Chapter 1203 As soon as these words were spoken, not only Cedric but also Latonia couldnât figure them out.
Latonia thought to herself, âI apologized personally, isnât it enough for Hailey? Does she still need to play those mind games?â
However, Hailey wasnât deliberately opposing Latonia. She genuinely didnât want Cedric anymore.
After Hailey grabbed Latoniaâs hand, stuffed the card into it, and quickly turned to leave, Cedric chased after her like a madman. He grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.
âHailey, if you think my momâs apology wasnât sincere enough, tell me. Iâll have her apologize again. Donât say you donât want to marry me.â
Cedricâs embrace was like a vine, tightly wrapping around Hailey, making it impossible for her to break free and causing her pain.
He had held Hertha, Norene, and countless other women before. She didnât care in the past, but now, she felt disgusted.
She didnât even want to talk to him, she just tried to push him away. But Cedric held her tightly, as if she would disappear the moment he let go.
âHailey, my mom was wrong. She knows her mistake and came to apologize. It means she wonât stop us anymore. Donât be mad, donât leave me because of this.â
Unable to break free, the scent of Cedric reminded Hailey of that night. She felt nauseous and pushed him away furiousty.
âGet off me!â
But how could Cedric possibly let her go? He held on to her desperately.
âI can hardly see you, how could I let you go!â His grip was like a shackle, binding Hailey.
Suddenly, she couldnât control her emotions and exploded-
âDO NOT TOUCH ME! DO NOT TOUCH ME, I SAID DO NOT TOUCH ME!â
This thunderous roar, along with the frantic shoving, startled both Cedric and Hailey herself.
She slowly looked up at Cedric, his eyes mirrored her...
She wasnât the gentle Hailey from before, but a distorted, hateful woman.
She was afraid of becoming a shrew, but because of the 50% love, she turned into what she feared.
In the end, she became a shrew...
Her strong reaction made Cedric slowly let go.
âHailey, alright, I wonât touch you...â
Cedricâs voice was gentle, but his eyes were fearful.
Seeing this, Hailey felt bitter. She remembered when Austin Zimmer cheated on her and got hit, he looked at her the same way.
She could imagine how ugly she was when she was angry, enough to frighten the one who made the mistake.
She hated being like this, absolutely hated it. But she was strong, unwilling to show her vulnerable side to others...
She said âsorryâ and tried to leave, but was stopped by Cedric again.
This time, he didnât touch her but kept a proper distance.
âHailey, are you okay lately?â
That night, she was still full of affection and charm when he was with her. How could she be so repulsive after such a short time?
Hailey kept her head down and didnât speak. This silence and calmness made Cedric more uneasy than her outburst.
âIs it because of my mom that you...â
âItâs not about your mother.â
âThen what is it?â
Besides his motherâs interference, what else could it be?
Hailey, now calm, slowly looked up at the man standing in front of her, still maintaining a distance.
âYou know it yourself. Why do you want me to spell it out? Canât you leave some dignity to yourself?â
Cedric was confused by her vague words.

âWhat do I know?â What should he know?
Seeing him pretending to be clueless, Haileyâs disappointment in Cedric grew.
That night, when Hertha asked if he was enjoying it, he responded. Now he was acting like he knew nothing.
Having revealed the truth, it was enough for him to know. There was no need to say something too awkward in front of his mother.
âCedric, thereâs no chance for us anymore. Donât come look for me.â
After saying this, she turned to leave. The surprised Cedric chased after her again.
âHailey, explain it to me. Even if we donât get married, at least let me understand.â
Whether it was because of his mother or for other reasons, he should at least know the root of the problem.
