Chapter 964
Sigrid just finished her performance and was about to head off to the dressing room to change. When she saw what was happening, she hurried over to her brother, Cedric
“Cedric, you okay?”
Cedric held out his pale hand
“Give me a hand”
When Sigrid took her brother’s hand, she felt how cold and weak it was.
His eyes were drooping, completely red, like he had taken a severe blow They were empty, lifeless
“Cedric ”
She whispered his name, feeling as if she could sense the pain in his heart. She tightened her grip on his hand, her own heart aching.
She had once walked in on Chase making out with another woman in their bed. She had felt the same way Cedric did now.
She had loved Chase deeply, just like Cedric loved Hailey now. But in the end, Hailey had chosen someone else.
Sigrid couldn’t tell who was right or wrong. Hailey was in a similar situation to what she had experienced
The only difference was that her brother, he was truly in love with Hailey…
Seeing the person you love passionately kissing someone else, how painful could that be?
Sigrid looked up at him, noticing his face was pale, devoid of colour
“Take me away
Too weak to walk, he might have collapsed if not for her.
Sigrid glanced over at the man and woman at the entrance of the dressing room.
Their kiss was public
Her brother didn’t even have the right to stop it.
The only way to save some dignity was to leave as quickly as possible.
Without even changing her clothes, Sigrid helped Cedric to his feet and they left
When Yeager finally let go of Hailey, she caught sight of Cedric’s red eyes and retreating figure
His staggering made Hailey’s heart squeeze. Had he seen them?
Definitely, otherwise, the pain and anger in his gaze wouldn’t make sense.
After they broke up, even though Cedric had two girlfriends, he never kissed in front of her.
Hailey had kissed Yeager twice and both times Cedric saw it. This was a bit
Then she thought, they had already broken up, why should she care so much about him?
After resolutely accompanying Yeager to dinner and a movie, Hailey finally returned home.
She parked the car and got out
Locking the door, she turned to walk towards the villa, only to see a man sprawled at the entrance
The tall man was drunk, leaning against a tree, heaving his guts out
She watched him for a long time, recognizing him from his silhouette…
Hailey held her car keys, hesitating for a few seconds before walking towards him.
“Cedric, what are you doing here?”
Upon hearing her voice, the hand gripping the tree trunk stiffened
Cedric pulled a handkerchief from his pocket with a trembling hand, wiped his mouth, and stood up to face Hailey
“I took a wrong turn, is that a crime?”
The strong smell of alcohol hit her. Hailey couldn’t help but frown.
“Why did you drink so much ”
She knew his respiratory system was weak, she would always remind him not to drink too much.
Now their relationship was so tense, Hailey didn’t have the right to say such things anymore.

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...
