Chapter 1213 Cedricâs sudden proposal left Hailey totally clueless. She didnât know how to respond and felt lost.
âMy headâs all over the place right now. Could you give me some time to think?â
Cedric seemed a bit too eager during his proposal, like he was trying to seize the moment, but his actions felt rushed.
He glanced at the diamond ring on Haileyâs finger. Seeing that she hadnât taken it off and handed back to him implied that she he still go a chance, so he didnât pressure her further.
âSo, how long do you need to think?â
âGarett will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Iâll make sure heâs settled back home first, then Iâll give you a clear answer.â
Cedric could tell Hailey was still confused, and guessed she probably hadnât sorted out her thoughts yet.
âAlright, Iâll head back and wait for your answer.â
Hailey nodded. Cedric stared at her for a while, then suddenly reached out and hugged her tightly.
Although Hailey initially wanted to push him away, she stopped when he embraced her with all his might.
Feeling that she didnât instinctively push him away like before, a wave of warmth surged in Cedricâs heart, making him feel extremely sweet.
âHailey, I hope your answer wonât be rejection this time.â
After saying this, Cedric let go of Hailey, smiled, and turned to leave.
Watching his retreating figure, Hailey was lost in confusion.
She raised her hand and stared at the diamond ring....
Was what Hertha said true? Should she trust Cedric again?
After getting in the car, Cedric gave Latonia a big hug.
âMom, without you, I might have been alone forever.â
Seeing Cedric so happy, Latonia knew that the previous misunderstanding had been cleared up, and she couldnât help but laugh.
âWhether youâre alone or not isnât up to me. Just bring me a grandchild home, and Iâll be happy.â
âIf you want a grandchild, weâll have plenty of kids after Hailey and I get married.â
Latonia was still somewhat dissatisfied with Hailey, but she preferred her over Hertha to be her daughter-in-law.
âAfter you get married, just live your own lives. Donât always bring Hailey in front of me.â
She clearly wanted out of sight, out of mind, but...
âIf you can speak well of me in front of Sigrid, I wonât mind her being around.â
Cedric propped his chin with one hand, turned his head, and looked at Latonia with a teasing expression.
âSo youâre helping me for Sigridâs sake...â
âWho else could it be?â Latonia seemed a bit arrogant, âwhy should I help you then?â
Cedric burst into laughter, saying, âMom, you just canât say nice things.â
Latonia raised her hand and tugged his ear.
âSince youâre saying that about me, fine, you can pay for your dadâs losses yourself.â
Cedric immediately put on a flattering smile.
âMom, Iâll definitely invite Sigrid over on my wedding day.â
He had to save his money for his wife and kids.
Hearing his words, Latonia finally let go of his ear.
âThatâs acceptable...â
After Cedricâs car left the hospital, a red car suddenly turned around and came A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

2 111, Hades seemed a bit distracted. Noticing this, Garett put âHailey, is something bothering you these days?â
Lately, Hailey always seemed down, even her smiles felt forced.
his book.
Even though she wasnât as downcast as she was a few days ago, her eyes still held a hint of worry.
Garett was dealing with depression and had undergone a major surgery. He had to endure the severe pain from his leg nerves every day. He was already miserable enough, so Hailey naturally didnât want to add to his burden.
âIâm fine. A younger guy proposed to me and Iâm not sure whether to accept him.â
Garett was smart. Just from the word âyoungerâ, he thought of Cedric. In his view, Cedric was a playboy with many female friends, but his scandals had decreased a lot since he got together with Hailey.
âIf you love him, accept him. If not, reject him.â
Since Hailey didnât want to mention who it was, Garett also pretended not to know. He just gave advice as a younger brother, hoping his sister could marry the person she truly loved.
