Chapter 757
“So…you’re not into me anymore?”
She said it so nonchalantly.
But that nonchalance hit Cedric right in the chest, making it hard for him to breathe.
Back then he was indeed afraid of his friends’ jokes, but he never once felt disgusted by her.
Even though she had a past, he was still willing to have her as his girlfriend.
But how could she just stop liking him because of all this?
Cedric was kinda thrown off. He lifted Hailey’s face.
“Hailey, let me tell you again, I never once cared about you being divorced. If I did, may I be struck down!”
His vow left Hailey at a loss for words.
It seemed like he said those words in an attempt to win her back.
He had plenty of women, why try to win her back?
Hailey didn’t think Cedric was doing this because he liked her.
Maybe he had a bit of a crush on her, after all, Hailey wasn’t clueless, she could feel it.
But it was more like a kid’s tantrum, his plaything of three years suddenly leaving him, he was bound to feel a bit lost.
Hailey knew Cedric well, if he treated her as a toy, he’d throw her away once he was bored.
Just like how he wooed Norene back, then dumped her a few days later.
Hailey was wounded, she didn’t dare to get hurt again, afraid she couldn’t bear it, also afraid once she fell in, she’d never get out.
After all, Cedric was different from Austin Zimmer, he was far superior than Austin. If she fell for him, she’d be done for…
Thinking of this, Hailey forced herself to stay calm, looking at Cedric.
“Cedric, your first love Hertha, she likes you more, you guys should get back together.”
Seeing Hailey reject him again, Cedric felt a knot in his stomach.
He was getting antsy, pulling her into his arms.
“Hailey, I’ll break up with her right away. Would you love me again? This time, I promise, I’ll introduce you to my friends, and even take you…” to meet my parents!
But before he could finish, Hailey pushed him away.
“Cedric, you forgot, I just accepted Dr. Yeager, I’m his girlfriend now.”
Cedric once said he liked to rekindle old flames, always trying to win back his exes when he ran into them, Hailey remembered this clearly.
He said so much to win her back, but she still rejected him.
After breaking up, it was always him begging to get back together, Hailey never…
And she had the nerve to say she once loved him, was that love? That was clearly cold-hearted.
He actually thought about introducing a woman like this to his parents, what a joke!
What was so special about Hailey that he should lower himself to take her to meet his parents?
Cedric stared at Hailey’s face for a while, then straightened up, taking a step back…
“Hailey, congratulations on finding a suitable partner. Allow me to wish you a happy life in advance.”
He said each word very slowly….
Hailey knew he was mocking her previous failed marriage, but she didn’t argue with him, just nodded.
“Thank you, I will definitely have a happy life!”
She firmly believed she wouldn’t be so unlucky again, to meet another partner who would betray her.
After saying this, Hailey didn’t wait to see Cedric’s reaction, turned around and walked towards Yeager Alis.
Cedric clenched his fists, staring at Hailey’s retreating figure, his heart aching unbearably.
The sense of loss was unbearable, he clenched his fist and punched the wall!
Chapter 757
His hand was soon blo ody, blood seeping out…
But this physical pain couldn’t suppress the pain in his heart, making him feel incredibly irritated, as if he wanted to vent his anger.

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...
