A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 726

Hertha, holding Cedric's arm gently, said, "Cedric, don't make a fuss about it. It's just a bouquet of flowers. Ms. Vulpe didn't do it on purpose."

Hailey got the picture. Hertha was just taking out on her the frustrations she got from Sigrid.

Because it was she who made it impossible for Hertha to please Sigrid and also suffer humiliation from her.

If she had dodged when Sigrid pushed the flowers back to her, Hertha wouldn't have had Cedric pick a bone with her.

She didn't expect that Cedric would actually confront her for being a manipulative girlfriend and demand the flowers that should have been hers without any hesitation.

If she had just admired his piano playing, now…

Hailey smiled, didn't say anything, and handed over the flowers in her hand to him.

Cedric just stared at the bouquet.

Maybe he himself felt it was a bit petty, so he didn't rush to take it.

"You wanted it, didn't you? Why aren't you taking it?"

Seeing that he didn't take it or respond, Hailey offered the flowers again.

"It's just a bouquet of flowers; I don't really care."

Flowers don't care, and people don't care either. Those who have been through a failed marriage wouldn't expect too much anyway.

Hailey's nonchalant demeanor made Cedric frown. He seemed a bit pissed.

"Hailey is older than me. Of course, she would be more generous."

Hailey chuckled, flicked her hair that was blocking her vision behind her ears, and stole a glance at Hertha.

"If I were unreasonable, your girlfriend would be pissed. Better be generous instead. If I were to really take action, both you and your girlfriend wouldn't be able to take it."

Her actions exuded maturity. But her words were tough.

Her eyes were also firm. It seemed that if they kept causing trouble, she would really take action.

Seeing Hailey like this, Liana thought that if this wasn't Eleanor's wedding, Hailey would have probably taken action against Hertha already.

In Hailey's words, she's just an ordinary person, not some high-born lady. If anyone pissed her off, she would take action directly.

When she was divorcing her ex-husband, her ex and a third party distorted the truth in court.

The first thing Hailey did after leaving the court was to grab a few guys and beat the crap out of the third party and her ex-husband.

Was she pissed?

Who saw that she was pissed at Cedric?

She thought Norene was annoying enough, but there's someone even more annoying.

Hailey looked at Eleanor and Bernard, surrounded by the elders of the Laurence family in the distance.

If this wasn't Eleanor's wedding, and to avoid making the scene awkward, she really wanted to break her teeth.

Hailey took a deep breath and decided to ignore them. Just as she was about to pull Liana away, Cedric sneered.

"If she's mad at me, maybe the sun will rise from the west."

"Why do you say that?"

Hertha asked innocently, and Cedric lovingly touched her head.

"Because her heart is like a stone, cold as ice. How could she possibly get mad?"

Even if he got married right now, she wouldn't have any emotional reaction.
