A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1219

Soon it was just Cedric and Hailey left in the operating room. Cedric was radiating a cold aura, while Hailey was lying on the operating table.

"Why?" Cedric stood by, not saying anything extra, just asked this one question.

Hailey glanced at Marina standing outside the operating room, furrowed her eyebrows, then turned to Cedric.

"There's no reason..." She knew Cedric had come, the surgery couldn't be done anymore, so she got up from the operating table, but Cedric grabbed her wrist. His strength was so great that his fingers dug deeply into her skin. Hailey's face turned pale from the pain, but she gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound.

Seeing her silent and not looking at him, Cedric couldn't help but feel angry, "Hailey, is this your answer to me?" They had agreed before that when they returned home, she would give him an answer. He didn't expect her answer to be secretly aborting his child.

From the moment Cedric received Marina's call, his hopeful heart suddenly turned cold. He had put in so much effort, only to be shattered by Hailey's constant rejection.

"Hailey, tell me why. After I get the answer, I won't bother you anymore," he said. He was tired and had enough, but he wanted to understand why.

Hailey lowered her eyes, slowly looked up at Cedric. There should be a closure for both of them, and the way to do it was to make things clear.

"I don't believe you and Hertha didn't have sex," Hailey said. Hearing this, Cedric's face fell.

"She explained very clearly that she was scheming. Why don't you believe it?" Cedric asked.

"Because she gave me a tape recorder later, her so-called explanation was just an excuse because she was driven to despair by your mother," Hailey replied. After hearing this, Cedric had some doubts, but he also believed his mother would do such a thing, he wouldn't doubt Hailey's words.

"Hailey, I'm not sure whether my mother forced her or not. As for the tape recording, I also don't know. All I know is that I didn't do it," he said, raising his hands and grabbing Hailey's shoulders, looking at her seriously, "I’m telling you, I didn't do it, do you believe me?"

Hailey shook her head, "No."

Cedric got the message, he lost because she didn't trust him.

"I've been entangled with you for five years, during these five years, I've only cared about you, don't you see that?" he said, his eyes gradually filling with tears, "Why would you rather believe others than me?"
