Chapter 799
Chase was leaning against the pillar at the hotel entrance
Smoking a cig and staring at the bustling B City, his eyes gradually became blurry
After puffing on a few sticks, he got bored, tossed the butt, hand in pocket, and headed to the top floor
of the hotel.
Upon entering, he spotted Cedric sitting in the lounge area, a glass in hand, hiding in the dim light.
The ladies around were trying to catch his eye, but he seemed unresponsive, like a man who’d lost his
soul………
Chase lingered at the door for a moment, then walked over and sat next to him.
“What’s up? Lost interest in women, or is something bothering you?”
Cedric, the lazy bum lounging on the couch, shot him a cold glance.
“If you’ve got nothing to say, Zip it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChase chuckled lightly, took the drink handed over by the waiter, and took a big gulp.
“Is this disoriented look of yours because of Hertha?”
He knew what his bro was thinking, but he just had to push his buttons.
“If you miss her, I can give her a call. She’d be here in a heartbeat”
Cedric glanced at Chase, then spoke in a low voice, not bothering to refute him
Witnessing Cedric in such a state was a first for Chase, surpassing even the time when he was
unexpectedly dumped by Hertha during his first relationship.
Checking his watch, Chase estimated that after a shower and some time to adjust his mood, it would
be time to address the matter at hand. If he delayed any further, the woman Cedric couldn’t forget
might bid him farewell forever.
Grabbing a bottle of hard liquor, Chase handed it to Cedric, offering a proposition. “Down this, and I
have news for you.”
“I’m not interested, Cedric replied dismissively, his current state of mind rendering him indifferent to
anything If it weren’t for the contractual obligations in B City, he wouldn’t even consider leaving the
confines of his home.
Observing Cedric’s demeanor, Chase placed the glass on the table, lit a cigarette, and began to speak.
“It’s about Hailey”
Finishing his sentence, Chase glanced at Cedric, noticing a subtle change in his handsome face,
though he remained relatively unresponsive.
Chase quirked an eyebrow. “Not even interested in the woman you’ve doted on for three years?”
Cedric chuckled lightly. “Women mean nothing to me. How could I have doted on her for three years?”
Chase said leisurely: “I don’t know who it was, but when our bros made fun of her being divorced, you
immediately got into a fight.” –
With that, Chase kicked him lightly, “Hey, I remember that was your first fight, right?”
He remembered that for a woman, Cedric even got into a fight with his own brothers, and it ended up at
the police station.

But the irony was, Hailey had no idea, she even thought he didn’t want to take her out because she
was divorced.
Cedric didn’t want to hear Chase mocking him about the past, telling him to shut up, but Chase kept
yapping on.
“And another time, Ms. Vulpe called you saying she had a stomachache. You braved the rain in the
dead of night to get her medicine.”
“You even remembered her menstrual cycle. Isn’t that special treatment?”
Mr. Laurence had many girlfriends, but he was always the one being taken care of, never seen him
take care of someone like this.
So this woman named Hailey, was obviously special to Cedric…
