Chapter 910:
“One moment, please hold.”
There was a brief pause as the line went quiet, save for the distant sounds of the embassy office. Soon, the
phone was handed over.
Linda’s voice cthrough, shaky and urgent. “Eric!”
“Linda. I'm here,” he said quickly, trying to keep his tone steady.
“You're okay now. No one’s going to hurt you.”
“Yes, | know.”
“Good.” Eric's focus sharpened as he pressed on. “Who broke into your place? Did you see anyone?”
“They were from Srixby!” Linda didn’t hesitate. “I woke up to noises in the house. And before they left, one of
them said they had a message for you.”
“What message?”
“They said you're really good at hiding.” Her voice shook. “Eric... do you think they've figured it out?”
Realization dawned on Eric—it had to be the Scott family. They couldn't reach him, so they went after Linda

The Scotts were relentless, willing to harm anyone, even their own, to get what they wanted. Eric cursed himself
for involving Linda in his troubles.
“Linda, I'm going to cover as soon as | can to bring you back home. Until then, stay close to the embassy
and contact the police if anything feels wrong. Can you do that?”
“Alright!”

With Christmas just days away, the film crew scheduled one final table reading before the post-holiday shoot
officially kicked off. Once the session wrapped, people began filtering out of the conference room.
“Mr. Flynn.”
“Hello, Mr. Flynn.”
At the conference room doorway, Eric flashed a smile at everyone greeting him and bidding him farewell.
Hadley, clutching her bag, noticed him but quickly looked away and sped up.
“Hadley!” Eric swiftly made his way through the crowd to catch up with her, looking down at her with a grin.
“What's the rush? You didn’t even notice me?”
Feeling cornered, Hadley responded truthfully, “I did see you. That's exactly why | sped up.”
“Ouch.” He laughed under his breath. “Con. The car's waiting out front. If we take too long, the traffic
officers will be on us.”
He gently ushered her towards the car, and they set off for Millland Road.
Hadley reclined in her seat, silently observing the scenery flickering past.

shouldn't she?” CRpReeows

“Yeah.” Hadley murmured, her voice low.
