Chapter 995
Hailey’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions, slowly slipping into disappointment Ever since we started dating, there were only two instances – once in B City, and now. All the other times, Cedric has kept his promise, avoiding me whenever he sees me, never bothering me. But you always suspect that he’s hanging around me, that in your heart, you also think I’m a person who cant make up her mind, is that it?”
does this mean
The voice struck Yeager’s heart like a hammer, making him feel a sense of guilt. It’s not like that. I believe in your character, and I know you have been rejecting Cedric It’s Cedric’s own instability that led him to disturb you, even when you have a boyfriend. It’s his fault, and I’m also at fault for doubting you I’m sorry for being too direct in my words and disappointing you.”
Hailey watched him silently for a while and then calmly said, “I think. we might not be right for each other. We should end this relationship”
Upon hearing this, Yeager immediately felt panicked “Hailey, please don’t do this. My parents know you’re the girl I’ve liked since high school. They hold you in high regard, which is why they put aside all their work and took a long leave just to visit you. Don’t break up with me now because of the situation with your ex boyfriend. I can’t bear it, and neither can my parents
Hailey was an orphan, and because it involved his parents, she felt that breaking up with Yeager would be disrespectful to them, especially since they had come specifically
to see her
As Hailey hesitated. Yeager grabbed her hand, and suddenly, blood began to flow from his hand, staining the bandage and turning his hand’s back a bright red. The blood also dripped onto Hailey’s hand.
Yeager let go of her, raised his bloody hand, and held it out to Hailey “Hailey you know what, under Bernard’s oppression, all I could do was resist…”
In reality, Bernard hadn’t said anything. It was Yeager who had provoked him first, but Yeager insisted on twisting the story. If Liana were there, she’d definitely call him out.
But Liana wasn’t there, and Hailey didn’t know the specifics, she only knew what Yeager had told her. Now with Yeager’s words, she didn’t know how to respond
Seeing Hailey’s silence, Yeager’s voice carried a hint of resentment. “Hailey, this battered hand was hurt by Bernard. To be honest, I’ve already paid a heavy price for falsely accusing Cedric. It should be enough, so you shouldn’t break up with me as punishment, it’s too cruel…”
Hailey looked at his bloodied hand, unsure of who was right and who was wrong

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...
