A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1191

Chapter 1191

At the party, Cedric was playing it cool and keeping everyone in suspense, refusing to spill the beans about who he was marrying.

This drove everyone nuts and they kept plying him with booze. It wasn't until he was very drunk that Cedric finally told them about marrying Hailey.

His buddies all knew Hailey, and when they heard Cedric was tying the knot with her, they were gobsmacked. They thought Cedric had lost his mind, planning to marry a woman who was older than him and had once dumped him. They tried to talk some sense into him, reminding him that there were plenty of fish in the sea, and hoped he wouldnt do something he'd regret.

Cedric, despite being drunk, understood their words and got pissed.

He kicked over a chair and started ranting and raving at his friends, nearly throwing punches.

If it hadn't been for Chase holding him back, he would've definitely punched those guys who were badmouthing Hailey.

After cussing them out, Cedric found the whole scene meaningless.

He grabbed his jacket and wobbled out.

Chase was bummed out and didn't follow. He just sat in the corner, drowning his sorrows alone with a bunch of friends.

Cedric, feeling woozy, staggered out of the private room and bumped into Hertha.

Hertha seemed to be waiting for him on purpose. She didn't seem surprised when she saw him come out and even approached him.

"Cedric, I heard you're getting hitched?" Hertha looked up at Cedric, a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Cedric squinted at the person in front of him, his vision blurry. The figure in front of him doubled and then merged back into one. He couldn't make out who she was, only that she was a woman.

He was engaged now and should keep his distance from other women. So he just sidestepped Hertha and staggered down the corridor.

He was so unsteady on his feet that he almost fell. Hertha quickly supported him.

"Let go of me; Cedric said.

He didn't want to get too close to other women. Hailey wouldn't like it. He had only Hailey in his mind and pushed Hertha away.

Hertha was shoved aside, watching Cedric's swaying figure. Her beautifully made-up face gradually darkened.

Cedric had long deleted her from his contacts. She couldn't see the news of Cedric’s engagement, but she knew Cedric's friends.

She had learned from a friend yesterday that Cedric had announced his engagement. She had guessed who Cedric was going to marry.

Thinking of what she couldn't get but Hailey had easily obtained, Hertha was so angry that she was shaking all over. She couldn't help but follow Cedric.
