Chapter 1524:
“As you wish...” Eric’s lips protruded slightly in an exaggerated display of disappointment, yet his considerable
height advantage allowed him to effortlessly extend upward, pluck the object from its perch, and present it to
her with a self-satisfied grin.
“Here you go. A rose for the lady,” he said with a flourish.
Hadley found herself holding yet another rose. She blinked in surprise. “What in the world is going on?”
Eric shrugged, but then his finger shot out, pointing ahead. “Look! There's another light!”
Sure enough, another point of light glowed in the distance.
Her forehead creased with suspicion. “Is there skind of event happening around here?”
“Want to go take a look?” Eric inclined his head toward the flickering light.
Hadley paused for a moment and then nodded. “Alright, let's go. | want to see if these lights just keep popping
up.”
A subtle smile touched Eric's lips. “Alright, I'll accompany you.” He took her hand, and together they followed the
luminous trail.

“What is it?” Concern etched Eric's features.
“It's nothing...” Hadley rubbed her elbow, scratching the spot. “Just a mosquito bite.”
Eric relaxed, but then his finger pointed forward once more. “There's another light!”
He took Hadley’s hand, ready to continue their trek.
“Let's not,” Hadley protested, tugging on his arm and anchoring herself. “I want to go back now.”
“Why not?” Eric asked, a hint of confusion in his voice. “Weren't you enjoying yourself?”
