Chapter 978
“if you think I’m a jerk, then you can choose to leave me I won’tin, just
He took a deep breath, gripped Hailey’s hand again, and ced it in his own palm
“I’ve liked you since high school my feelings for you have always been genuine and unchanged If it
wasn’t for Mr. Laurence, I wouldn’t have be like this.
He exined what happened yesterday, admitted his mistakes, expressed his desires openly med
Cedric, and chose to step back
“Now you want to let go of my hand? The choice is yours”
Hailey stared at Yeager’s clear and bright eyes, a bit confused for a moment
–| ?
“I know in your heart you prefer Cedric. If you choose to leave me, choose him, I’ve got nothing to say
Prefer Cednic

Yes, she couldn’t let go of Cedric, while being with Yeager at the same time, which was unfair to
Yeager. So, even the nice guy Yeager, would provoke Cedric and say some nasty things because of
her, all of this was actually her fault….
Tm sorry. Yeager, I didn’tpletely cut off ties with him, which led you to do some disgraceful things,
I.”
“You’re about to let go of my hand, right?”
The smile at the corner of Yeager’s mouth grew more bitter, as if he was prepared to be abandoned by
her, but his heart was in extreme pain.
“It’s okay, as long as you and Mr. Laurence are happy, just think of me as a brief passerby
He finished speaking, held Hailey’s hand to his cheek, then painfully let go of her hand.
Seeing that Hailey didn’t hold his hand in return, Yeager’s eyes were filled with loss, as if he was falling
into the abyss.
“You take care of yourself, I’ll go now”
As he got up, he identally hit the corner of the table, rubbing his thigh in pain as he rushed to leave,
leaving Hailey clenching her fist.
She sat in the restaurant, staring nkly at the table, when suddenly Marina’s panicked voice came
from outside-
“Haileye quick, Dr. Yeager had a car ident!”
Hailey’s heart raced. She immediately got up and ran outside, seeing Yeager’s car crashed into a wall,
the front end caved in, smoke billowing
in a state of panic, Hailey screamed and rushed over to the car. Through the window, she saw Yeager’s
slumped form, his face against the airbag, and a deep cut on the hand that had been gripping the
steering wheel, blood pouring out.
Desperate to help him, she tried to open the car door, but it was locked. She frantically pounded on the
window, urging him to wake up. “You need to wake up! Open the car
door quickly!”
Yeager, though still somewhat conscious, managed to twitch his eyshes slightly Seeing Hailey’s
distress as she desperately knocked on the window, his eyes gradually cleared
Despite the pain, he tried to reach for the unlock button. As soon as the door opened, Hailey quickly
moved to assist him.
“Are you okay?”
The helped–out Yeager leaned against the door, sitting on the ground
“I’m fine
“Your hand is cut, are you hurt anywhere else?”
Hailey was some what worried, carefully checking Yeager’s injuries, but Yeager tightly gripped her
hand.
“Hailey, don’t worry, only my hand is hurt, the rest of me is fine.”
“We should still go to the hospital to check”
Hailey helped him up. Marina by the side said, “I’ve called an ambnce, it will be here soon
Upon hearing this news, Hailey didn’t forcibly drag Yeager away, “Marina, can you get me a first aid kit?
Let’s stop the bleeding first.”
Yeager is a surgeon if his hand is injured, how will he perform surgeries in the future? We must make
sure that there is no problem with his hand.
Marina quickly brought over hemostatic powder and gauze, and when Hailey sprinkled the powder on
the wound. Yeager couldn’t help but cry out in pain.
“Does it hurt a lot? Il be gentipe
Hailey’s movements graddally became gentler
Yeager looked at the fully concentrated Hailey who was stopping his bleeding, he couldn’t help but grip
her hand again
“Hailey, I just realized that breaking up is so painful. I don’t know how I’m going to get through the days
without you.
The warmth passing between their fingers made Hailey freeze in her tracks
She looked up at Yeager, his hair all wild and messy, his forehead slick with cold sweat He looked like a
completely different person from the gentleman she first met. She knew that all this disarray was
because of her
Yeager had racked his brain to keep her by his side, including the strategic moves he just made. Hailey
had seen it all. But he also honestly told her that all this was because Cedric wouldn’t let go of her
The blood trickling from Yeager’s hand dripped onto Hailey’s, causing her to hesitate for a long while
before she raised her hand again to stop his bleeding
“Have you set a date to meet with your parents?”
Yeager looked puzzled at her sudden question
“Yeah, they’reing back next month”
After saying this, Yeager added
“Don’t worry, when I go back, I’ll call and cancel their trip.”
Hailey paused for a moment before lifting her head to look at him.
“If you’ve already set a date, then don’t change it
Yeager was taken aback, then quickly caught on
“You. You’re not nning to break up with me?”
Hailey shook her head firmly
“No.”
She’s not the kind of person who changes her mind easily. Yeager hadn’t done anything fundamentally
wrong, he just did some shady things out of fear of Cedric. It wouldn’t be fair to ditch Yeager just for
that.
Seeing that Hailey had no intention of breaking up, Yeager was overjoyed Ignoring the wound on his
hand, he pulled Hailey into a tight hug.
“I thought after today, I wouldn’t get another chance to be with you…”
He rested his chin on Hailey’s shoulder, saying with great affection,
“Hailey, thank you for choosing to forgive me”
Hailey didn’t say anything, just gently patting his back.
“Let’s head to the hospital first”
After Yeager was treated and stitched up at the hospital, Hailey sat down in front of his bed.
“Mr. Laurence was wrongly used, we need to give him a fair treatment. I’ll go see him now,
apologize and then cut off all contact. Will you mind?”
Hailey’s words meant she nned to sever ties with Cedric. Yeager, being the smart guy he is, caught
her drift.
“I won’t mind, but the person who should apologize is me, not you. After all, I’m the one who wrongly
used him,”
“You don’t need to go.”
Hailey shook her head, and Yeager’s eyes fell
“I know that Mr. Laurence, like me, doesn’t want to see me and you together”
Hailey could see the pain written all over Yeager’s face. Gazing into his handsome features, she spoke
calmly, “I truly want to marry you and build a life together Once Imit to someone, I’m loyal and
won’t easily change my mind, unless you betray me. So, you don’t need to worry about Mr. Laurence
anymore, and please don’t provoke him. If you repeat this mistake, I won’t be able to forgive you.”
Her words were firm and resolute. Harley made it clear that she wouldn’t tolerate any further
provocations towards Cedric, and her love had its limits
Yeager understood the gravity of her words. He looked at her and nodded, promising, “Okay, I hear you
I won’t provoke him again.”
Although he acknowledged that his actions weren’t entirely fair, he believed that keeping the love of his
life by his side was worth taking a different approach.
Yeager didn’t see anything wrong with using certain tactics to get what he wanted. He should do
everything possible to fight for it!
After clearing things up with Yeager, Hailey left to go to the hospital where Cedric was
As soon as she got in the car, Eleanor called
“Hailey, did you ask Yeager? Did he tell you what nasty things he said?”
While driving. Hailey answered Eleanor’s question “He didn’t tell me what he said exactly, but it’s not
important now I’ve made up my mind”
