A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 725

Hailey and Liana swiveled their heads at the same time, looking at the woman who was questioning them.

She appeared fragile—the kind that easily triggered men's protective instincts.

Liana didn't recognize her. But Hailey did, in a heartbeat. She was Cedric's first love, the one he was hugging in the pictures he'd posted.

Hailey hadn't expected that Cedric would bring his first love to the wedding. It was like he was publicly declaring their relationship.

Hailey's gaze drifted to the man sitting on the stage. He was smiling.

It seemed like he was pretty content with the current situation. At least he had stopped messing around and started dating seriously with marriage in mind.

Even though the person he was going to marry wasn't Hailey.

Without answering, Liana spoke up, "We're friends of the bride; we just happen to know the bridesmaids and groomsmen."

The girl's guard came down after hearing this, and she looked at them, smiling, and asked, "I am Cedric's girlfriend, Hertha."

Liana froze for a few seconds, subconsciously glancing at Hailey next to her but keeping her facial expression unchanged. She nodded at Hertha and said, "Hello."

After greeting her, Liana turned her head back, occasionally sneaking glances at Hailey from the corner of her eye.

Seeing that there weren't any significant emotional changes on Hailey's face, she sighed in relief.

Cedric and Hailey must have broken up. Once the wedding was over and they were back home, Hailey would be choosing a boyfriend at the ball.

The wedding ceremony in the castle was nearing its end.

Eleanor stood on the lawn with the bouquet in her hand, her back to the unmarried men and women, ready to throw the bouquet behind her.
