Chapter 145 Let Destiny

Take Its Course

Hadley was back on her feet by the afternoon.

She felt significantly better, prompting Elissa to handle her discharge documents. “Are you sure you want to leave? Maybe they should keep you under observation a bit longer?”

“We’re in an observation room,” Hadley replied with a laugh. “I think I’ve been observed enough. The doctor said I should just continue with some medications and I’d be fine.”

“Okay, I’ll finalize everything.”

“Let’s head out together. I hardly brought anything with me.”

“Sounds good.”

Once they completed the discharge process, they treated themselves to a taxi ride back to the hotel.

During the ride, Elissa said, “Ms. Nicolson considers this a work–related incident, so the studio will cover all the costs.”

“That’s a relief.”

They smiled at each other as they got into the taxi.

Despite the relentless rain outside, Elissa couldn’t help but ponder. “This whole thing was just odd. You didn’t eat anything out of the ordinary, right?”

Considering food poisoning was a common cause, and Hadley’s issue had escalated to gastritis, it remained a puzzle.

Puzzled, Hadley asked, “Did you grab my phone by any chance?”

“Got it right here.”

Elissa retrieved the phone from her purse and handed it over.

“Appreciate it.”

Accepting her phone, Hadley decided it was time to unblock Denver as she promised. From now on, she resolved to handle things as they came and let destiny take its course.

She was about to set the phone aside when it buzzed with a new message.

Denver had sent a text.

“Am I off your blacklist now, Hadley?”

A smile broke across her face. She wondered how many attempts he had made before this one finally got through.

She replied, “You are, Mr. Moran.”

Denver’s reply came almost instantly.

“I can’t tell you how glad that makes me!”

Following his text, a meme appeared, depicting a little character jumping joyously.
