Chapter 1479:
Like always, Eric took it upon himself to inspect things his way.
Trying to pry herself free, Hadley gave his arm a weak tug. Her cheeks burned as she said, “Could you please
take it easy?”
“Take it easy?” Eric looked pretty pleased with himself, arching his brow. “You really wantto go easy, even
with the door locked and no one else around? Unless you think | can’t handle it...”
Before he could finish, he closed the gap and pressed his lips to hers.
He slipped one hand behind her, supporting her back as he drew her in. Soon, his fingers found the tiny pearl
button at her neck and unfastened it.

down in a moment.”
When the call ended, she turned back to him. The look on his face now held nothing but wounded pride.

Hadley answered, “There's a brand event happening in Tidebourne. It’s an in-person thing.”

Eric looked at her with confusion, his brow furrowed. “Why am | just hearing about this?”
A laugh slipped out of Hadley. “Mr. Webster only toldthis afternoon. There wasn’t a chance to mention it.”
“So you're leaving tonight?”
“Yeah. | packed earlier.”
With such a short trip ahead, she hadn't needed to bring much.
Was she really heading out so soon?
Eric gave in with a sigh. “How long will you be away?”
