A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 692

Eleanor was a little surprised to see Nina coming. She turned around and noticed a man standing behind the crowd with one hand in his pocket. He was dressed in a black suit like a statue. His facial features are three-dimensional, and his appearance is extremely perfect. When Bernard got out of the car, Eleanor instantly knew that it was he who had brought Nina to mourn for Emilia and Ethan.

She had originally planned to bring Nina after all the Zieglers had left. She was worried that they might snatch the kid away.

But seeing Bernard standing there, all self-assured, it seemed like he wasn't worried about the Zieglers taking the kid at all.

So, why not let Nina say her final goodbyes to her parents, in case she regrets it later?

Eleanor reached out and ruffled Nina's hair.

"Nina, your mom's right here. You can tell her anything you want to say."

Nina stared at the tombstone, at the pictures of her mom and the gentleman. After a while, she reached out and touched their photos.

"Mum, Dad, wait for Nina in heaven. I want to be your child again in my next life..."

Eleanor was completely floored when she heard Nina speak.

"Nina, how did you know he was your dad?"

Nina looked up at Eleanor.

"Casey told me. Even though the gentleman denied it, I already figured it out."

She was smart, way smarter than other kids her age. She quickly understood the complicated relationships.

Mr. Ziegler and Evelyn were thrilled to see such a bright child. They immediately bent down to pick her up...

The moment a stranger's hand touched Nina's shoulder, she was startled and quickly hid behind Eleanor.

"Mr. Ziegler, Evelyn, Nina's been through a lot. Please don't scare her."

Eleanor stood in front of Nina, calmly staring them down.

Cassius had never had a direct encounter with Bernard. He had only seen him on the news a few times, so this was their first meeting.

He stared at Bernard, sizing him up.

"You do look a bit like your father."

Bernard's air of nobility seemed to surpass even his father's.

Even though Cassius was based overseas, he knew more about his competitors than anyone else.

He knew that Bernard, despite his young age, had already expanded the influence of the Laurence Group globally, economically outpacing other families.

He also knew that Bernard’s method was much more ruthless than his father’s, it could be said to be extremely cruel.. He knew Bernard never left any room for his competitors to survive.

Such a majestic man in the business world would marry an orphan with no background. This was something Cassius had never understood.
