A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 297

He was lounging about in his white suit, nursing a drink.

Seemingly aloof, his eyes were fixated on the woman who was guzzling down bottles of alcohol.

She was dressed in a black deep-V gown that accentuated her figure. Under the lights, she looked both seductive and innocent.

Her face, with its bold and delicate features, was flushed from the alcohol, making her already smooth skin look even more radiant. Her aura outshone even the top hostess in the room. Many rich boys couldn't help but take interest in this powerful presence named Hailey.

Cedric noticed the men ogling at the cleavage exposed by her deep-V neckline. With a darkened expression, he hurled his drink across the room.

The shattering sound of the glass disrupted Hailey as she was reaching for her third bottle of booze.

She looked up at Cedric, flushed and giving him a professionally polite smile. "Cedric, is something bothering you?"

Seeing her flirtatious smile, Cedric felt a wave of discomfort and coldly said, "Get out!"

Hailey was taken aback. She was brought here with a hefty sum to just drink two bottles of alcohol?

But since he had spoken, she knew there was no need to stay. She put down the bottle, smiled at them, and said, "I won't bother you guys then. Drinks are on the house tonight. Have fun!"

After saying this, she walked out.

The manager waiting outside couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, "Boss, you are incredible to handle them so quickly."

Hailey's smile gradually faded. As she walked away, she couldn't help but look back.

Cedric was already cuddling another woman, playing games as if nothing had happened.

She frowned slightly, pulled her gaze back, and headed towards the office.
