Chapter 979
The warmth passing between their fingers made Hailey freeze in her tracks
She looked up at Yeager, his hair all wild and messy, his forehead slick with cold sweat He looked like a completely different person from the gentleman she first met. She knew that all this disarray was because of her
Yeager had racked his brain to keep her by his side, including the strategic moves he just made. Hailey had seen it all. But he also honestly told her that all this was because Cedric wouldn’t let go of her
The blood trickling from Yeager’s hand dripped onto Hailey’s, causing her to hesitate for a long while before she raised her hand again to stop his bleeding
“Have you set a date to meet with your parents?”
Yeager looked puzzled at her sudden question
“Yeah, they’re coming back next month”
After saying this, Yeager added
“Don’t worry, when I go back, I’ll call and cancel their trip.”
Hailey paused for a moment before lifting her head to look at him.
“If you’ve already set a date, then don’t change it
Yeager was taken aback, then quickly caught on
“You. You’re not planning to break up with me?”
Hailey shook her head firmly
“No.”
She’s not the kind of person who changes her mind easily. Yeager hadn’t done anything fundamentally wrong, he just did some shady things out of fear of Cedric. It wouldn’t be fair to ditch Yeager just for that.
Seeing that Hailey had no intention of breaking up, Yeager was overjoyed Ignoring the wound on his hand, he pulled Hailey into a tight hug.
“I thought after today, I wouldn’t get another chance to be with you…”
He rested his chin on Hailey’s shoulder, saying with great affection,
“Hailey, thank you for choosing to forgive me”
Hailey didn’t say anything, just gently patting his back.
“Let’s head to the hospital first”
After Yeager was treated and stitched up at the hospital, Hailey sat down in front of his bed.
“Mr. Laurence was wrongly accused, we need to give him a fair treatment. I’ll go see him now, apologize and then cut off all contact. Will you mind?”
Hailey’s words meant she planned to sever ties with Cedric. Yeager, being the smart guy he is, caught her drift.
“I won’t mind, but the person who should apologize is me, not you. After all, I’m the one who wrongly accused him,”
“You don’t need to go.”
Hailey shook her head, and Yeager’s eyes fell
“I know that Mr. Laurence, like me, doesn’t want to see me and you together”
Hailey could see the pain written all over Yeager’s face. Gazing into his handsome features, she spoke calmly, “I truly want to marry you and build a life together Once I commit to someone, I’m loyal and won’t easily change my mind, unless you betray me. So, you don’t need to worry about Mr. Laurence anymore, and please don’t provoke him. If you repeat this mistake, I won’t be able to forgive you.”

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...
