NovelApexChapter 1032: "Enough," Hadley said sharply with a stern expression. "There's no need for apologies. If you're not going to clarify why you're here, then just leave. And don't bother coming back!" With that, she turned to walk away.
"Hadley! Wait!" Brady quickly moved to block her way.

I don't have any hidden agenda. I just..." He nervously ran his fingers through his hair. "Hadley, believe it or not, you've always been a real sister to me! When Dad mentioned you were back in Srixby, I thought I should cand see you..." "You've seennow," Hadley snapped, clearly annoyed. "You should leave!" "Hadley..." Brady's voice wavered, and he looked visibly shaken. "I'm sorry. Back when you needed help, I couldn't help you... But I've matured now! I can help you!" While he spoke, he pulled a business card from his pocket and extended it towards Hadley.
"This has my phone on it. Hadley, I'm not sure how things have been going for you in the Flynn family. If things aren't going well, or if Eric isn't treating you right, turn to me! I'm your brother. You have a family with the Jenkins too. I'll stand by you!" Hadley stopped in her tracks.
"Stand by me?" she sneered.
It felt like the world's biggest joke.
"Yes!" Brady nodded with a sheepish smile. "We might not have the influence the Flynn family has, but if you ever feel wronged or unhappy, know you at least have a place to be..." "What are you really after?" Hadley scrutinized Brady's face, as if trying to uncover his ulterior motives.
Then it hit her. "You saw the trending news and you're hoping to leverage my connection to the Flynn family for your own advantage, right?" "Hadley..." Brady stammered, shaking his head vigorously. "No, that's not it..." Discover where it all happens: gVlnovs"Don't even think about it," Hadley cut him off firmly.
Hadley was skeptical of everything he said. She gestured toward the door. "Leave! Now! Or I will call security!" As she said this, she picked up her phone.
"Hadley!" Seeing her firmness, Brady realized she meant business and started to panic. "Okay, okay, I'm leaving right away!" Before he walked out, he pushed the business card into her hand. “I'm serious. We owe you a lot. I want to make things right. I want you to have someone you can depend on, so you're not alone." With those final words, he gave her a meaningful look. "Hadley, I'm going now." Brady then left.
Hadley looked down at the business card in her hand, but didn't even consider going through it. She turned and tossed it into the nearest trash can. She didn't believe a single word Brady had said. There wasn't a single decent person in the Jenkins family!
They said the sins of the parents shouldn't be visited upon the children, but Hadley doubted that Cade and Noreen could produce a child who was any different. Astrid was proof enough. Unbeknownst to Hadley, her encounter with Brady had been covertly captured and posted online.
Hadley had not yet made her official debut in the entertainment industry, as her first project was still under production. But she had already caught the media's eye because of the viral social media post with Eric, which made headlines. In recent days, she had turned into a minor point of public fascination.
