A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 316

Hailey saw Eleanor still standing there after hanging up the phone and quickly honked the car horn.

Eleanor hurriedly pushed her suitcase towards Hailey.

Back at the villa, they lay on the same bed like before, chatting about the past, present, and future.

Listening to Hailey's endless chatter, Eleanor's body gradually relaxed, leaning on Hailey's shoulder and quickly fell asleep.

Seeing Eleanor asleep, Hailey tucked her in and slowly closed her eyes, entering dreamland.

The next day, Hailey intended to go with Eleanor to see Garett.

However, Hailey had things to do and had to stay behind.

Before leaving, Eleanor put her marriage certificate in her small backpack.

With her bag on her back and her phone in hand, she arrived at Garett's villa.

He was still sitting in the backyard, looking down at a book. From afar, he looked like a painting.

Yet, his back looked lonely and deserted, as if abandoned by the whole world.

Eleanor could feel his emotions, but she pretended not to know and leisurely walked towards him.

She said, "Garett…"

Hearing her voice, Garett didn't turn around cheerfully as before, but gripped the book in his hands even tighter.

Eleanor stopped in front of him, crouched down, and asked, "How are you today? Are you feeling unwell?"

Garett told Eleanor, "I'm fine, you don't need to come see me."

She continued, "Although recently I learned of his hardships and knew he did a lot for me, I did waver."

"But he killed his own Eleanor with his own hands. Now, I just want to look forward and never look back."

"As for Ethan, we have successfully ended our marriage. He has returned to the G country.”

"Garett, I did all this because from the beginning, I decided to stay by your side.”

"You've been with me for over twenty years, and I want to be with you for at least another twenty…"

Garett's eyes filled with tears, blurring his vision of her face.

He tried to raise his hand to touch her face, but the pain made him lower it again.

Clutching his legs tightly, he struggled for a few minutes before raising his tear-filled eyes to look at Eleanor.
