A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 184

As she laughed at herself, she suddenly found it difficult to breathe and coughed uncontrollably. The blood she coughed out quickly filled her oxygen mask.

"Eleanor!"

Jason turned pale and frantically pressed the call bell for the doctor. Then he knelt on one knee, took out a tissue, tore off her oxygen mask, and caught the blood she coughed out.

Blood flowed onto the tissue, soaking his fingers. Jason trembled all over.

With his other hand, he tried to wipe the blood from her mouth, but he couldn't clean it all up...

Blood flowed down her cheeks, wetting her clothes and pillow.

The bloody scene made his heart ache and he couldn't help shaking...

Upon hearing the bell, the nurse immediately called the attending doctor and the dean over.

Seeing how badly Eleanor was coughing, Liana ordered the doctors to take her to the emergency room.

People in the ward hurried in and out, leaving only Jason still kneeling on the ground.

It was as if the world had become quiet, with only him left, staring blankly at his blood-covered hands...

His tall body trembled uncontrollably, ice-cold and powerless, as if a black hole was swallowing him bit by bit, making him deeply feel that the person he had been protecting was really going to leave.

Not to leave him, but to leave this world and never come back...

When Hailey returned, she saw Jason like this and her resentment towards him faded.

She saw how much he loved Eleanor. If it weren't for their missed five years, they could have lived a peaceful life together.

But fate is unpredictable, causing them to miss each other and rob Eleanor of her life.

"Dr. Terrill, how is Eleanor doing now?"

Hailey leaned against the wall, barely supporting herself, and asked the question with trembling voice.

Liana gazed up at Hailey and took a deep breath. After a few moments of silence, she reluctantly advised Hailey, "Ms. Vulpe, you should go and say your goodbyes to her while you still can..."

Upon hearing this, Jason, who had just arrived at the emergency room, swayed and nearly lost his balance. His face turned an eerie shade of pale, as if all the blood had been drained from it, rendering it almost transparent.

Staggering forward, he approached Hailey, whose legs were trembling and who struggled to catch her breath while being supported by Liana's arms. Jason tightly clenched his fists, trembling as he uttered, "I'll go see her first..."

Liana nodded understandingly. After helping Hailey settle on a nearby bench, she retrieved a small dose of a calming agent and pressed it against Hailey's skin.

Though the dose wasn't significant, it was enough to stabilize Hailey's emotions and bring about a sense of calmness. She was now prepared to accompany Ms. Shultz on her final journey.
