A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 777

After a few rounds of games, Hailey noticed that Yeager Alis didn't seem to frequent these kinds of entertainment spots, and he was even bad at playing cards.

She took a longer look at Yeager Alis. "You don't smoke, drink, or play around, do you?"

Yeager Alis had a good hand but didn't know how to play it. He chuckled and said, "Yeah, I don't smoke, drink, or mess around."

He was nothing like Cedric. Yeager Alis was clean-cut and free from any bad influence, making him a good boyfriend.

But it seemed unfair to him that he became her boyfriend after an argument with Cedric.

Yeager Alis saw her staring blankly at him, and he smiled gently and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Hailey shook her head and looked down at her cards. As she did so, her hair fell over her eyes.

Just as she was about to brush it aside, a slender hand reached out and tucked the hair behind her ear.

His fingertips brushed her cheek.

Hailey was taken aback. She couldn't put a finger on her feelings, only that things were moving a bit fast between them.

But it was she who asked Yeager Alis to be her boyfriend at the blind date banquet yesterday. Since they were a couple now, it wasn't a big deal to progress quickly.

Feeling a bit shy, Hailey thanked Yeager Alis.

To which he replied gently, "Hailey, I'm your boyfriend now; there's no need to thank me."

Hailey nodded but didn't dare look up at Yeager Alis. To the people outside, it looked like she was being shy.

After getting rejected by Aidyn, Cedric had a few drinks, hoping to drown his sorrows and avoid going to the nightclub.

But he overestimated himself. When he was drunk, all he could think of was Hailey.

He missed her so much that he lost control of himself and staggered to the nightclub with a bottle in his hand.

He wanted to ask Hailey why he missed her so much, as if she had put a spell on him.

But what he saw when he arrived at the nightclub was her playing cards with her new boyfriend.

Back when Hailey was with him, he'd always be the one to tuck her hair behind her ear.

Now...
