Chapter 1082
Hailey is a hothead. She instantly agreed and after a few drinks, she realized that Sigrid wasn’t even
tipsy, herplexion was normal and she was smiling at her
Only then did Hailey realize that beneath Sigrid’s gentle exterior, there was a wild side. She
immediately decided she wouldn’t drink with her anymore. “Forget it, I surrender, no more drinking.
Signd, however, pulled her back with augh. “Hailey, if you’re going to surrender, at least do it with
some conviction.”
Hailey went silent.
She imagined herself staying at Eleanor’s ce, sitting on the couch with Bernard, which was better
than that!
1 really made a mistake,” she sighed
“What do you want to hear from me?” Sigrid asked, holding her wine ss, turning around, and leaning
against the bar counter, gazing at the bustling street outside.
“Tell me about Cedric ”

Hailey’s gaze dimmed
“Do you think I have the right to mention Cedric?” Hailey questioned.
Sigrid withdrew her gaze and looked at Hailey, who felt inadequate inparison
“As long as you are willing, what does having the right even matter?” The disdain for societal norms in
Sigrid’s words made Hailey feel that Sigrid’s inner maturity surpassed her own
Indeed, having experienced such intense and painful love and having suffered from depression, how
could Sigrid not be mature?
But Hailey didn’t know how to respond to her question. She stared at her red wine, silent for a moment
before she finally spoke.
“I’m not getting married again.”
She didn’t mention Cedric, but her answer made everything clear.
Sigrid knew well, when a woman no longer loves a man, she would say it without hesitation, like she
did.
But Hailey was holding back. Not getting married again was self–restraint, but it didn’t mean she no
longer loved Cedric
She felt that her brother still had a chance, but how to seize this opportunity was up to him.
“What about you?”
Hailey turned her head to look at Sigrid, who was leaning against the bar counter with her.
In the spacious apartment, they didn’t turn on all the lights, only the warm lights in the bar area.
A few soft warm lights were shining above their heads, casting a warm glow.
“Are you asking about Chase, or Peterson Sharp?”
Seeing her talking about Chase in such a light tone, Hailey knew she had genuinely moved on.
“Can’t you give Chase another chance?”
After knowing about Chase’s situation, Hailey also felt sorry for him. He had lost everything.
“Eleanor experienced life and death, and she still gave Bernard a chance. You and Chase only had a
misunderstanding, why…”
“The reason Eleanor forgave Bernard was that she still loved him deep down. If she forced herself to
stop loving him like I did, Bernard wouldn’t have a chance in this lifetime”
Sigrid saw through everything, gently interrupting Hailey
Hailey looked at Sigrid for a few seconds, then slowly looked away.
“What about Peterson?”
Since she had moved on, there was no need to talk about Chase
“He seems to have someone he likes.”
“Huh?” Hailey didn’t understand, he even rushed over to marry you.”
“If one’s heart is dead, it doesn’t matter who they marry”
Peterson gave her the impression of being indifferent to everything.
After thinking about it, Peterson saying that the person he liked was already married might be true.
Only after losing a loved one would one feel it didn’t matter who they married as long as the person
was suitable.
Like her, in the past.
“But that’s not fair to you
Sigrid looked at Hailey and gave a slight smile.
“Hailey, don’t worry. He’s not interested in me and I don’t feel anything for him”
She believed that Peterson would message her soon, apologizing. “Sorry, Ms. Laurence, maybe we
should reconsider.”
“And what was going on with you two recently?”
“We were just putting on a show”
