Chapter 1243

Netizens were taken aback. Cedric Laurence, often referred to as the city’s most eligible bachelor,

spent so long pursuing a woman? Many couldn’t believe it, thinking Cedric’s words to be insincere. Yet,

his final statement. “I would spend a lifetime, asking her to be with me for the rest of ours,” truly left an

impression. Everyone eagerly anticipated the future unfolding between Cedric and Hailey.

Regardless of what the future held, Cedric and Hailey were living their lives. What others thought

wasn’t important. All that mattered was their happiness.

Reading the news, Austin was utterly shocked. He stared at the radiant image of Hailey on his screen,

feeling he was surely mistaken. He rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked again, scrutinizing every

feature on Hailey’s face. Only then was he sure his ex-wife had married into one of the wealthiest

families – the Laurence family!

Austin could not believe it. After their divorce, his life was a series of miseries. Swamped in debt,

constantly hounded by creditors, and struggling to care for Allysha and their child, Austin barely had a

moment to breathe, looking more worn each day.

Meanwhile, Hailey seemed to be thriving. Not only had she ran a successful nightclub, but now she

was the lady of the Laurence estate. How could Austin accept this?

in frustration, Austin took to the internet, berating Hailey. He claimed she’d left her first husband to

marry into wealth and accused her of having relations with Cedric even before their divorce. Some

netizens believed him, further fueling the gossip. Taking solace in his online allies, Austin began

spewing even more vitriol about Hailey online.

Just as the rumors grew, someone posted revealing that Austin was the actual cheater. Accusations

surfaced about Austin’s deceits during their marriage, suggesting he not only cheated but conned

Hailey out of money and property. Claims even hinted at inappropriate actions involving his own sister.

Austin tried to counter, but a slew of undeniable evidence went viral. Soon, his posts were flooded with

criticisms.

Between Austin’s defamation and the subsequent truth unveiling, Hailey’s reputation swung from

tarnished to admirable. People soon perceived her as a strong, independent woman. She was

deceived by her ex-husband yet worked hard, eventually becoming a successful entrepreneur. Though

her stature couldn’t compare to the Laurence family, her hard-earned wealth granted her a worry-free

life. She became a beacon of inspiration for many.

Watching the turn of events, Chase McCall, the silent orchestrator, put down his phone. Looking across

the yacht’s deck where Cedric stood holding Hailey, admiring the ocean view, the two shared a

knowing smile.

The wedding ceremony concluded, but the yacht’s festivities were far from over. The older people

gathered on the second deck, dining and chatting, while the younger crowd congregated on the

rooftop, engrossed in games.

That was initiated by Elbert, who wanted a rematch against Bernard after losing in a motorcycle video

game. Cedric and Hailey, though initially reluctant, eventually joined the fun. Since Hailey was

pregnant, they couldn’t do anything on their first night, why not stay and have fun?

In the end, the couple, along with Chase, the Laurence siblings, and Sigrid joined the gathering. Sigrid,

concerned about Garett feeling left out, insisted he attend.

So, atop the yacht, under the open sky, a diverse group lounged on plush sofas, all eyes on Bernard,

eagerly awaiting the next round.
