Yeager had planned to hit the golf course with his buddies, and brought Hailey along to introduce to them. But he didn't expect to bump into Cedric here.
Instinctively, he tightened his grip on Hailey's hand. Hailey, who hadn't noticed Cedric, was drawn by his sudden movement and followed his gaze to Cedric.
Standing on the lush green golf course, Cedric was dressed in casual whites, a baseball cap on his head, and a golf club in hand. Under the parasol, he looked like a painting.
Lately, during her dates with Yeager, she had coincidentally bumped into Cedric a few times. But each time, Yeager chose to avoid him. Hailey knew he would do the same this time, so she quickly looked away.
"Let's go change in the locker room."
Hailey wanted to lead Yeager towards the locker room, but the path to the locker room was right behind Cedric, they had to circumvent him.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet, leading Yeager past Cedric.
She thought he would just ignore her, but Cedric suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"Let's talk."
His fingers were warm, the heat transferring through her skin, feeling like an electric current.
Every time Cedric touched her, her body would react this way, causing her to always be a beat behind, and many times, she dared not move casually.
But when she was with Yeager, she didn't have this feeling.
Even when holding hands tightly, she felt calm, without any excitement.
Involuntarily comparing the two in her mind, Hailey felt guilty towards Yeager, so she immediately shook off Cedric's hand.
"We've already talked everything through last time, there's no need to talk again."
Cedric tried to grab Hailey's hand again, but Yeager stepped up and shielded her.
