A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 436

After Kendrick Laurence received the call, he took off his gloves and fished out his phone from the pocket of his work clothes.

Seeing it was Bernard, Kendrick Laurence quickly stepped outside to take the call, "Brother, finally you decided to check-in. Cedric's running the company into the ground, we're all going bonkers here, you..."

Before Kendrick Laurence could finish his sentence, Bernard curtly cut him off, "You need to come to W City ASAP and take over the space agency project."

For a moment, Kendrick Laurence thought he heard something wrong. After a slight pause, he asked, "What's the trouble?"

He used to be the project manager for the space agency. If he were handing it back to him, something major must've gone wrong with the company.

Could it be that Cedric sold the company?

Without waiting for Bernard's explanation, all he heard was an order, "Get here now."

After giving the order, Bernard hung up the phone and looked up at Caleb, "Get the plane ready. We're leaving immediately."

He was itching to get going and eager to see Eleanor as soon as possible.

Caleb nodded and went to prepare, meanwhile, he instructed the servants to pack Bernard's stuff.

After turning on his phones, messages kept pouring in. Bernard frowned, casually picked up a phone, and started checking.

When he saw a message from Liana four months ago, his expression shifted slightly. Ms. Shultz was left alone?

Wasn't Garett supposed to be with her? He knew Garett was there, that's why he left. Could it be that Garett didn't take care of her properly?

Liana lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, then told Dr. Webb honestly, "You're three years younger than me, more like a younger brother to me. Besides, I can't have children. I'm not suitable for you."

Upon hearing this, there was no disgust in Dr. Webb's eyes. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Liana, none of that matters. As long as you don't dislike me..."

Liana looked at the man, who was a head taller than her and exuded a fresh aura. She was touched.

He was the first man who knew about her inability to bear children and still pursued her. His warm response brought tears to her eyes.

But it was just a fleeting moment. Liana quickly built up her defenses, "Dr. Webb, at my age, if I were to start dating, I'd be hoping for marriage. But you come from a well-to-do family. You should think about your family first."

Her rejection was clear in her words, but Dr. Webb was persistent. He shook his head, "It's precisely because I come from a well-to-do family, they would respect my choices even more. So, Dr. Terrill, I hope you can give me a chance to pursue you."
