A Second Chance at Forever Chapter 1204

Chapter 1204

Hailey lifted her head, staring at the innocent–looking Cedric in front of her and scotted.

“Apparently, I don’t love you that much.”

She didn’t love him that much… so she didn’t want to marry him.

The reason that broke Cedric’s heart more than his mother’s disapproval was this. But…

“I know you don’t love me that much. As long as I have a tiny spot in your heart, it’s enough.”

Watching her son beg Hailey in such a humble way, Latonia suddenly felt painful.

She always thought it was Hailey who was clingy, but as Bernard said, it was the other way around.

And Hailey, far from being moved, just stared blankly at the almost kneeling Cedric,

“Mr. Laurence, you don’t even have a tiny spot in my heart.”

Cedric didn’t believe this at all.

“If there was no place for me, why did you…”

“I was drunk!”

Hailey interrupted him coldly.

“Even if it wasn’t you sleeping with me that night, it could have been any guy.”

Those cold and ruthless words pierced Cedric’s heart, making him go pale.

“Hailey, have you ever considered how I would feel when you say things like this?”

“Why should I consider your feelings when I don’t even love you!”

This angry retort made Cedric’s clear eyes turn red.

He stepped forward, grabbed Hailey’s wrist, but she fiercely fought back and shook him off.

This repeated rejection instantly enraged Cedric-

Without any hesitation, he grabbed Hailey’s shoulders, pushed her against the wall, and encircled her in his arms.

Hailey tried to suppress her feelings of disgust and struggled fiercely. He held her hands with one hand and clamped her legs with his.

After restraining her, Cedric grabbed her chin, forcing her to lift her head, angrily staring into her dodging eyes.

“Hailey, look into my eyes and tell me, do you love me or not?!”

He had intended to be calm and composed, but the unreasonable Hailey made it impossible!

Forced to meet his gaze, Hailey calmly answered, looking into Cedric’s angry eyes.

“I don’t love you.”

This answer instantly extinguished Cedric’s rage, leaving him with nothing but cold blood.

He stared at Hailey, trying to see any traces of lies in her eyes, but only saw disgust and disdain.

Looking at Hailey like this, he stared for a while, then let go of her weakly.

Getting the chance to breathe, Hailey turned and ran, as if a moment’s delay would make her stay because of that 50% love.

Seeing the breakdown between the two, Latonia immediately went to Cedric’s side and gently patted his shoulder.

“I asked Ms. Vulpe before if she loved you or not. She said she didn’t. I think she was telling the truth.”

Cedric’s heart was bleeding. After hearing this, he pulled up the corner of his mouth and gave a cold laugh.

“If she doesn’t love me, then so be it. No one is forcing her!”

After saying this, Cedric turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Hailey.

When he passed a set of tables and chairs in the hallway, he lifted his leg and gave it a furious kick.

His toenail in the shoe flipped up due to this angry move…

The Cedric who would feel pain even from a light touch, didn’t notice it this time.

Standing in the hallway, Latonia watched the two going in opposite directions, at a loss.

This was the result she wanted, but seeing Hailey really rejecting Cedric, she felt somewhat unfair for him.

With mixed emotions, she glanced at Hailey’s back, then at Cedric’s, and quickly followed her son.

After returning to Garett’s house, Hailey rolled up her sleeves, went into the kitchen, and started to get busy.

Soon, the aroma of asparagus bacon soup wafted from the pot. Hailey, who should have found it delicious, felt extremely nauseous instead.

She thought it might be the bacon going bad. She hastily lifted the lid of the pot and tasted it with a spoon. A wave of nausea almost made her throw up.

Luckily, it was just dry heaving. She didn’t care, put down the spoon, picked up the pot of soup, and dumped it into the trash…
