Chapter 105 Being Completely Ignored

The atmosphere crackled with tension, thick and volatile.

Hadley’s nerves were on edge, sensing an imminent explosion.

“Looking for trouble, are you?” Eric’s voice cut through the air.

Without hesitation, he delivered a fierce punch that sent Denver tumbling to the ground.

“Denver!” Hadley’s shout was a mix of anger and concern.

Focused entirely on their confrontation, Eric and Denver paid no heed to her cries.

Denver quickly recovered, retaliating with a strong punch aimed at Eric.

The impact made a resounding thud.

In the chaos, Hadley couldn’t tell where Denver’s punch had landed–nor did she care, to be honest. The fight escalated quickly, with both men exchanging a flurry of punches and kicks. Hadley’s eyes stayed locked on Denver, fear gripping her at the thought of him getting seriously hurt. She didn’t know the first thing about fighting, but it was clear he was starting to struggle.

After a fierce struggle, a low grunt escaped Denver as he was forcefully pinned to the ground by Eric.

“Trying to steal her from me?”

A wild, almost untamed glint flickered in Eric’s eyes–something Hadley had never seen in him before.

“You’re begging for trouble!”

To Hadley, Eric was unrecognizable, transformed into someone horrible.

As Eric drew back his fist once more, fear gripped Hadley, she was terrified he might kill Denver.

“Stop!”

Driven by fear, Hadley sprang forward, shielding Denver with her own body.

Eric’s fist froze, quivering as he battled the impulse to strike.

“Move away from him!”

His voice was harsh, teeth clenched in anger.

“I won’t!”
