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…

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
