A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 836

Even though she knew Yeager Alis wouldn’t exactly be thrilled about Cedric Laurence’s visit, she still let him upstairs. If Yeager found out…

Seeing it from Yeager’s perspective, Hailey felt she was being a total jerk. She quickly pushed Cedric away, creating some distance between them.

“It’s chilly tonight, I’ll get a blanket for him, and then I’ll leave”

Cedric went over to the sofa, casually grabbed a throw blanket, and covered Yeager with it. He was so unceremonious that he ended up covering Yeager’s entire face with it. Hailey glared at Cedric, moved the blanket off of Yeager’s face, and opened a window for ventilation before leaving

Seeing that she had no intention of staying overnight, Cedric’s gloomy face regained a bit of color.

They walked through the complex, one in front of the other, their silhouettes growing more and more distant under the dim streetlights.

Cedric, the one in front, would slow down every time he took a turn, waiting for the shadow behind him to catch up before continuing on

After exiting the complex they should have each driven their own cars, but Cedric knocked on Hailey’s window as she got into her car.

“I’ve had a few drinks, I can’t drive Mind giving me a lift?”

“How did you get here, then? Hailey glanced at him.

“I didn’t see any cops on the way”
