A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 605

The two were discussing, and Aidyn had already ordered the locked cases to be laid out on the glass table. Then he reported to the man on the sofa.

"Mr. Laurence, I have the gifts ready and Blake's been notified. Whatever his reaction, I brought the crew here anyway."

Bernard gave a slight nod. When Eleanor and Hailey finished their chat and returned to the living room, he got up from the couch, and walked over to Hailey.

"Ms. Vulpe, I'm here today to discuss marriage with you. You're her sister, so it's only right we talk about this."

Bernard knew that she and Eleanor weren't related by blood but sisters in name, but his respect for her showed he was a man worth trusting.

Hailey's fondness for Bernard increased a bit more. She quickly waved her hands, "Let's discuss this together...."

After she finished, she signaled everyone to sit down on the living room couch and asked the maid to prepare some afternoon tea.

When everyone sat down, Aidyn, at Bernard's cue, ordered his men to open the rows of locked cases on the table and the big ones placed on the carpet. Then he respectfully said, "Ms. Shultz, Ms. Vulpe, these are the gifts prepared by Mr. Laurence."

Seeing this, Hailey and Eleanor exchanged a glance. They had initially thought that these locked cases were filled with cash. To their surprise, they were filled with documents, bank cards and the likes.

Aidyn used his palm as a guide. Pointing to the locked cases on the table, he said to Eleanor, "Ms. Shultz, these are all Mr. Laurence's personal assets, which have been transferred to your name. Now, these documents are all yours."

To ease their pressure, Aidyn immediately said, "Ms. Vulpe, Ms. Shultz, don't worry. These are just previous assets, and the Laurence Group will soon get them back into the account. As for your wedding gift, don't worry. Ms. Shultz marrying our Mr. Laurence is the most precious gift itself."

Ms. Shultz marrying Mr. Laurence is the most precious gift itself. These words deeply moved Hailey, but she still insisted on giving out gifts, "As for the return gift, I will handle it properly."

Accepting others' gifts and giving return gifts is only natural. But the Laurence family still had elders, would they really not oppose Bernard using the entire family's assets as a bride price?

That was also Eleanor's thoughts. She immediately said to Bernard, "Accepting your assets is already more than enough. I don't need the Laurence family's."

Hailey, who agreed with this, also nodded, "The Laurence family’s assets are indeed too much, I'd better not...."
