Chapter 1190
When Sigrid and Chase were mentioned, Latonia, always wearing a smile, became slightly more serious, as if thinking about something, and let go of Hailey’s hand
“Don’t get me wrong. I’m not heartless, as parents, who wouldn’t worry about their kids? If you came from a better background, had a higher level of education, had higher demands for yourself, why wouldn’t I accept you?”
The situation with Chase and Sigrid gave Latonia some insight, and she didn’t want to interfere too much in her son’s affairs. But in her view, Hailey was not as capable as Chase, nor was she as good at handling relationships. If she didn’t even like Chase, how could she like Hailey?
“Ms. Vulpe, in aristocratic families, the concept of marrying someone of equal social status is very important, because the education, ideas, foresight. moral values, and knowledge one receives from a young age can be very different. You two are attracted to each other right now, probably just because of hormones. Once this passion passes, you’ll realize how big the gap between you two is.”
Latonia said a lot, and this sentence made Hailey feel very inferior, and it was something she couldn’t refute.
Hailey’s clenched fist slowly relaxed. When she looked up at Latonia again, there was a hint of fatigue in her eyes.
She didn’t speak, looking as if she was wavering, or thinking. Latonia couldn’t figure out what she was thinking, so she continued, “Although Bernard and Eleanor have a big gap in their family backgrounds, Bernard and Cedric are different. Bernard can accept everything about Eleanor, whether it’s her background or her shortcomings. I dare say, even if Eleanor does something wrong, Bernard will still
love her. But Cedric won’t. He’s still a child, completely naive. In his view, the things he can’t get are the best, once he gets them, the excitement disappears. Then, think about what you’re going to do?”
Latonia’s words deeply touched Hailey’s heart. Her innermost fears were all revealed by Latonia, making her feel a tightness in her chest and starting to waver. But because Latonia was too accurate, she had nothing to say
Seeing Hailey’s expression, Latonia knew her words had had an effect. She picked up her expensive handbag from the sofa, opened it, took out a bank card from inside, and handed it to Hailey.
“That’s all I have to say. Ms. Vulpe, think carefully about whether you still want to marry my son. If you choose not to, this card is yours. If you still choose to marry him, your life may be influenced by me. The decision is in your hands.”
With that, Latonia got up and left. Her elegant silhouette, light steps, in Hailey’s eyes, were like a heavy mountain, making her breathless.
This suffocating feeling made her involuntarily pick up the bank card. The dim light shone on Hailey’s face, reflecting a pale light, desolate without a hint of color.
She sat in the coffee shop for a long time, finally put the card in her bag, and got up and left.
When she got home, she filled the bathtub with water, lay in it to relax her tense nerves, and pictured Cedric holding her in the bathtub…
Was Cedric marrying her out of obligation, or did he really love her? Hailey couldn’t get a clear answer to this question. With her thoughts in turmoil, Hailey buried her head in the water, the warm water washing away her fatigue and clearing her thoughts.
Anyway, she had to tell Cedric about Latonia coming to see her and let him make his own decision. Whether Cedric chose his mother or her was up to
Cedric.
If he still insisted on marrying her after knowing about it, she would go and ask his mother for her consent. After all, there’s no harm in asking. But if Cedric chose his mother, they would have no future…
It was simple. There were these two outcomes and there was nothing to be confused about.
Having figured this out, Hailey got up from the bathtub, dried her hair, and dove into bed.
After what happened last night and tonight, she was tired and fell asleep quickly
The next day, when Hailey woke up, it was almost evening, which showed how tired she was.
She got up, freshened up, then picked up her phone, removed Cedric from the blacklist, and called him, but he didn’t answer.
Looking at the time, Hailey figured Cedric should be at home, so she drove straight to Cedric’s villa.
But when she got to the villa, the butler told her that Cedric had been busy and had been staying at an apartment closer to the company, and hadn’t come back to the villa, suggesting that Hailey go to the apartment to find him.
So Hailey had to drive to the apartment.
When she got to the apartment, Cedric wasn’t there. He had been busy preparing for a proposal during the day and had been dragged out for drinks by friends in the evening
Those friends, curious about who he was going to marry, insisted on asking him out for drinks.
Cedric couldn’t resist their call, so he went there, mainly because he wanted to show off to everyone…
