Chapter 945:
“Nyla—" Linda stepped in quickly, taking hold of Nyla’s arm in an attempt to calm her. “Please, try to stay calm.
Eric... he went to find Hadley.”
“Find Hadley?” Nyla echoed, confused and annoyed. “Didn't she promiseshe'd look after him? He wakes up
and she leaves? Couldn’t she have humored him for a little longer?”
Just then, a voice called from the hallway. “They're back! Mr. Flynn and Miss Pearson just arrived!”
“Eric!” Nyla’s anger evaporated in an instant as she looked toward the door.
And there he was—Eric, holding Hadley’s hand, grinning like he’d just won the lottery.
Hadley, on the other hand, kept her head down, her eyes avoiding everyone in the room.
Seeing the contrast between them, Nyla felt a quiet ache in her chest. Her grandson's eyes were full of light—
completely taken with Hadley. But Hadley? She might not feel the same.
“Grandma,” Eric said, beaming. “Sorry | worried you.”
“Oh, so now you realize that?” Nyla huffed, glaring at him even as relief flooded her expression. “Get back in that
bed this instant! You just woke up and you're already playing hero?”

Eric was gently helped back into bed, and moments later, the doctor arrived. After a thorough check-up, he
nodded.

“Vitals are stable. His condition is generally good. However, he’s still weak and recovering. Since the injury
involved head trauma, | recommend we do another CT and MRI, just to be safe.”
“Please do what you need to,” Nyla said at once.
“Understood.”
As everyone bustled around him, Hadley remained quietly at the edge of the room, half-shadowed by the
doorframe. She hadn't said a word, hadn’t moved. But when she heard the doctor's assessment, she finally
exhaled—the tension in her shoulders easing ever so slightly.
He was safe. He was okay. And for now... there was still hope for Joy.
Hadley then turned to face Nyla, choosing her words with care. “It looks like everything's under control now... so
I think it's best if I head out soon.”
“Hadley...”
Nyla’s heart sank. She didn’t want her to leave—not when Eric was clinging to her like a lifeline. His attachment
was painfully obvious.
“Ouch!”
