A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 423

The car quickly reached the hospital, and he rushed into the emergency department with her in his arms.

The hospital director hurried down after receiving the call, and pushed the unconscious patient into the resuscitation room.

Bernard sat on the cold floor again, staring at the tightly closed door, as if he had lost his soul.

It wasn't until the director came out that he slowly raised his eyes to look at the man in the white coat.

"Mr. Laurence, don't worry. Ms. Shultz just fainted due to malnutrition and overwork. It's not a big deal."

Hearing this, Bernard's numb heart finally felt a glimmer of sensation.

He looked at the director, "What about other aspects?"

The director reassured, "There's no problem with other aspects, don't worry."

His fingers trembled slightly. Although he knew the answer, he still couldn't help but ask, "Is she pregnant?"

The director was taken aback, then quickly shook his head, "No, Ms. Shultz isn't pregnant."

Bernard's face turned pale, his voice trembling as he asked, "Why?"

The director truthfully answered, "Firstly, she has been taking a lot of contraceptives. Secondly, her body has suffered severe trauma. Thirdly, the medication she is taking right now has side effects."

Contraceptives...

The word hit Bernard like a thunderbolt, draining all the color from his face.

He wanted a child to keep her here, but he never thought that his past mistakes would directly affect his wishes.

He forced a smile, even tears appeared in his eyes.

For the first time, the director saw such a disheveled look on Bernard's face, he didn't know how to comfort him.

"Mr. Laurence, you..."

The tears in Bernard's eyes gradually disappeared, he gave the director a cold glance.

He tried several times but couldn't bring himself to say 'let you go'.

When she agreed to be with him, he was full of hope.

Their short time together was the happiest moment of his life.

He was hopeful and blissfully immersed in her tenderness like a child.

He thought they could continue like this forever, but she suddenly slapped him...

That slap wasn't a superficial pain on the face, but a heavy blow to his heart.

He had her twice and lost her twice, how could he say the words "let you go"...

But if he insisted on not letting her go, the woman he loved deeply might be driven to her death by him.

Bernard bent over in pain, his elbow propped on his knee, his hands buried in his thick hair, what should he do...
