Ernest’s expression flickered between surprise and concern.

Denver felt a little out of place.
“Alright, alright.” Linda gave Ernest’s hand a reassuring pat. “You don’t have to worry. Nyla already gave Denver her approval, so there’s nothing to be concerned about.”

“Got it,” said Denver with a nod. “I understand.”
He met Ernest’s gaze. “You can rest easy. My feelings for Hadley are genuine, and I’ll make sure she’s happy.” Ernest seemed to relax a little, though a slight crease remained between his brows.

But there was no point in overthinking it.
Ernest was now awake, and that was what mattered the most.
And the truth about the past would have to wait until he had fully recovered.
“Let’s go.”
“Yeah.”
