Cedric felt a suffocating sensation, clearly furious as he grabbed Hailey's cheeks.
"Is he your boyfriend?"
He looked extremely annoyed.
"I'll make Yeager disappear from your life tomorrow. Let's see who dares to be your boyfriend!"
Mr. Laurence's ability to make people vanish was widely known throughout the city of A City, including by Hailey herself. However, she struggled to comprehend Cedric's motives behind such actions.
Raising her head, Hailey locked eyes with Cedric, her confusion and frustration evident. "Mr. Laurence, you have the privilege of intimacy with your girlfriend. So why do you wish to make him disappear? What gives you the right?"
She questioned Cedric's authority over others' lives when he seemed unable to control his own emotions. How could he expect to govern her feelings and love?
Cedric, realizing Hailey's anger, swiftly released his hold on her cheeks and instead enveloped her in an embrace, attempting to bridge the emotional gap between them.
"Hailey, I haven't had any physical contact with Hertha, not even a kiss...Since we broke up, I haven't had any contact with any woman..."
It had been a long time since he had any physical contact with a woman. At first, he thought he had lost interest in women, but later he realized that ever since he broke up with Hailey, he didn't want any physical contact with anyone.
He didn't quite understand this feeling, but he knew that his world had undergone a tremendous change, all because of Hailey.
"Hailey, break up with Yeager Alis. I can't stand you being together. I'm really afraid..."
He was afraid that if he didn't take action, they would become intimate. Just imagining them together in bed was enough to make him incredibly uneasy.
He had considered giving himself ten days or half a month, believing he could forget Hailey, but he couldn't resist coming to see her.
He didn't expect that before he could even meet her, he saw them tightly embracing outside a nightclub, and by the time he caught up, they were already kissing.
Gripping the steering wheel tightly, he hoped against hope that he had misunderstood the situation.
Only when Hailey confirmed it did Cedric realize that they had indeed kissed. If their relationship continued on this path, consequences were inevitable.
"Hailey, end things with him. I'll marry you," Cedric proclaimed, driven by his longing for a family, as Eleanor had once shared with him the longing of orphans like them.
