Chapter 790
Hailey was taken aback when she unexpectedly spotted Cedric Laurence in her line of sight. Mixed emotions swided within her, but she reminded herself that she was now with Yeager
Yeager enveloped her in a comforting hug before opening an umbrella to shield her from the rain. With his assistance, he guided her into the car and drove her to the villa
As Hailey stepped out of the car, she bid farewell to Yeager from the front of the villa Just as she was about to enter, Yeager called out to her, causing her to pause.
“Hailey.”
Yeager, appearing slightly bashful, took a step closer to her after uttering her name
Curious, Hailey tilted her head up to meet his gaze Usually Yeager would depart after dropping her off. What made this instance different?
Yeagerbent his head to look at Hailey’s tempting red lips. He blushed, wanting to kiss her but not knowing how to broach the subject.
They were both experienced in love. The expectation in Yeager’s eyes made it clear to Hailey what he wanted. But…
It felt a bit too soon for her. But they were adults, not exactly young anymore, so this progress wasn’t really that quick.
But for some reason, she felt it was too soon. She felt a sort of resistance, afraid to kiss Yeager or take things further
Unaware of what was going on in Hailey’s mind, Yeager just mustered up the courage to ask her in a low voice,
“Can I kiss you?”
He asked directly, no beating around the bush, but his face was a bright shade of red.
Hailey looked at Yeager’s face, even his ears were red. It was as if she could see his heart pounding
That kind of nervousness that was usually associated with youth, Yeager was displaying it right in front of her.
He looked like a pure–hearted high school boy…
Seeing Yeager like this, Hailey suddenly clenched her hands….
“Yeager, do you like me, or do you just think I’m marriage material?”
Usually, blind date prospects are people suitable for marriage, hence the further development. But Yeager gave her a different feeling….
Yeager looked at Hailey’s beautiful face, swallowed hard in nervousness
“I like you”
Even his eyelashes were trembling as he said this.
“When we were in school, I…I liked you already…”
He recalled the moment she jumped down from the school wall, landing on him.
At that moment, he felt incredibly happy
But back then, Yeager didn’t know that it was love at first sight.
All he knew was that besides studying, he often thought of her.
He even dreamt countless times of her running late, panting as she ran up to him.

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...
