A Second Chance at Forever Chapter 746

Chapter 746

She seemed totally uninterested in what he was saying, and this left Cedric feeling a bit down in the dumps, even anxious. He had a sinking feeling that Hailey might never come back to

him

Without thinking, he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close into his embrace

The faint smell of tobacco lingered on her, wafting into his nostrils

This familiar scent stirred a pang of nostalgia within him. He turned his head towards her hair, taking a gentle sniff

“Hailey, you’ve been smoking again. Didn’t you promise me you’d quit? Why are you breaking your promises?”

His voice was filled with reproach, but also a sense of helplessness and fondness towards her

“Cedric you have a girlfriend, is it appropriate for you to hold me like this?”

Her voice rang softly in his ear, causing Cedric to stiffen instantly, but he stubbornly continued to hold her.

“Hailey, you once promised me that you’d accompany me to see the snow When are we going?”

“Cedric, you have a girlfriend, this is not appropriate. Please let mega”

“Hailey. I.”

“Cedric

Hailey’s angry shout made Cedric shut his mouth instantly.

He withdrew his hands from her back and waist

He reverted to his aloof demeanor, took a step back and put some distance between them.

“Ms. Vulpe, you know I’ve been a bit of a nostalgia junkie lately, always trying to hit on my exes. Dont take it to heart.”

Everyone in town knew that Cedric was a bit of a player.

If he showed care, it probably meant he was after a one–night stand

Hailey always remembered this and dared not take his so–called care as genuine

As an ordinary woman, she could not compare with a rich playboy. The smartest thing to do was to cut her losses promptly

Moreover, she was three years older than Cedric As a woman over thirty, she didn’t have time to fool around with a young guy

Hailey looked at Cedric, casually replied “It’s alright,” then went back to the roadside to wait for a cab.

As she stood there, Cedric suddenly had a desire to take her home, lock her up, and never let her out again.

This thought surprised even him

He had always been casual with women from his past, not really caring about them.

But now, why would he have such feelings for Hailey Vulpe?

Cedric hated this feeling of losing control and got into his car with a hint of annoyance.

As his Rolls–Royce passed her, Hailey raised her hand and touched her hair.

A taxi arrived, and Haley quickly snapped out of her thoughts, opened the door, and hopped in.

The car drove into the city center and stopped in front of the Clowers family mansion.

Hailey got out of the car with her purse and walked up to the grand, imposing mansion

She had been here a few times, and the security guards recognized her. Hearing that she was here to see Garett, they let her in right away

It was Sunday, and Garett was not at the Clowers Group Instead, he was sitting in the garden, engrossed in a book.

He was wearing a white shirt with a black coat thrown over it, and a blanket draped over his legs

If not for the wheelchair, he still looked like the pure, untarnished boy he once was, as if untouched by the dust of the world.

Every time Hailey saw Garett like this, her heart ached. He was such an outstanding person, but he had lost the use of his legs and could no longer stand.

She stood behind him, silently watching him for a long time, then walked over and softly called out, “Garett…”
