Chapter 166 She Wanted Them Both
Weekend had come.
Standing near the entrance to Mayfield Road, Hadley waited patiently for Eric to come pick her up.
Tonight marked a special occasion–the entire Flynn family planned to attend her show.
They had a dinner arranged at Winterley Restaurant before the show, which started at 8:20 PM.
Within five minutes, Eric pulled up beside her.
Stepping out of the car, he seemed nervous as he inquired, “I didn’t make you wait too long, did I?”
“Not at all,” Hadley replied, shaking her head lightly as she slid into the car seat. “Honestly, I had nothing better to do, so I arrived early. I know you’re trying to be thoughtful, but you didn’t need to trouble yourself picking me up–I could’ve managed on my own.”
They had discussed this earlier over the phone, but Eric had dismissed the suggestion outright.
Now, upon hearing her repeat it, irritation crept into his expression.
Eric paused, holding onto the car
firmly as his frown deepened slightly. “Hadley, picking you up isn’t an
inconvenience. It’s something I genuinely want to do. Can’t you see that?”

Surely, as her boyfriend, offering her a ride his privilege and obligation, right?
Although Hadley sensed his irritation, she neither fully understood its source nor felt inclined to find out.
She offered a distracted nod, saying casually, “Yes, I get it.”
But did she really?
Eric doubted it but nonetheless shut the door after her and headed to Winterley Restaurant.
Inside the restaurant’s private dining area, Nyla and the rest of the Flynn family were already seated comfortably.
“Hadley, over here–sit next to me!”
Nyla beckoned eagerly, guiding Hadley to a seat next to her, with Linda on the other side. Ernest and Eric found spots slightly farther away.
“It feels wonderful to see you two finally together,” Nyla said warmly, visibly delighted at this turn of events. “We’re meant to be family, after all! Let’s celebrate this special night with delicious food.”
