Chapter 1324:
Hadley didn’t bother replying. There was no point in answering a question with an obvious answer. She kept
walking and headed straight inside.
Eric's eyes dimmed, and he trailed behind her with a bitter smile.
Inside, Hadley’s eyes landed on Elissa, sitting alone on a bench with her shoulders slumped and eyes vacant.
She hurried over and sat beside her.
“Elissa! What happened? Why are you here?”
Still shaken, Elissa answered, “Mrs. Flynn askedif | was getting a divorce.”
Hadley blinked, momentarily stunned. But the pieces clicked together quickly enough. She reached out and held
Elissa’s hand. “Don’t overthink it. This isn’t your fault...”
Elissa turned to her, eyes wide with confusion and fear. “But—"
“Of course it's your fault!”
The voice rang out like a slap. All three of them turned at once.
It was Linda.
She sat in a wheelchair just a few steps away, her face stiff and unreadable. She had dismissed her caregiver
and wheeled herself forward, eyes locked onto Elissa with a chilling stare.
“What did you say?” Elissa blinked, stunned. She couldn't understand why she was suddenly being blamed.
“Didn’t you hear me? Or are you just playing dumb?” Linda sneered, her laughter laced with mockery. “You're the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmarried woman shamelessly clinging to Ernest. Nyla got upset because of you!”
Elissa’s body tensed up.
“Linda!” Hadley stepped in, snapping, “Why did Nyla suddenly find out about this? It was you, wasn’t it? You
were the one who told her! You're the reason why she’s upset, not Elissa!”
Upon hearing this, Linda burst out laughing as if Hadley had told a joke. “Oh, that’s hilarious!”
The next second, her tone dropped, and her sharp eyes swept over both of them like a blade.
“Yes, | told her. But Hadley, you really think this is on me? You should be ashamed of yourself.”

She then turned her glare back to Elissa. “Tell me. Are you married or not? Did | make things up?”
Elissa’s face went pale. She opened her mouth, but no words cout.
“Stop twisting the truth, Linda! Yes,
Elissa’s married. But Ernest has
known that from the beginning. He
knows the situation better than
anyone!” Hadley did not hold back,
defendin her friend ‘Bt because
pipe rather wait for Elissa to
get divorced than even look your way,
you held a grudge. You deliberately
provoked Nyla, hoping she'd get
upset. What did you expect? That
making her sick would turn Ernest
against Elissa? Keep dreaming.
Ernest isn't naive. He'll see right
through your scheme. And when he
does, he'll hold you accountable.

“Hadley, what the hell did you—"
“Linda!” Eric angrily stepped forward and shook his head at her.
“That's enough. This is a hospital, not a place for arguments.”
“What?” Linda blinked, caught off
guard. Then, she let out a bittey m
