A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 803

"Dr. Yeager, the patient's abdominal cavity is suddenly bleeding..."

He hadn't even opened the tightly closed bathroom door when the voice of the chief surgeon came through his other earpiece.

Yeager returned to his seat, putting his headphones back on and fully focusing on guiding the patient's surgery.

Meanwhile, Cedric continued to kiss Hailey intensely, almost causing her to struggle for breath. Hailey was furious, her body trembling with anger.

Although she desperately wanted to slap him, Cedric held her hands and feet tightly, rendering her immobile. She could only grit her teeth and express her rage through her words.

"Cedric, do you realize I have a boyfriend?! How am I supposed to face him when you treat me like this?!"

The mention of her boyfriend reignited Cedric's anger that had momentarily subsided.

"I never asked you to break up with him. If you're unwilling, then be prepared to date both of us at the same time!"

He was extremely angry, and as he uttered these words, Hailey stared at him in shock, unable to believe what she was seeing.

"Your moral compass is seriously flawed!"

"No doubt about it!"

Cedric lowered his head, gritting his teeth. "My moral compass is messed up, I'm flawed. I've been abnormal since I was a kid!"

He said this loudly, and his voice echoed throughout the room, leaving Hailey pale with fright.

"Lower your voice!"

"Are you afraid he'll hear?"

Cedric reached out and pinched her face, giving it a firm squeeze.

"Are you afraid he'll see?"

He leaned in closer to Hailey's ear, deliberately blowing on it gently.

"I wouldn't mind live-streaming it for him to watch."

"You're crazy!"

His family pampered him, and no one dared to bully him outside. Women came to him one after another.

Before meeting Hailey, he lived a carefree and unrestricted life every day.

After meeting Hailey, he was afraid of making her unhappy and didn't even speak to her loudly, yet she mentioned breaking up several times.

He understood that Hailey was older than him and thought his behavior was too frivolous for a long-term relationship.

He could change his behavior and not be so frivolous in the future!

Why wouldn't she give him a chance and just outright reject him?

Cedric was at a loss, unsure of how to appease Hailey's anger. As he dwelled on his own grievances, a sudden intense pain gripped his stomach, causing him to double over in agony. The pain was unbearable, and in that moment of vulnerability, Hailey was able to push him away. Caught off guard, Cedric stumbled and fell to the ground.

Drenched in cold sweat, Cedric clutched his stomach, swollen from the effects of heavy drinking. With his blurry, swollen eyes, he looked at Hailey, unable to discern her true emotions. Her face remained impassive, indicating her indifference and lack of concern for him.

"Hmph—"

Despite his excruciating pain, Cedric mustered the strength to rise from the ground. Determined, he approached Hailey, his grip tightening around her waist.
