Chapter 756 Hailey paused, considering the fact that heâd had several girlfriends post-breakup and she hadnât uttered a complaint.
Sheâd simply been on a blind date, and he acted like sheâd done something wrong.
What the hell was this? Was she forbidden to date anyone else just because sheâd been with Cedric?
No way, she was definitely going to date!
Hailey reached out and intertwined her fingers with Yeager Alisâ, looking up at Cedric.
âThatâs right, I accept him. From now on, Dr. Yeager and I are a couple.
Cedric was so incredulous he burst into laughter.
âHuh, youâre ready to become his girlfriend after you just met him once today? You really donât have any standards.â
âWho said I just met him once?â
Hailey shifted her gaze from Cedric to Yeager, who was quietly watching her.
âHe was my senior in high school, weâve known each other for a long time. We reunited and found we liked each other, so we decided to date. Is that being frivolous?â
Cedric felt a pang in his chest at the words âknown for a long time.â His face turned ashen, his eyes flaring with rage. âHailey!â
He forcefully pulled their hands apart, intending to drag Hailey out of the banquet hall, but she forcefully shook him off. âCedric, youâre just someone I used to date. We broke up, weâre not together anymore, so please stop bothering me.â
His chest tightened at her words, the pain spreading from his fingertips, slowly creeping into his heart and then throughout his body. âHailey, if you dare, say it again!â
Hailey was about to repeat it, but the sight of his reddening eyes stopped her.
For the first time, his eyes were out of control, the corners turning red...
Cedric hated this loss of control. He grabbed Haileyâs wrist and pulled her into his Yeager Alis tried to intervene, but was stopped by Cedricâs fierce glare.
âIf you freaking dare to come over, Iâll make sure your whole family pays!â, Seeing Cedric genuinely angry, Aidyn quickly stepped in to block Yeager.
âDr. Yeager, itâs better not to provoke him.â
Aidyn, being physically stronger, managed to pull Yeager away.
Cedric turned his attention back to the woman in his arms.
âSay it again, what am I to you?â
He gripped her chin, forcing her to look at him.
arms.
The Cedric at this moment was no longer the frivolous play boy, but a man exuding dominance.
Seeing his aggressive gaze, Hailey realized that although he was younger, he was different.
âCedric.â Hailey clenched her fists, taking a deep breath. âI admit, I did have feelings for you when we were together.â

The men sheâd encountered throughout her life were ordinary, only Cedric was unique.
He was wealthy, handsome, and gentle to his girlfriends. Hailey felt there was nothing wrong with liking him.
âBut...
âBut what?â
Cedric, hearing her admit that sheâd liked him, felt his irritation and tension subside, replaced by excitement as he gazed at her intensely.
But Hailey lifted her moist eyes, looking at him with disappointment.
âYou looked down on me for being divorced during our three years together, afraid of being ridiculed by your friends, unwilling to take me out.â
âEven when we bumped into each other on the street, youâd push me away or introduce me as your friend.â
âAt that time, I started to think that there might not be a future between us, so I stopped liking you...â
