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
there, witnessing the moment.
Eric’s expression stiffened, his complexion turning pale as his grip on Linda’s arm unconsciously tighte
Hadley? What was she doing here?
Hadley was the first to shake off the shock, her body snapping into motion as she spun around to flee.
Why was she running?
Did she see him as some kind of dreadful specter lurking in the dark?

Before Linda could respond, Eric was already striding down the hallway, his long legs effortlessly closing the distance between him and Hadley.

Hadley found herself trapped, her back pressed flat against the cold wall.

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!”
