A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 965

Chapter 965 

Hailey, unable to leave, glared at him in anger and frustration. 

“What on earth are you trying to do?” 

Cedric grabbed a bottle of water from the side of the car, unscrewed the cap, dampened a tissue, and moved to press it onto Hailey, one hand holding her face. 

The other hand, holding the tissue, wiped it across Hailey’s red lips…. 

“Wipe it off, so there’s no other man’s scent left 

“Are you out of your mind?” 

Hailey turned her head, refusing to let Cedric wipe, but he held her chin, immobilizing her. 

Drunk Cedric, eyes bloodshot, strong handed, held onto her lips, wiping relentlessly. 

As if in this way, he could erase the traces left by Yeager, also erase the memories that almost drove him mad…. 

“Hailey, clean it off, then go back to me, okay?” 

At first, Hailey struggled, but upon hearing these words, her heart suddenly ached 

She raised her hand and gently touched Cedric’s face, and those tear–filled eyes. 

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for you to see…” 

She thought he had already left, but he was still there. 

If Hailey knew he was there, she would still reject Yeager 

When her hand touched her cheek, Cedric slightly lifted his head 

As if not wanting her to see his lowly emotions, but there was nowhere to hide in this narrow space. 

“How many times have you done it behind my back?” 

If the number was too many, could he still help her clean up? 

Hailey looked into his eyes and shook her head sincerely 

“Not many” 

Cedric’s tense body suddenly relaxed, then somewhat aggrievedly hugged Hailey, resting his chin on her shoulder. 

“Hailey, you’re not lying to me this time, are you?” 

“No…” 

He held her tightly, his cold cheek pressed against hers. 

“Then can we get back together?” 

Hailey, now calm, slightly turned her head to look at Cedric, begging like a child for candy 

“Cedric, you’re too late. I’ve already agreed to meet Yeager’s parents and promised to marry him.” 

Her voice sounded nice, but it also stung his heart. 

“Even if I tell you that I love you very much, want to marry you, is it too late?” 

He had only said he liked her before, never love. 

This was also the first time Hailey felt that he loved her in his heart, but it’s just too late. 

“It’s too late” 

She gently pushed Cedric away 

“I’ve been waiting for you to grow up. Many times, when I met you, I always hoped you could be less rude, because I have feelings too” 

His words of being fed up, never wanting to marry her in his lifetime, what does she count for, all hurt Hailey deeply 

‘Til change, I won’t say things that hurt you anymore, okay?” 

Cedric grabbed her hand, promising eagerly 

Cedric’s willingness to do anything for Hailey revolved around his desire for her to return to him. 

However, Hailey’s fears extended beyond just verbal harm. She was apprehensive about Cedric’s personality as well. Although he loved her now, she couldn’t shake the worry that he might fall in love with someone else in the future and abandon her, just as he had done to Norene. 

Having experienced abandonment before, Hailey was genuinely afraid of going through it again, especially if it were at the hands of Cedric. Despite her concerns, she reached out and gently touched Cedric’s face As her hand made contact, he tightly held onto it 

“Hailey, look at me. I have never pleaded with you like this Cedric implored, his desire to have her back evident in his words. He didn’t want to see her with Yeager or any -other man. He yearned to marry her, to keep her by his side, and to ensure that no one else would touch her as they had that day In Cedric’s mind, Hailey belonged to him 

and him alone. 

“I think, you might cheat, you know, I don’t have the courage to endure my husband’s infidelity again, 50. 

*No way!” 

Cedric’s eyes, so red that the original color was unclear, whether it was from alcohol or genuine emotion. 

“I won’t cheat, I promise you, I will only love you, for a lifetime…”
