A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 237

The nightclub was dimly lit, and it took Hailey several changes of light to make out the other person's features.

Even with short hair and a red dress, looking nothing like her old self, that face was deeply etched in her heart.

The person Hailey could never forget in this lifetime was actually standing right there.

Stunned, Hailey dropped the cigarette from her fingers.

"Hailey!"

Eleanor called out tearfully.

Hailey still couldn't believe it as she walked towards Eleanor. "Eleanor, is it really you...?"

Eleanor, who had been holding back her tears, couldn't help but let them out. "Hailey..."

Hearing her voice, Hailey became certain that she hadn't mistaken this person for someone else.

Shaking all over, Hailey tried to reach out and touch Eleanor's face several times, but her hands trembled uncontrollably due to her overwhelming emotions.

Eleanor took Hailey's hand and pressed it to her own cheek, tearfully telling her, "Hailey, I'm back."

Feeling Eleanor's warmth, which was so warm and so real, Hailey burst into tears. "Eleanor..."

She wrapped her arms around Eleanor, hugging her tightly. "You're my baby Eleanor, aren't you? You haven't left me, and you're still alive, right...?"

Eleanor hugged her just as tightly and replied through her tears, "I am your Eleanor, and I didn't leave. I'm still alive."

After holding each other for a long time, Hailey finally let go. Her hands still trembling, she lightly touched Eleanor's face and body.

Seeing that there were no injuries, she looked at Eleanor in disbelief. "How...?"

She had seen Eleanor taken away, even Garett personally sent her to be cremated. So why, after three years, had Eleanor returned?

Eleanor frowned, noticing that Hailey heard her question but chose to ignore it and change the subject instead.

This made Eleanor uneasy, so she tightened her grip on Hailey's hand and pressed her again. "Hailey, where is Garett?"

Her voice trembling this time, she seemed to be afraid of hearing the answer, but she had to know.

Seeing that Eleanor wouldn't let it go, Hailey stopped, turned and, with red-rimmed eyes, looked at her. "He... He died for you."

Eleanor's body stiffened, her face turning pale. "Hailey, what are you talking about? What does that mean?"

She couldn't accept it, even though it was reported in the news and Hailey told her directly. She just couldn't accept it!

Garett, that gentle boy who cared for her wholeheartedly, how could he leave her in such a sad way? How could this be?!

She shook her head in disbelief. "No, he wouldn't do that..."
