Chapter 37 It’s Time To
Move On
Hadley stood rooted to the spot, her gaze fixed on the duo entangled in what seemed to be an intimate
embrace. Were they about to kiss?
“Oh no!” Hadley cursed silently.
Eric faced her directly, while Linda remained oblivious, her back turned. She had no idea Hadley was standing

Hadley was the first to shake off the shock, her body snapping into motion as she spun around to flee.

Hadley found herself trapped, her back pressed flat against the cold wall.
Eric braced his hands on either side of her, effectively caging her in. “Why are you running? Do I terrify you
that much?”
Hadley swallowed hard. To her, he was far more fearsome than any monster conjured from childhood
nightmares.
Shrinking away to avoid the accidental brush of his arm, she clasped her hands together and pleaded, “Please, just let me go! I didn’t mean to interrupt you two!”
