"It is," Eric confirmed with a slight chuckle. "What else can I do? Should I waste my days longing for her? She's not worth that much." Nyla acknowledged his point with a nod. "Alright, Eric. It seems you never had deep feelings for Hadley. Perhaps you're simply bothered that she now prefers someone else." Startled by her suggestion, Eric reflected.

"Is that so? Grandma, are you suggesting that my feelings for Hadley are just because... she chose someone else over me?" Nyla gave a serious nod. "Yes, I believe that's the case. If not, why haven't you shown any interest in her over these years?" Eric stood speechless, taken aback.

"Twill heal this, and you'll be fine. Unlike you, Denver has a genuine affection for Hadley." Continuing her thoughts with a sigh, Nyla added, “I do hope they stay together. It would mean that all the care I've put into raising Hadley wasn't for nothing, and I'd fulfill the promise I made to her grandmother." Later that night, the warm streams of the shower washed over Eric's scarred back as he stood there, eyes shut. The echo of Nyla's words lingered in his head.

"You've never truly loved Hadley." "You're simply bothered that she now prefers someone else." "If not, why haven't you shown any interest in her over these years?" Reflecting on her words, he muttered internally, "Could that be true?" "Yes, that's it exactly. There's no other explanation." It was the weekend, and Eric wasn't expecting any company.

Descending the stairs, he halted in surprise at the sight of Hadley conversing with Nyla.

"Eric?" Nyla gestured for him to ccloser as he approached. "Good timing. We need to talk about something important." "What's on your mind?" Eric, settling into the couch, began to peel a tangerine from the nearby fruit platter.

Nyla wasted no time. "It's tyou and Hadley arranged a date to officially finalize your divorce."

Eric's actions paused mid-peel. His eyes shot up, connecting with m Hadley's Could this be the reason for her early morning visit?

Hadley, catching his gaze, nodded gently. In a soft voice, she said, "Yes, as I've agreed with Nyla. I'm moving forward with my life with Denver, so we need to finalize our divorce, Eric."

"Agreed." Nyla was quick to stress the urgency. "We must handle this swiftly. If the Moran family learns the divorce hasn't been finalized, it could lead to complications!" She fixed a stern gaze on Eric. "Decide on a date today, Eric. I won't forgive you if you jeopardize Hadley's future!"
