Chapter 970:

After settling things at the hospital, Eric drove Hadley back to Millland Road. She remained quiet the entire ride. Silent, composed, and—very clearly—determined to avoid giving him the slightest excuse to kiss her again.

When they reached her apartment door, Eric lingered for a moment. “I’ll be heading to the hospital early tomorrow, so I won’t be able to pick you up,” he said. “But I’ll drop by the set in the evening.”

Hadley looked at him but said nothing. She knew better than to argue—when Eric had made up his mind, there was little use trying to sway him.

“Go on in.” He reached out and gently ruffled her hair.

“Get some rest,” he murmured. “And remember—stay focused on your role, don’t let people distract you… and stop adding random men on social media. Guys can be… bad news.”

At that, Hadley let out a soft, bitter laugh. The worst one of all was right in front of her.
