Chapter 1105
Halley helped Cedric into the underground parking lot, opened the car door, hoisted him into the passenger seat, buckled him up, walked around the car hood, and slid into
the driver’s seat.
Before starting the car, Hailey turned to look at Cedric who was pressing his head in pain, “What’s your home address?”
Cedric owned a private villa in B City, but he never brought Halley there when they were a thing, so she didn’t know the place at all
Cedric, with his eyes shul, handed over his phone to her, “Open the GPS, the address is there”
He then added. “The password is your birthday.”
Hailey’s hand trembled slightly as she took the phone. Back when they were still daling, she had once asked Cedric to set her birthday as his phone password. But Cedric, being the stubbom mule that he was, always refused And now, two years after their break–up, he had set her birthday as the password
Frowning. Hailey unlocked the phone, opened the GPS, found the address, and headed for Cedric’s villa in B City.
Cedric, with one hand propping his forehead, didn’t dare to look at her and just kept glancing at the rearview mirror. After dozens of glances, he opened the glove compartment, pulled out a black bank card and handed it to her
“This card is yours”
He had given her a card with unlimited credit before. She had returned it after they broke up, and now he was giving it back to her, presumably to pay for the expenses at the hotel
“No need. I have money”
If there was one thing she didn’t lack at the moment, it was money.
Cedric knew she didn’t need money, but he still stuffed the card into her bag. “Just in case”
The truth was, Hailey had never used his money or his cards during all the time they were together. At most, she just kept them for him.
She gave Cedric a glance, wanting to say something, but he had closed his eyes again, so she kept quiet.
The car soon stopped in front of the villa. The butler at the door saw someone helping Cedric out of the car and immediately came to assist, but was met with a glare from Cedric and quickly stopped
The butler got the hint and pretended as if he hadn’t seen anything. By the time Hailey had brought Cedric back to his room, there was no sign of the butler or any other
staff.
“Why don’t you hire any housekeepers?”
“I don’t live here often, no need for housekeepers.”
If there were housekeepers, she could just hand Cedric over to them and leave.
She left her coat on the back of the sofa and turned to look at Cedric
“You sure you can handle this on your own?”
Cedric, already seated on the sofa, had both hands pressing on his forehead.
“At least make me a hangover soup”
He looked so miserable, couldn’t she take care of him a bit before leaving?
Seeing his pitiful state, Hailey finally turned to go to the kitchen.
Through the glass, Cedric watched Haitey bustling around in the kitchen. A smile gradually appeared on his face as he reclined on the sofa.
Hailey cooked some soup and placed it in front of Cedric Pretending to be too weak to lift the spoon, Cedric had Hailey feed him. She patiently scooped up a spoonful of soup and fed him
However, Cedric took his sweet time, having the soup bit by bit. It took him half an hour to finish the bowl of soup.
By the time Hailey put down the soup bowl, her wrist was stiff. As she was massaging her wrist, a large hand reached over to gently rub it for her.
Hailey fell silent for a moment, then pushed Cedric’s hand away, picked up her bag, and prepared to leave. “You rest up, I’m heading out.”

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
