A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1052

Hailey put down her cup, her face as calm as still water. She looked up at Yeager sitting across from her.

"Before we start drinking, I've got three questions for you. Cool?"

"Huh?"

Yeager also put down his glass, staring at Hailey.

"What are your three questions?"

Hailey whipped out her phone and played a recording for Yeager to hear.

Yeager's face turned gloomy the moment he heard the recording.

"Hailey, did you record this?"

Did she start the recording on her phone when she had gone to the bathroom?

If that was the case, Hailey wasn't as simple as she seemed.

Hailey was taken aback that Yeager's first reaction was to suspect her instead of realizing his own mistake.

She laughed, her eyes brimming with confidence, like a view shrouded in mist - blurry yet captivating.

"I've got no clue who recorded it for me, but I'm grateful. It showed me how you and your parents really think of me."

Hearing her words, Yeager panicked, reaching out to grab her, but Hailey dodged him.

"Yeager, what did you mean by 'how can I give up without getting her'?"

Seeing the disappointment in Hailey's eyes, Yeager knew that she might propose to break up after he answered the three questions.

He no longer denied the authenticity of the recording, but picked up the scissors on the table and snipped the wick of the aromatherapy candle.

The light on the table brightened, and the scent got stronger.

He stared at the flickering candlelight for a while before turning his gaze to Hailey.
