric began to push her away, but halted abruptly. Observing her ashen face, he realized she wasn’t pretending. she had genuinely lost consciousness.
“Hadley! What’s happened to you?”
Panic seized Eric.
