uttered a complaint.

“That’s right, I accept him. From now on, Dr. Yeager and I are a couple.
Cedric was so incredulous he burst into laughter.

Cedric felt a pang in his chest at the words “known for a long time.” His face turned ashen, his eyes
flaring with rage. “Hailey!”
He forcefully pulled their hands apart, intending to drag Hailey out of the banquet hall, but she forcefully

“If you freaking dare to come over, I’ll make sure your whole family pays!”,
Seeing Cedric genuinely angry, Aidyn quickly stepped in to block Yeager.
“Dr. Yeager, it’s better not to provoke him.”

He was wealthy, handsome, and gentle to his girlfriends. Hailey felt there was nothing wrong with liking
him.
“But…
“But what?”
Cedric, hearing her admit that she’d 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.
“You looked down on me for being divorced during our three years together, afraid of being ridiculed by
