Chapter 2090:


    “Is that right?” Eric’s chuckle apanied a raised eyebrow. “Then she demonstrates excellent judgment! I retract my previous statements. I owe her an apology! She genuinely is an outstanding screenwriter!”


    “Haha…” Hadley found his dramatic reversal thoroughly entertaining. “You’re genuinely this ted?”


    “Naturally, I’m thrilled to receive recognition!”


    “Of course, you deserve this happiness.”


    Gazing into her star-bright eyes, Eric found himself reaching up to tenderly tousle her hair.


    “You should experience this joy daily…” He teased her gently. “Happy yet still weeping?”


    “I was simply overwhelmed with happiness!”


    “You’re alternating between tears andughter like a little child.”


    Moisture still clung to the corners of Hadley’s eyes. Eric leaned down carefully, employing his fingertips to delicately brush the tears away.


    Hadley spoke quickly in warning. “I’m wearing eye makeup today!”


    “I realize that,” Eric murmured gently, “I’m exercising caution… I won’t disturb it.”


    “Really, I’m fine…”


    “There, finished.” Eric ceased his movements, though his hand remained cradling her chin.

    Hadley cast a nce in her direction before instinctively seeking Eric’s face, though he appeared utterly oblivious to A’s existence. Upon noticing Hadley’s scrutiny, Eric’s fingers explored his face with bewilderment. “Why are you studying me like that? Does the rash still show?”


    “Good grief.” Hadley’sughter bubbled up as she shook her head. Whether he genuinely hadn’t noticed A remained uncertain, but she chose to leave the matter alone.


    The truth was, Eric and A had never shared any meaningful connection. Hadleypressed her lips thoughtfully. “The rash hasn’tpletely disappeared. Are you continuing with the ointment?”


    “Naturally, I am.”


    The pair continued their conversation with easyughter, preparing to walk past A. Hadley maintained her forward focus, though she sensed A’s burning stare boring into her.


    “Hadley!”
