A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 524

"Bernard...Bernard...."

Eleanor's agonizing screams pierced through the silent, desolate forest, resonating past the cabin and striking the heart.

The blood-soaked man lying on the ground seemed to hear nothing. Only utter silence surrounded him.

Like a dying man, he peered through the dense branches at the figure that was gradually moving further away from him.

He wanted to call out Eleanor's name once more, but no sound would come out. All he could do was watch her silently.

Not until Eleanor had completely disappeared from his sight did he slowly close his eyes...

Eleanor was being forcefully carried on Ethan's shoulder. She struggled with all her might, desperately resisting like a madwoman. "Ethan, let me go. Let me save him. Please, let me save him!"

Her frantic yell was filled with fear. She couldn't even begin to imagine what she would be without Bernard.

All she knew was that she had to save him. Even if she couldn't, she wanted to stay by his side. She wanted to share life and death with Bernard. She never wanted to be separated from him.

"I beg you, let me go to him. Even if it means death, I want to be with him."

She had never told him “I love you,” she needed to go back and tell him.

Bernard, there's a girl named Eleanor who's loved you for many years. Please don't leave her alone.

When Ethan heard that she wanted to die with Bernard, his tone became stern.

Even if he didn’t die, he would be crippled...

But he's Bernard. The untouchable, high and mighty Bernard. How could he die, how could he become disabled?

Eleanor couldn't accept it. She frantically hit Ethan's back, "I don't care what state he's in, I need to go back and get him!"

Ethan furrowed his brows, losing his patience, "So annoying!"

He quickly put Eleanor down, and as she turned and prepared to run back, he raised his hand, aiming at the back of her neck, and slapped her hard!

Eleanor was completely caught off guard. Her world suddenly turned black before she had a chance to react. Her body went limp, collapsing to the ground...
