A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 843

Once Cedric sat down and took a glance at the code, he began rapidly clacking away at the keyboard.

He was even more focused than Bernard when he was working.

Indeed, people were always at their most serious when they're doing what they're good at.

Eleanor, having stayed up all night, was a bit tired. Bernard suggested she take a rest, and he would wake her up once the hacking was done.

She asked the nanny to prepare breakfast for the two men and went to her room to catch a few winks, cuddling Nina.

Even though Cedric was a computer whiz, he still spent quite some time on this chip. It took him about two hours before he finally stopped.

"Emilia is really something! This chip is so complex. I solved one part, and there's another one waiting. Who knows what secrets it holds?"

Bernard, arms crossed, standing behind Cedric and staring at the lines of code popping up on the screen, asked coldly, "Done yet?"

"Of course, there's no code I can't crack."

In the realm of computers, Cedric could finally find some presence among his elder brothers.

He leaned back in his chair, legs propped up, waiting for the code to compile with a smug look on his face.

"Once it's done, leave."

Did this mean he didn't want him to see what was inside?

"What's left inside is a video. I'll have to piece it together step by step; there's no way I can avoid seeing it."

Bernard frowned at this.

If the information here involved Eleanor's background, he wouldn't exactly want outsiders to know, but...

"Whatever you see, pretend you don’t."

Cedric looked up at the man standing in the morning sunlight.

"You're being so serious. Is there some big secret inside?"

"You talk too much."

Seeing the 'shut up' look in Bernard's eyes, Cedric immediately shut up.

"Did you crack it?"

Bernard gave a gentle nod.

Eleanor lazily stretched, preparing to get up from under the covers, but unexpectedly fell into a warm embrace.

"I'll carry you."

With him by her side, Eleanor had become lazy. She wrapped her arms around his neck and let him carry her.

When Bernard walked into the study with Eleanor in his arms, Cedric raised his hands to cover his eyes.

This was really none of his business!

Bernard put Eleanor on the sofa chair, picked up a butterfly-shaped hair tie from the side, and tied up Eleanor's waist-length curly hair.

Cedric, who had witnessed the whole process: ...

Everyone else was lovey-dovey, but he was heartbroken and still had to help out. Man, his luck really sucked!
