A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 243

Hailey apologized, "I need to take a phone call."

Eleanor nodded, and after Hailey hurriedly left the bedroom and closed the door.

She knew that a lot must have happened in the three years, but she didn't expect Hailey and Cedric...

Outside the door, Hailey held her phone and whispered, "I have to hang out with a friend tonight, so I might not be able to make it."

Cedric held a wine glass, paused for a moment, "What friend?"

Hailey vaguely replied, "A female friend."

Cedric said flatly, "Bummer."

After hanging up the phone, Hailey exhaled, turned around, and walked back into the bedroom.

Seeing Eleanor sitting quietly on the bed waiting for her, Hailey felt a bit uneasy.

She approached and sat on the edge of the bed, gathering her courage to confess to Eleanor, "I'm sorry, Eleanor, I know I shouldn't be involved with anyone from the Laurence family, especially since Bernard once hurt you..."

Eleanor interrupted her gently, "It’s okay, Hailey, don't worry about me. As long as you’re happy. But just..."

She showed a hint of concern on her face, "Cedric is well-known for being a playboy, he's had many women around him, you might get hurt being with him..."

It's okay as long as you don't fall in love with this type of men, but if you do, you'll end up with scars all over your heart. Just like Eleanor once was.
