A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 238

Hailey stepped forward to embrace Eleanor, feeling her warmth, and her heart ached along with it.

"Eleanor, I can't believe it either, but..."

She didn't finish her sentence, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Three years ago, she followed Garett to the cemetery, fearing he might do something foolish.

When she arrived at the cemetery, she didn't find Garett, only bloodstains on a gravestone.

She felt very uneasy and searched everywhere for Garett but couldn’t find him.

The next day, the news reported that Jason, the president of the Clowers Group, had committed suicide at the cemetery for love.

Only then did she realize Garett had indeed done something foolish...

She held Eleanor tightly, with tearful eyes she said, “I’m sorry, Eleanor, it's my fault for not taking care of him...”

“No...”

Eleanor shook her head slightly, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart, the pain making it hard to breathe.

So many people had told her that Garett had passed away, but she didn't believe them.

She just wanted to hear the answer from Hailey, which is why she rushed back to the country.

But at this moment, Hailey also told her in person that Garett had died for love.

She had to believe it, but the person who should be sorry to Garett was always her...

Garett had a car accident because they had an argument, and he was hit by a car trying to save her.

She knew he couldn’t accept her being with other men, yet she raised money for the surgery by selling herself.

He blamed and scolded her for this, but she couldn’t understand him, and left the hospital in a huff, causing him to be taken away by the Clowers family.

He chose to jump out of the car for her, unwilling to return to the Clowers family, but lost his memory due to the second car accident.

When she went to find him, his elder brother tried to harm her, and she mistakenly thought it was Garett’s doing, becoming utterly disappointed in him.

Hearing these words, Hailey's body stiffened, her face turned pale, as if she was brought back to the pain of losing two loved ones three years ago.

With all her strength, she held Eleanor tight and cried, “Eleanor, Garett left me, his family behind, are you going to do the same? You finally came back, how can you just leave me like this? Am I not your family too?”

Eleanor’s heart ached, and she couldn’t help but tightly hug Hailey back.

Yes, her family included not only Garett but also Hailey.

But the guilt in her heart was gradually consuming her.

Those who shouldn’t be alive were alive, and those who shouldn’t have died were gone. It was so unfair.

Hailey, afraid that she might do something foolish too, whispered in her ear, “Eleanor, you still have me, you have me...”

Tears welled up uncontrollably in Eleanor’s eyes, and she broke down, clinging to Hailey and crying inconsolably.

Life is unpredictable, and the irreversible past left her powerless.

That young man had spent more than twenty years illustrating a beautiful tale, but was ultimately powerless to change his destined fate.
