Hailey helped Cedric into the underground parking lot, opened the car door, hoisted him into the passenger seat, buckled him up, walked around the car hood, and slid into the driver’s seat.
Before starting the car, Hailey turned to look at Cedric who was pressing his head in pain, "What's your home address?"
Cedric owned a private villa in B City, but he never brought Hailey there when they were a thing, so she didn't know the place at all.
Cedric, with his eyes shut, handed over his phone to her, "Open the GPS, the address is there."
He then added, "The password is your birthday."
Hailey's hand trembled slightly as she took the phone. Back when they were still dating, she had once asked Cedric to set her birthday as his phone password. But Cedric, being the stubborn mule that he was, always refused. And now, two years after their break-up, he had set her birthday as the password.
Frowning, Hailey unlocked the phone, opened the GPS, found the address, and headed for Cedric's villa in B City.
Cedric, with one hand propping his forehead, didn't dare to look at her and just kept glancing at the rearview mirror. After dozens of glances, he opened the glove compartment, pulled out a black bank card and handed it to her.
"This card is yours."
He had given her a card with unlimited credit before. She had returned it after they broke up, and now he was giving it back to her, presumably to pay for the expenses at the hotel.
"No need. I have money."
If there was one thing she didn't lack at the moment, it was money.
Cedric knew she didn't need money, but he still stuffed the card into her bag, "Just in case."
The truth was, Hailey had never used his money or his cards during all the time they were together. At most, she just kept them for him.
She gave Cedric a glance, wanting to say something, but he had closed his eyes again, so she kept quiet.
The car soon stopped in front of the villa. The butler at the door saw someone helping Cedric out of the car and immediately came to assist, but was met with a glare from Cedric and quickly stopped.
The butler got the hint and pretended as if he hadn't seen anything. By the time Hailey had brought Cedric back to his room, there was no sign of the butler or any other staff.
"Why don't you hire any housekeepers?"
"I don't live here often, no need for housekeepers."
