Chapter 1184 Latonia and Quinlan had already seen Cedricâs latest updates on social media, so his return didnât exactly come as a shocker.
Sigrid had conflicts with them, but not Cedric Even if he did, he still had to spill the beans about his upcoming wedding.
Cedric came back, but didnât immediately lay his cards on the table. The Laurences played dumb and had the servants serve dinner They chatted in the living room for a bit, then moved to the dining table. Thatâs when Cedric finally said it, âMom, Dad, I wanna get married, hope you can help with the prep.â
Unlike Bernard, Cedric had his parents around, and they had to deal with this. At least when it came to the wedding prep, they had to show up in person. It was his way of showing respect to Hailey.
He knew this, and thatâs why he came back to discuss with them. But the Laurences just exchanged a glance, and Latonia was the one who finally broke the silence, âWhoâs the lucky lady?â
Truth be told, they already had a guess. Cedric had been in a relationship with a woman three years older than him a few years ago. They had been together for around three years. Even after they broke up, they still kept in touch Heâd got drunk one night and hit Robin Spencerâs car, all because of that woman. Later, ended up in the hospital also because of her.
Even though the Laurences didnât stick their noses into these matters, it didnât mean they were clueless. In fact, they knew too much, and they were not exactly over the moon about their sonâs wedding announcement But theyâd learned their lesson from the Sigrid saga, and even though she was upset, Latonia put on a friendly face.
Cedric gave Latonia a once over, and could tell his mom was putting on a brave face. âHer nameâs Hailey, sheâs the love of my life, and I have to marry her.â After heâd said his piece, he put down his fork and looked at his parents, âYouâve probably already dug up dirt on her, so donât even bother asking. Iâm here today to let you guys know, Iâm gonna marry her.â
Quinlan didnât really give a damn about the marriages of his children, as long as they were happy. But Latonia was a different story. She was all about marrying within your social class and character. Sheâd done her homework on Hailey, and she obviously thought Hailey was bad news.
Seeing her son was dead set on marrying her, Latonia changed her tune from her hardball approach with Sigrid, and said with a soft voice. Tâve heard about Ms Vulpe. If you like her, I wonât stand in your way. But Cedric, sheâs only a high school graduate, sheâs been married before, and now sheâs running a nightclub. If you marry her, Iâm worried people will make fun of youâ

âWho dares to make fun of her?â
Cedricâs face turned stormy, his eyes boring into Latonia, âAre you judging her based on this oneâsided info?â
Latonia chuckled, âI donât have much contact with her, so all I have is the info I got.â
Cedric replied icily, âSheâs a high school graduate, sheâs been married before, she worked at a nightclub, so what? I love her. Whether sheâs a rich girl, an average Jane, or a homeless person, I said Iâm gonna marry her, and I will!â
Latoniaâs hand clenched under the table, âCedric, this is your first marriage, but itâs her second. How can you two possibly match?â
If Hailey had no previous marriage, she might have agreed, but Hailey had already been married once and was three years older than Cedric. How could she accept this as his mother?
Cedric didnât give a damn about Haileyâs marital past, âEven if sheâs been married three, four times, what does that have to do with me marrying her?â
Cedric was far more determined than Sigrid. He wouldnât take any advice, and Latonia, feeling tense, stopped pushing, just asked, âAre you sure you want to marry her?â
Cedric nodded without a second thought, âGet the wedding gifts ready. After I propose. Iâll take you to meet her family.â
He was indeed there just to deliver the message. After speaking, he was about to get up and leave, but he was stopped by Quinlan. âCedric, look at your arrogant demeanor. Have you ever considered our feelings?â
