Chapter 419

Chapter 419:

Hadley, keen to avoid causing any disturbance, grabbed the orange juice without understanding the insistence behind it and drank it swiftly.

“Is that enough?” she questioned after finishing the drink.

“Absolutely.” Alita smirked, one eyebrow arching in amusement. “You’re really generous!”

As Alita turned aside, a cunning smile flickered across her face, her eyes twinkling with mischief.

Blanche happened to look their way just as the incident concluded.

The woman accompanying her was Stella, Barrie’s mother.

Stella gestured towards Hadley as she asked,

“Isn’t she the one Mr. Flynn asked you to look after?”

“Yes, that’s her,” Blanche confirmed with a smile, her tone implying approval.

“She possesses considerable talent. I have no doubt she’ll become a leading figure in this troupe.”

“Really?” Stella expressed her relief and contentment.

“That’s excellent news. Now, let’s eat. I’m quite hungry.”

“Let’s go.”

Late into the night…

“Ugh… mm…”

The unsettling sounds abruptly woke Elissa, sending a chill down her spine. She flicked on the light and saw Hadley in a fetal position on the bed, gripping her blanket tightly.

The source of the moaning was unmistakably Hadley.

“Hadley!”

Elissa sprang from her bed and hastened to her friend’s side.

“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”

Sweating profusely, Hadley gripped her abdomen and then bolted for the bathroom.

She had been feeling sick for some time. Unbeknownst to Elissa, Hadley had already made numerous trips to the bathroom before.

Now, all that remained were the relentless cramps wracking her stomach.

“Hadley, I’m coming in.”

With concern mounting, Elissa opened the bathroom door and extended a towel to her.

“Is it stomach trouble?”

“Yes.” Hadley managed a weak nod, her face flushed with embarrassment.

“Please, give me some privacy.”

“What’s there to be embarrassed about?” Elissa could tell Hadley was genuinely sick.

“You didn’t choose to be sick. Tell me how you’re really feeling.”

Hadley tried to brush it off as nothing, but the pain was too sharp.

“It’s pretty bad… My stomach is killing me.”

Elissa’s concern deepened.

“You shouldn’t ignore this.” She got up decisively. “I’ll check with the hotel for some medicine.”
