    Chapter 243


    Hailey apologized, need to take a phone call”


    Eleanor nodded, and after Hailey hurriedly left the bedroom and closed the door.


    She knew that a lot must have happened in the three years, but she didn’t expect Hailey and Cedric..


    Outside the door, Hailey held her phone and whispered, 1 have to hang out with a friend tonight, so I


    might not be able to make it


    Cedric held a wine ss, paused for a moment, “What friend?”


    Hailey vaguely replied, “A female friend.”

    Cedric said tly, “Bummer.”


    After hanging up the phone, Hailey exhaled, turned around, and walked back into the bedroom.


    Seeing Eleanor sitting quietly on the bed waiting for her, Hailey felt a bit uneasy.


    She approached and sat on the edge of the bed, gathering her courage to confess to Eleanor, I’m


    sorry, Eleanor, I know I shouldn’t be involved with anyone from the Laurence family, especially since


    Bernard once hurt you…”


    Eleanor interrupted her gently, “It’s okay, Hailey, don’t worry about me. As long as you’re happy. But


    just…


    She showed a hint of concern on her face, “Cedric is well-known for being a yb oy, he’s had many


    women around him, you might get hurt being with him…


    It’s okay as long as you don’t fall in love with this type of men, but if you do, you’ll end up with scars all


    over your heart. Just like Eleanor once was. Hailey replied in a rxed tone, “Don’t worry, I’m with him


    for the sake of revenge”


    Eleanor asked with confusion, What revenge?”


    Hailey clenched her fist, angnly saying, “Joelle, Sophie, Bernard, those three hurt you, and almost


    killed you, of course, I have to take revenge! Hearing these names, Eleanor’s heart pained. How could


    Hailey possibly handle them?


    She immediately stood up, checking Hailey’s body while asking, “Are you alright? Have they done


    anything to you? It’s too dangerous for you to seek revenge on them.”


    Hailey smiled and assured her, Tm fine. I didn’t get hurt,”


    Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good. Leave the revenge to me. Il find a way to deal with


    them!”


    Hailey shook her head. “You don’t need to do anything. Joelle and Sophie have already received their


    retribution.”


    Eleanor frowned, not understanding what she meant, “What retribution?”


    Hailey took out a cigarette, ying with it while telling her, I wanted to teach Joelle a lesson, but


    someone already sold her to a nightclub. By the time the Stanley family got her out, she had be a


    madwoman”


    Hailey continued, “Sophie ended up with the same fate, with people regrly humiliating her every


    month… Although they didn’t do anything too outrageous, they’ve been torturing her”


    “My targets could only be shifted toward Bernard, but over these three years, he’s be more and


    more powerful. First, he assimted the Stanley family and the Ratliff family, then invested in the


    Clowers Group. Now, he’s pretty much unbeatable.”


    really didn’t know what else to do, so I used the foolish method of trying to seduce Cedric, rece


    Norene, and be his woman.”


    “I wanted to use Cedric’s power to get back at Bernard, but obviously, I was too dumb. Cedric would


    never go against his brother for a woman. After understanding that, I tried to back out; but Cedric just


    wouldn’t let me go..
