A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 552

Ethan got back home in the dead of night. Eleanor was fighting off sleep, holding Nina while waiting for him.

Ethan had barely seen Eleanor in the past three months. Even when they did cross paths, he just pretended like she wasn't there and walked off.

This time, as he pushed open the villa door and saw Eleanor and Nina waiting for him in the living room, he chose to ignore them like he usually did.

Just as he was about to leave, Eleanor stopped him. "I'm pretty much recovered now and planning to leave tomorrow. I'm taking Nina with me."

She had no patience to argue with Ethan anymore and made her demand straightforwardly.

Ethan paused, turned back to look at her. "Why would you take her? She's not your kid."

Eleanor responded calmly, "Nina is my sister's child. I am her aunt, and have guardianship rights. Of course I can take Nina."

Ethan scoffed, "So you're saying I'm not fit to raise her?"

Eleanor coldly replied, "Whether you're fit or not, you know very well."

Upon seeing her back to her old self, Ethan knew that she had seen the news about Bernard attending the press conference.

He gave Eleanor a once over, before warning her, "You're so eager to see him, doesn't mean he wants to see you. Don't come crying back to me when that happens."

Eleanor didn't understand what he was implying and continued, "Nina is of school age now. Either let me take her back to A City , or send her back to her father. It's not good for her to be wandering around with you all the time."

Ethan frowned, walked over to Eleanor, bent over and looked at her, his hands resting on the arms of the chair.

And as for why he kidnapped Eleanor, it was probably because Eleanor looked too much like her mom, and that's why Ethan treated her that way.

Because she felt sorry for Ethan, Nina not only forgave him, but often took the initiative to cuddle up to him.

At first, when she got close to Ethan, he would scold her, get mad at her.

But one time after he came out of Eleanor's room, he suddenly hugged her tightly, burying his head in her tiny shoulder, saying, "I'm sorry, I've done something wrong recently, almost let your mom down..."

Nina touched Ethan's handsome face with her little hand, "Mom was really nice, she won't blame you..."

After that, Ethan never got mad at her anymore. Nina thought she must have melted his heart with her cuteness.
