Chapter 985

With his hands all wrapped up in bandages, Yeager pushed open the door to the dean’s office, only to

find Bernard, looking sharp in a black suit

This guy was sitting on the desk, slender, hands in pockets, slightly turned face, like a perfect

sculpture.

beautiful.

His face was stunningly beautiful, features deep, like a work of art, like God’s favorite kid.

But such a man exuded an air of nobility and elegance, like Cedric, an aura that was innate

When Yeager saw Bernard, he had to admit, he felt inferior in front of Cedric, and timid in front of

Bernard

“Do you know why I called you?”

Cold voice, indifferent atmosphere, oppressive feeling. Yeager felt a bit suffocated

He looked up at Bernard, and from those star–like deep eyes, he could feel the killing intent

“I know”

Under Bernard’s cold gaze. Yeager stiffened up, clenched his fists, and walked up to him.

“Did you call me here to avenge Cedric?”

Bernard looked at him from beneath his long lashes, with a penetrating power.

“Avenge is a bit of a stretch. I just want to ask Dr. Yeager, how do you plan to deal with the charges

against Cedric?”

Bernard’s gaze was unfathomable, full of aggression.

Yeager found it difficult to maintain eye contact with Bernard. After a few seconds, he involuntarily

looked away.

“Is such a small matter also something that needs Mr. Laurence to handle personally?” Yeager asked,

attempting to appear nonchalant despite feeling nervous inside.

Knowing he was Hailey’s boyfriend. Yeager felt confident that Bernard wouldn’t take any action against

him, regardless of how he treated Cedric. He assumed Bernard would show restraint for Hailey’s sake,

so he dared to provoke him

However, Bernard seemed to see through Yeager’s thoughts. His eyes flickered with a hint of scornful

amusement.

“I’ve always handled his problems while growing up. Does Dr. Yeager have a problem with that?”

Bernard responded, challenging Yeager.

Yeager shook his head, also revealing a scornful smile.

“It’s nice to have a good brother.”

He scored Cedric, thinking that such a playboy only relied on the protection of his family, and that it was

his brother who had to clean up his mess

If Cedric had no family background, no good looks, he wouldn’t even be able to compare to him, let

alone dream of snatching Hailey away

Bernard saw his disdain, but he had no reaction, not even explaining what family meant, because he

felt it was unnecessary.

“For the sake of Ms. Vulpe, I indeed won’t do anything to you. But you need to explain the charges

against him. I believe Ms. Vulpe won’t mind ”

-The card Yeager was relying on was stated so bluntly by Bernard, making him a bit awkward As the

CEO of the Lawrence Group, Bernard certainly had a decisive way of

speaking

“So, Mr. Laurence, how do you want me to handle this?”

Bernard showed a slight smile.

“What do you think you should do?”

This kind of counter–question undoubtedly gave the decision to Yeager, letting him make his own

choice and pay for his actions.

But Yeager wasn’t willing to give in….

“Mr. Laurence, suppose Garett kept trying to get back with your wife–what would you do?” Yeager

asked boldly, seemingly unafraid to address the sensitive issue.

Hearing this, Liana and Aidyn, who stood nearby, exchanged glances, impressed by Yeager’s audacity

to bring up Garett. They knew Garett was Eleanor’s first love and someone she had been emotionally

attached to for many years–a subject that was off limits for Bernard and an obstacle he could never

overcome in his lifetime. As Hailey’s boyfriend, Yeager should have been aware of this history between

Garett and Eleanor. Even if he wasn’t, when Hailey introduced him to Garett, he should have sensed

that there was something significant there

By comparing Garett to Cedric, Yeager seemed to underestimate Bernard’s potential reaction. Did he

genuinely believe that Bernard wouldn’t take any action against him just because of Hailey’s presence?

The situation was filled with tension, and all parties wondered how Bernard would respond to Yeager’s

daring question.
