A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1071

"I'm not saying I don't trust you, it's just that I'm a bit scared. If you can promise me that you won't cheat after marriage, then give it some time before you pursue Hailey. Don't push her too hard right now."

Upon hearing this, Cedric looked surprised and lifted his head.

"Eleanor, you called me here, isn't it to keep me away from Hailey?"

Eleanor responded with a warm smile.

"My point still stands, it's all up to you. If your feelings for Hailey are genuine and she's willing to accept you, I won't stand in your way."

Cedric didn't expect Eleanor to be so understanding. A small smile crept up on his face.

"Thank you, Eleanor."

Eleanor shook her head with a smile.

"Go keep her company, I need to find Bernard, no idea where he's off to."

As she was about to leave, Cedric stopped her.

"Eleanor, when you said that Hailey has feelings for me, was that for real?"

Eleanor turned to look at him, a puzzled expression on her face.

"Can't you tell for yourself?"

Cedric reflected on when he brought Hailey to the hospital. Was it because she had feelings for him that she explained her situation, afraid that he might think she was tainted? Thinking that Hailey might also like him, Cedric felt a sense of relief.

"Eleanor, you should head back."

Watching Cedric wave goodbye, Eleanor chuckled in resignation.

Cedric hurried into the ward and saw Hailey applying medicine on her own. He took over.

"Lie down and don't move, let me do it."

Hailey glanced at him, noticing his cheery expression, she furrowed her brows.

"What did Eleanor say to you?"

Cedric, focused on applying the medicine, slowed his movements.
