A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 811

“Ms. Vulpe, Mr. Yeager” 

Chapter 811 

Chase approached them with a relaxed stride, offering a casual greeting before delving straight into the matter at hand. 

“Hello there, I’m Cedric’s lawyer, here to explore the possibility of resolving this situation privately, he stated 

Hailey and Yeager exchanged a knowing glance upon learning his profession, their determination unyielding as they simultaneously declared. “We have no interest in 

mediation” 

Despite already involving the police, they remained resolute in pursuing charges against Cedric for assault and sexual harassment. However, Chase remained unfazed by their refusal, flashing them a confident grin 

“I understand where you’re coming from, but let’s look at the facts. It was Mr. Yeager who initiated the verbal altercation, and Cedric merely responded in kind,‘ Chase asserted, aiming to present a different perspective 

‘He clearly made advances towards my girlfriend first. I was merely defending her What gives him the right to throw a punch? Yeager retorted, his lone growing heated. 

Sensing Yeager’s rising agitation, Chase swiftly placed a calming hand on his shoulder, attempting to diffuse the tension in the room. 

“Easy there Let’s talk about the terms of the mediation first 

Regardless of whether Yeager and Hailey were willing to listen, Chase just pulled over a chair and sat down opposite them. 

“Mr Yeager, I’ve looked at your medical report. Your injuries don’t even qualify as minor. Taking him to court could be a bit tricky. How about this, we’ll cover all your medical expenses and compensate you with an additional 100,000 for emotional damages. As for Cedric’s disrespectful behavior towards Ms. Vulpe, he misunderstood the situation and lost his cool. I’m willing to compensate Ms. Vulpe with 500,000 on Cedric’s behalf How does that sound?” 

If it were Hailey’s ex husband Austin Zimmer, he definitely would’ve agreed But sitting next to Hailey now was Yeager 

“We don’t need your money, and you can’t buy us off. We’re taking this to court. Let Cedric wait for his summons!” 

Seeing that the negotiation was going nowhere, Chase dropped his smile 

“Mr. Yeager, do you really think your minor injures are enough to put Cedric behind bars?” 

“They might not be, but I can make it happen Hailey said, her tone resolute. 

“Ms. Vulpe,” Chase cut her off, “do you think it’s easy to win a sexual harassment case? Without evidence, it can’t be confirmed as harassment. Plus, you and Cedric were in a relationship for three years It could just be seen as a lovers‘ spat.” 

These words deflated Hailey’s newfound courage. 

That’s right, how could they possibly sue Cedric? He had kissed her and touched her in the hotel room. 

The hotel Yeager had taken her to was high–end and valued their guests‘ privacy. There was no way there was surveillance in the room. 

Without evidence, there was no way they could sue him, and even if they did, it would probably just be a formality. 

The same went for Yeager’s injuries. Even the court–appointed medical examiner couldn’t confirm that they were serious enough to warrant legal action 

“I’ve said my piece. You guys can do whatever you want next. But, just to be clear, if you decide to sue him, I’ll be the one defending him.” 

In other words, it’s unlikely that Cedric would have to go to court over this minor issue. This was just sheer arrogance. 

With that, Chase handed Hailey a business card and told her to contact him if she decided to take the mediation 

Then he just walked away.
