Chapter 135 Couldn’t Let It

Go

Unlocking her phone, Hadley immediately looked at Denver’s latest message.

“Hadley, I’m here managing everything at home. It’s fine if you’re not ready.to talk, I’m not going anywhere and I’ll wait until you’re ready.*

Closing her eyes briefly, Hadley was moved by Denver’s commitment, yet it also filled her with sadness.

Why did he remain so hopeful about them?

She then navigated away from Denver’s message. It was one she found herself unable to answer.

Ignoring his texts might eventually lead him to stop trying at all.

She felt that cutting off contact now would be the kindest thing to do.

Taking a deep sigh, she checked on the message from Eric.

“Hadley, I just Denver. Everything alright?”

Her brow creased with confusion as she read.

How did he see Denver? Wasn’t he supposed to have dropped her off and just left? Could he have returned?

And for what reason would he return?

There was an additional message from Eric waiting for her.

“I found your hair tie in my car. I went back to return it.”

That explained the situation.

Feeling her wrist, Hadley noticed her hair tie was indeed missing.

She began typing a response.

“Don’t worry about it. It’s just a hair tie. Feel free to throw it away.”

Meanwhile, Eric sat in his car near the Mayfield Road, the maroon hair tie with small white beads in hand.

Puzzled by her response, he looked at the hair tie and muttered to himself, “She really doesn’t want it back?”

He grabbed his phone to text back.

“I’m nearby, so dropping it off won’t be a bother.”

Hadley saw his message and responded quickly.
