Chapter 1017 Hailey couldnât believe it and insisted on having a deep convo with Nina, but Nina just kept throwing out interesting remarks that left Hailey speechless.
âKids these days are really something else, quickâwitted and fast on their feet.â
Liana walked in just in time to catch that comment. âI once did an IQ test for Nina. She scored higher than you, so donât treat her like a child.â
Hailey questioned if this was true, Liana just laughed and said, âWith parents as brilliant as hers, of course sheâs gonna be amazing.â
Eleanor noticed that Liana and Hailey had arrived and after they hung out with Nina for a bit, she took them to the lounge area.
She called for a barista to brew some coffee, served some desserts, and then asked Hailey, âDid you meet Yeagerâs parents today? How did it go?â
Hailey came to Fiord Roundabout to talk with Eleanor about this. âHis dad didnât say much, but his mom seemed to look down on my background and job. Even though she wasnât outright dismissive, I could still feel it in her words.â
Eleanor and Hailey were both orphans and knew what it felt like to be looked down on. âDid Yeager stand up for you?â
Hailey initially shook her head, but then she nodded. âHe didnât say anything when I was there, but when I came back from the restroom, his mom changed her attitude. So, I guess he must have said something.â
Liana was concerned about the outcome. Seeing Haileyâs uncertainty, she asked, âSo, whatâs your plan? Are you going to get married or...?â
Hailey waved her off, saying, âI feel like his mom isnât too pleased with me, and I donât want to rush into marriage either. So, I suggested postponing the wedding in front of his parents.â
Eleanor asked, âDid Yeager agree?â
Hailey nodded, replying, âHe agreed. He said heâll listen to me.â
Eleanor and Liana exchanged looks, unsure of how to judge the situation. Finally, Liana said, âItâs okay to postpone. You guys havenât been together for too long, and you donât really know each otherâs character and qualities that well. Thereâs no rush to get married.â
If it werenât for Yeager setting up Will, Liana might have thought he was a decent marriage prospect. Now, she just hoped her matchmaking wouldnât hurt Hailey.

ï¤Chapter 1016 Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END)
ï¤Chapter 1765 (END)
Fortunately, after meeting Yeagerâs parents, Hailey decided to postpone the wedding. Everything was still manageable, but since they hadnât broken up yet, how to investigate Yeager became an issue.
Chapter 1017 Liana didnât dare to make the decision alone. She left the drugs Mr. Keith gave her with Eleanor and left Fiord Roundabout under the guise of hospital business. She drove to the Lawrence Group to report to Bernard.
After hearing Lianaâs report in his office, Bernard calmly asked, âDid the people we sent out find anything?â
Liana shook her head, âThe only solution right now is to grill Yeager and the coroner.â
Bernard fell silent for a few seconds, then said indifferently, âThen letâs wait a little longer.â
Once they break up, Bernard would definitely step in and have people arrest Yeager and the coroner. For now, while theyâre still together, Bernard could only play the waiting game.
He needed to consider Eleanorâs feelings, and on the other hand, he was afraid that taking action would cause unnecessary trouble for Hailey. So, he decided to wait.
Understanding Bernardâs thoughts, Liana didnât say much, just responded with an âokayâ and left the CEOâs office...
Eleanor just saw off Hailey when a car pulled up in front of her.
Then, the car window slowly rolled down, revealing a face that was extraordinarily refined and stunningly beautiful.
