“Wait!” Hadley called out, pushing Eric away and quickly wiping her eyes.
Phillips turned back with an awkward smile.
She gave a small frown. “Has the caregiver arrived?”
“Not yet...” Phillips hesitated, glancing at Eric. “It’s late, and since this caregiver will be staying with Mr. Scott

situation.”
“Then...” Hadley gestured to the bodyguard behind him. “What about him?”
“Well...” Phillips admitted, “I thought maybe he could stay with Mr. Scott tonight. Just for tonight.”
“That's unnecessary.” Before Hadley could speak, Eric cut in with a scowl, eyeing the bodyguard. “I don’t need a

“Get back here!” Eric pressed a hand to his forehead, exasperated.
“Yes, Mr. Scott.” The bodyguard halted immediately. “What is it?”
Eric pointed toward the door, frustration written all over his face. “Get out.”
“I can’t do that.” The bodyguard shook his head. “Miss Pearson said you're not to be left alone.”
He lowered his voice. “If you wantgone, you'll have to tell her yourself.”
