"Do I need your money, yours and Garett's? Why insult me with money?!"
"I've let go, why would you and him provoke me? Is it that you want to drive me to death?"
After shouting, Bernard pressed against her forehead, asking, "Eleanor, would you only be happy if I'm dead...?"
Upon hearing this, Eleanor lifted her eyes to look at him, "What do you want me to do? You spent so much money on me, it's like a stone pressing on my heart. Don't you know that the pressure is choking me? I have no choice but to repay you..."
Bernard gently shook his head, "I don't want your money, I want you. Eleanor, I want you, please come back to me..."
His voice was full of pleading, staring at her, hoping she would obediently reply with a 'okay' like before.
But she didn't react, just calmly looking at him, "Bernard, forget about me."
Her voice was icy cold, seemingly determined, never to look back.
Bernard opened his mouth, wanting to say something, yet unable to make a sound.
His eyes red, he asked her in a low voice, "Eleanor, why are you so cruel to me? Do you really not have a heart?"
Eleanor's face turned pale instantly, and after a few seconds, she laughed.
"I don't have a heart. My heart has long been dug out, I don't even know where it was thrown..."
But he knew that from the moment he ended the agreement, she would never look back.
He slowly let go of her, cupped her face with his hands, lowering his head reluctantly, gently kissing the corner of her lips, "When is the wedding?"
Bernard smiled and gently nodded, "Okay, next Tuesday, I'll see you off to your wedding."
Eleanor looked at him in shock, "Bernard, don't be like this, I'm not worth it."
Bernard raised his hand, stroking her face, gently comforting her, "Eleanor, darling, let me do one last thing for you..."
