Too Late, Mr. Billionaire: You can’t afford me now
Chapter 363:
Hadley hesitated. âIâm⦠not sure yet.â
Blancheâs tone softened, but it remained firm. âHereâs what youâre gonna do.â With a casual flick of her wrist, she continued, âGo back and finish your final scene, and then? Return to what you truly love. The lead dancer role is still yours for the taking.â
Wait, what?
What did Blanche just say?
Hadley stood stock-still, her face void of expression.
Such disbelief gripped her that it seemed entirely unreal.
âCould you repeat that?â Hadley gasped, her voice quivering.
Blanche chuckled lightly.
Shaking her head, Blanche said, âYou have one opportunity. Would you rather keep your career in showbiz or return to your first love, dancing?â
âOh, I would absolutely adore that!â
Overcome with enthusiasm, Hadleyâs cheeks turned a bright shade of red as her words tumbled out hastily.
âI mean, Ms. Nicolson, itâs dancing I want to return to! Itâs my dream to dance alongside you!â
Her mind began to regain focus.
Excitement pounded in her heart, and tears of joy started to brim in her eyes.
âMs. Nicolson, I apologize, Iâm just so thrilled!â

Never had she imagined that she might get the chance to rejoin the dance troupe or that Blanche would personally seek her out!
âMs. Nicolson, Iâm truly grateful for this opportunity.â Hadley expressed with heartfelt appreciation.
Her joy was unmistakable.
Despite previous missteps, Blanche could tell that Hadleyâs passion and skill in dance were undeniable.
Choosing the disciplined life of a dancer over the sparkling world of showbiz was uncommon for young and beautiful girls like Hadley. The allure of the entertainment industry, with its promise of fame and fortune, often proved irresistible.
Blanche, satisfied, waved off the gratitude. âNo need for that.â The real gratitude, she thought, should go to Eric instead.
Yet, she withheld this because Eric had wished to remain anonymous. Blanche pondered why Eric preferred to keep his good deeds a secret, but it was not her place to question.
âI must be going now,â Blanche said. Rising from her seat, she instructed, âReport to me at the studio tomorrow morning.â
âUnderstood, Ms. Nicolson! Take care,â Hadley called out as she watched her leave.
With Blanche gone, Hadley felt a surge of exhilaration. She hurried off to share the news with Elvin.
âMr. Webster, I must apologize. It seems the entertainment world isnât the right fit for me. After today, I wonât be returning.â
âDo you really mean that?â
Elvin was puzzled, unable to grasp her sudden change of heart.
âIndeed, Iâve given it a lot of thought, Mr. Webster. Dancing aligns better with who I am.â With sincerity, Hadley said, âIâm rejoining the dance troupe.â
