After Hailey took Yeager to the hospital, she wasn't afraid of making a scene and went straight to the cops.
Cedric was taken to the police station after returning to his villa in B City.
Worried that the police in the B City would notify the Laurence family, he obediently climbed into the police car.
As soon as he arrived at the station, he saw Hailey Vulpe holding an ice bag to Yeager's face.
He snorted in annoyance, turning his head away, only to be pushed by the police towards the interrogation room.
When asked why he hit someone, his only response was to tell them to call his lawyer.
Chase was roused from sleep by the police, and rushed to the station without even changing his clothes to sort out Cedric's mess.
It took a lot of negotiation with the police for them to agree to handle the situation privately. But the police warned:
"If Ms. Vulpe sues Mr. Laurence for harassment, it may end up in court," Chase acknowledged, nodding in understanding.
Chase entered the interrogation room, asking Cedric to join him in apologizing to the victims, Hailey and Yeager.
Cedric fiercely refused, stating, "I'd rather be detained than apologize to them."
Chase rolled his eyes at Cedric's defiance, threatening, "If you don't go, I'll call Bernard and Veronica Laurence."
Cedric frowned but turned away stubbornly, saying, "Go ahead, I won't apologize to Hailey and Yeager, even if they come."
He believed that Yeager provoked him and Hailey infuriated him, making an apology unnecessary.
If it wasn't for wanting to protect the Laurence family's reputation in B City, he would have dealt with this issue long ago. He wouldn't let them walk all over him!
Hailey didn't expect Yeager to be so understanding. She was stunned. Then Yeager's voice rang again in her ears:
"Hailey, you said in the hotel that you wanted to break up with me. What about now? Do you still want to break up?"
Now...
Hailey looked at the wounds on Yeager's face, and after a moment of silence, she firmly said, "No, I don't want to break up. I'll fight him to the end!"
She didn't believe that Cedric could continue to act so recklessly. If he continued to mess around, she would fight him tooth and nail. Let's see what he can do!
Just as Chase emerged from the interrogation room, he heard Hailey's words. He turned around to look at Cedric, who was staring at them through the glass.
Chase thought to himself, Cedric really shouldn't have been so impulsive. Now look, he's pushed the woman he likes into another man's arms. Isn't that asking for trouble?
