A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 223

"Your sister also told me your name..."

Hearing this, Eleanor took her eyes off the photo and looked at George.

"Your name is Elena, and your mother gave it to you."

Eleanor cracked a smile at the corner of her mouth.

So, she had a name too - Elena, it’s a pretty name...

She couldn't help but think back to when she was a kid at the orphanage, peeking over the wall and watching other kids being held by their parents.

Her smile gradually faded, tears falling uncontrollably, and the warmth within her heart was replaced by sadness and loneliness.

Seeing her like this, George gently handed her some tissues to wipe away her tears. "Don't cry, it'll hurt your eyes."

Eleanor blinked and gave a small nod, then asked again, "My mother..."

George gazed at her sadly, "I'm sorry, but Emilia said your mom passed away when she was little."

Eleanor kind of expected this outcome.

Otherwise, Emilia wouldn't have to take her abroad on the lam.

Something must have happened to her mother and sister.

She noticed that George hadn't mentioned her father, so she couldn't help but ask, "My father..."

George interrupted her before she finished, "I'm sorry, but that's all I know."

Eleanor didn't push George further, but was even more interested in the information he had.

As an internationally renowned cardiologist, George had been running around for her sister, Emilia - what was the relationship between them?

Worried that her anxiety would affect her cooperation in the recovery process, George reassured her, "I will try my best to shorten the time to within a year."

Eleanor still felt this was too long, "Dr. George... could you take me back to my country first?"

Although she couldn't move, it should be doable to transport her back to her country with someone's help.

Upon hearing this, George realized her urgent desire for recovery was due to wanting to return to her country.

He turned to Eleanor with a serious expression, "Ethan won't let you go. He's already done so much to keep Emilia's heart close to him; there's no way he'll let you go back to your country. You better give up on that idea as soon as possible."

Eleanor froze for a moment, almost forgetting Ethan's existence...

Now that her heart had fused with her sister's, Ethan would, of course, treat her as his 'private property' and wouldn't let her go easily.

To find Garett and Hailey, she would have to wait until her body recovered and then find a way to evade Ethan's control and return home...
