Too Late, Mr. Billionaire: You can’t afford me now
Chapter 784:
At that moment, a bus arrived, momentarily blocking her view. When it finally drove off, Astrid and Soren had vanished.
Taking a deep breath, Hadley slowly closed her eyes, sorting her chaotic thoughts.
Astrid and Soren were clearly involved romantically. But what about Denverâwasnât Astrid supposed to be dating him?
What about now?
Did they break up? Was Astrid now openly seeing Soren afterward? It seemed likely.
Yet another thought surfacedâwhat if Astrid had been deceiving Denver all along?
No, she couldnât just stand by and watch Denver be deceived!
Determined, Hadley pulled out her phone again, swiftly dialing Denverâs number.
âHello, Hadley,â Denver answered immediately, his familiar voice gentle, calm, and filled with warmth.
Hearing Denverâs familiar voice again caused a deep ache in Hadleyâs chest, her hands trembling involuntarily.
âDenver,â she murmured.
Denver let out a gentle chuckle, his tone lighthearted. âHadley, whatâs going on? Whyâd you suddenly decide to call me?â
âItâsâ¦â Hadley hesitated, biting her lip as she searched for the right words.
âDid something happen?â Denver prompted, noticing her unusual pause. Misinterpreting her silence, his voice instantly sharpened with worry. âDid Eric hurt you? Are you in danger?â

âNo, noânothing like thatâ¦â
Closing her eyes briefly to steady herself, Hadley asked with cautious uncertainty, âAre you still seeing Astrid?â
Secretly, she hoped to hear theyâd already parted ways. If that were the case, everything would be easier.
Yet Denver answered clearly and without hesitation, âYes, weâre still together.â Surprised by Hadleyâs sudden interest, he asked curiously, âBut Hadley, why are you asking me this?â
Hadley struggled silently, words trapped at the tip of her tongue, before finally blurting out decisively, âDenver, you shouldnât stay with Astrid any longer!â
âWhy?â Denver was startled by her blunt statement. Hadley wasnât the type to meddle in other peopleâs relationships.
A shadow crossed his expression as he asked, âDid you hear or see something I should know?â
âI did!â
Since sheâd already started, Hadley realized there was no turning back now. She had no clue how deeply Denver was invested in Astrid, nor how serious their relationship had become.
Still, someone like Astrid didnât deserve Denverâs genuine affection.
Denver deserved someone better than that.
âIâll send you a photo I took just now. Youâll understand once you see it.â
âAlrightâ¦â Denver responded uncertainly, clearly still puzzled.
