Another thought flickered through his mind. “Is it that photo? Does it bother you that Hadley once danced at
Galant?”
Eric could squash rumors about Hadley and Duran, pull the wool over the media's eyes, but Marshall knew the
truth. And if Marshall knew, so did Denver.
“You...” Eric hesitated, his brow lifting as if questioning Denver. “Do you think she has a shady past or

Denver's brow furrowed, but he said nothing, his silence ringing louder than words. Eric took it as a confession.
“You actually...” Eric's face paled, anger rising in him like a tidal wave. “You dare look down on Hadley? How

trust her. You scorn her.” He jabbed a finger at Denver, his jaw tight as a vice. “You're no prize yourself, Denver. |
gave you too much credit.”
His words dripped with disdain, cutting like a whip. “I wouldn't waste my fists on garbage like you.”
What good would dragging Denver to Hadley do now?

Eric dropped his arm and stormed off, fury trailing him like a shadow.
In the hospital, the nurse had just eased the IV needle from Hadley’s arm. Elissa held the cotton ball in place for
Hadley, gentle but firm.
Hadley offered a faint smile. “I can manage, you know...”
Elissa shot her a look, half-scolding, half-concerned. “You can manage, huh? A simple cold turned into a fever.
You've got to stop running yourself ragged and rest properly.”

As they neared the door, Hadley’s phone chimed, cutting through the quiet. It was a call from Denver.
“Hello?” Hadley paused, pressing the phone to her ear.
