Chapter 755 Hailey hadnât danced in a while and accidentally stepped on Yeagerâs foot a few times, the last one pretty hard, causing Yeager to wince in pain.
âIâm really sorry, letâs stop dancing. Iâll take you to rest over there.â
Yeager told her it was fine, but Hailey didnât want to dance anymore, worried her heels might hurt Yeagerâs foot if she stepped on him again.
Supporting Yeager, Hailey started to leave the dance floor. But before they could reach the sofa, they were blocked by a tall man.
Cedric, dressed in a tailored suit, was strikingly handsome and debonair with an aura of deep nobility about him.
His eyes coldly stared at Haileyâs hand on Yeagerâs arm.
âMs. Vulpe, are you on a blind date here?â
Hailey didnât want to engage with him. She tried to walk around him with Yeager, but Cedric blocked their way.
âDr. Yeager, did you know Ms. Vulpe and I dated for three years?â
Cedric was taller than both of them. Looking down at Yeager who was wearing silver rimmed glasses.
Yeager, having just returned from abroad, was clueless about a lot of things. But he knew the man before him.
He was the hospitalâs big boss Bernardâs cousin, even his name Cedric was famous at home and abroad.
Compared to Yeager, Cedric was clearly more powerful...
But for some reason, Yeager wanted to refute Cedric when he saw the disdain and superiority in his eyes.
Holding Haileyâs hand, he stood tall, chin up, facing the young but arrogant Cedric.
âShe was with you for three years, now sheâs not. Thereâs no need for you to tell me this.â
âReally?â
Cedric took a step forward, looming over Yeager with his height.
âDr. Yeager, are you okay with picking up my leftovers?â
Cedricâs words hurt Hailey.
Hailey thought she wouldnât feel this hurt anymore, but his words still stung.
âCedric, were you just playing with me during those three years we were together?â
âOr were we in a relationship?â
Cedric looked at her a bit angrily.
Hailey felt a chill run down her spine, her hands and feet going cold.
They were together for three years, and he was very good to her.
He would prevent her from smoking, helped her quit smoking; when she was on her period, he would take care of her, when she had a headache from staying up late, he would hold her, gently rubbing her neck to ease her pain; when she was unhappy, he would buy gifts to cheer her up, flowers, food, drinks, and would pick her up and drop her off every day...
In Cedricâs view, were these not considered being in a relationship, but just a game?
Haileyâs face turned serious, her eyes full of disappointment looking at Cedric, âI understand.â She tried to leave with Yeager, but Yeager tightly grabbed her hand.

âCedric.â Yeager held Haileyâs hand tightly, looking up at Cedric, âSince you insist on using pick upâ to insult Ms. Vulpe, then I will unhesitatingly accept her.â
The warmth from his hand felt somewhat unfamiliar to Hailey, but she didnât shake it off, seemingly out of some kind of spite, so she didnât push him away.
Cedric looked at their tightly clasped hands, his face unhappy, his eyes seemingly flickering with rage.
He stared at Hailey, after a long silence, he gritted his teeth and asked:
âSince you didnât push him away, are you planning to accept him?â
