A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 117

The moment Eleanor saw Josef, her heart skipped a beat, and fear and tension immediately filled her chest.

"Mr. Caporal…"

Her face turned pale with fright, and her voice trembled.

Seeing her so scared, Josef tilted his head slightly, "Ms. Shultz, long time no see."

Eleanor was shaking all over but she managed to keep her composure, "Mr. Caporal, what brings you to the ladies' room to find me?"

Josef seemed to laugh, "Nothing much, just wanted to thank you."

He then removed the mask from his face, revealing a mouth sewn with over a dozen stitches.

The dense stitches looked horrifying, causing Eleanor to take a step back.

But Josef didn't seem to care, beckoning her with his finger, "Come here."

Eleanor shook her head and turned to run towards the nearby washroom.

The two bodyguards who were following behind Josef, each holding an iron rod, immediately rushed forward upon seeing this.

After blocking her escape, the guards grabbed her arms, one on each side, and brought her before Josef.

She was forced, in a humiliating posture, to kneel before him.

"You're still good at running, aren't you?"

Josef sneered, looking down at Eleanor with a cruel expression.

"But where can you run to?"

He laughed, like a madman, and then fixed his vicious gaze back on her.

"All because of you, my hands are ruined, my legs are crippled, even my mouth is destroyed. How should I thank you?"

By the end, his tone became heavier, as if he wanted to tear Eleanor to pieces.

Eleanor trembled in fear at his appearance.

"Mr. Caporal, I don't understand…"

"Don’t know?"

Josef looked disbelieving and then sneered.

"Let me tell you."

He bent down and brought his sliced mouth close to Eleanor's eyes, laughing as he said:

"He said that I've hugged her, kissed her, and let her sit on my lap, so he had to punish me."

"I thought carefully. The only person I've hugged, kissed, and let sit on my lap without doing anything else with is you."

Upon hearing this, Eleanor's face turned pale again.

No wonder Josef said he wanted to thank her and strangely brought up Mr. Law earlier.

It turned out that Mr. Law's words had made Josef suspect Eleanor was the mastermind behind everything.

She had thought Josef was here because of the fake contract but she never imagined he was here for revenge!
