A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 313

The two of them happily hopped into the car and drove to the church where Hailey often went.

As they were getting close to the church, they could hear the nuns singing. Their voices were so soothing and calming; it felt like a weight was lifted off their shoulders.

She carried some fruits and followed Hailey, step by step, devoutly entering the church.

Seeing the cross, tears slowly welled up in her eyes.

It seemed that she had so much pent-up bitterness in her heart, and with nowhere else to vent, she could only find a moment of peace here.

After they entered, a priest led her in confession.

After confessing, she made three wishes:

One, for Hailey to be safe.

Two, for Garett to be healthy.

Three, ...

At this point, images related to him flashed through her mind.

The priest noticed her hesitation and kindly said, "You can wish for anything."

Hearing this, Eleanor wished for Bernard's happiness.

She wished him happiness and hoped that he would soon find someone to accompany him for the rest of his life.

After finishing writing, she thanked the priest and walked out of the church.

Upon leaving the church, Eleanor's heart was completely at ease.

After knowing his helplessness and what he had done for her, she was indeed affected.

But when she saw him with other women, that influence gradually faded away.

She remembered that it was a place Garett had taken her to.

He had promised to take her there again, but before he could, he had an accident.

Eleanor never thought that he would bury her here to fulfill that promise after she "died".

Although in this way, Garett had kept all his promises to her.

Eleanor smiled, bought a bouquet of flowers, and followed Hailey into the cemetery.

Her grave was much larger than the others, surrounded by trees, flowers, and sunlight.

Her photo was on the tombstone, and it was very clean, as if someone had been coming to wipe it regularly.

She bent down, placed the flowers in her hand, and reached out to touch the tombstone. Having been buried here for three years under her name, her sister must have been very lonely.
