"We'll be getting married soon. We need to start planning and tell Grandma. When do you think we should do it? I'll take your cue." He'd take her cue? Hadley's eyebrow arched, her inner thoughts tinged with irony. Eric was always trying to have it both ways!

Hadley started to rise, but Eric gestured for her to remain seated. "Stay here, I'll handle this." He saw it as the perfect chance to strengthen his bond with his daughter.
Eric quickly made his way into the room.
Meanwhile, Hadley pursed her lips, deep in thought. Could it really be that Elissa and Ernest would ctogether? Eric seemed to believe that Ernest harbored feelings for Elissa. But what about Elissa? Did she reciprocate Ernest's feelings?

Inside the room, Joy was sitting up in bed, her hair tousled, seemingly still caught in a dream, sobbing with her eyes shut. "Waaah..." "Joy."
