Chapter 1062 Hailey, in her thirties, had experienced numerous trials and tribulations. Eleanor, too, had endured hardships, yet she was luckier than Hailey, for she had at least found her own sister, seen their motherâs video recording, and knew what they look like. However, Hailey remained unaware of her own parentsâ Identity.
Reflecting on Haileyâs years of suffering, Eleanor felt deep compassion and embraced her tenderly. âHailey, itâs my failure for not protecting you adequately,â she lamented. Eleanor realized that she should have intervened promptly when she recognized Yeagerâs true nature, as it ultimately led to Haileyâs ordeal Having shed tears already, Hailey lifted her hand, swathed in gauze, and gently stroked Eleanorâs long tresses, comforting her with soft words. âIâm fine now, you neednât worry or blame yourself.â The predicament Hailey faced was not Eleanorâs doing. It was her own tendency to misjudge people emotionally, always having to face adversity and invest everything to gain clarity.
In truth, she, a person of this nature, ought not to attempt marriage; instead, she should embrace a solitary life, thus finding peace and tranquility.
Contemplating this, Hailey glanced at Cedric, who still sat by the bedside, and her heart filled with bitterness, causing her eyes to well up once more.
âMr. Laurence, I thank you for saving me,â she said with a calm tone, seemingly attempting to distance herself from him with a simple expression of gratitude.
Cedric frowned slightly, wanted to say something, but didnât. He just wanted to wait until she had passed this painful period before talking to her again.
âYou rest up, I have some stuff to deal with.â
With that, Cedric got up to leave, seeing Bernard outside the ward.
Where to?â
Cedric clenched his fist, his forearm muscles tensed, and veins popped out.
To find Yeager, that jerk!â
He was going to make them pay for what they did.
As Cedric was about to leave, Bernard stopped him.
âIâve already sent that man to the police station. As for Yeager, Iâll deal with him.â
Bernard still had to clear Will Webbâs name. So he might as well settle these matters once and for all âYouâre dealing with it?â
What did Yeager have to do with Bernard? Why was he sticking his nose in?
âWatch the news tomorrow morning.â
Bernard didnât explain, just said this.
Cedric wanted to ask more, but Bernard just patted him on the shoulder.
âYou stay here and keep Ms. Vulpe company In moments like these, when a woman underwent such hardships, having companionship was essential, and having Eleanor and Cedric by her side was the best support.
Bernard disregarded Cedricâs agreement or disagreement and had Scott stay to protect Eleanor, then turned to find Liana.
âWhere is he?â Bernard inquired.
âHeâs on the hospital rooftop, Liana responded promptly after learning about the situation. She immediately dispatched an ambulance to take Yeager to the hospital for basic treatment and then discreetly confined him on the top floor.
âAnd the medical examiner?â Bernard asked.
Liana presented the VIP card for the rooftop, swiped the elevator open, and respectfully replied, âThe medical examiner is also on the top floor.â
Despite not being on duty tonight, a single phone call from Liana had brought him to the hospital. As soon as he stepped into the directorâs office, she detained him.
âHave you dealt with the surveillance footage?â
âItâs already taken care of, the medical examiner assured her.
Only then did Bernard extend his hand to Aidyn.
Aidyn immediately understood his meaning, took out a sealed bag from his pocket, ripped open the packaging, and took out a pair of clean gloves for him.
