A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 85

Cedric looked at the indifferent Bernard through the rearview mirror.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally plucked up the courage to ask, "When are you planning to marry Sophie?"

He always felt that once Bernard and Sophie got married, everything would settle down, and there would be no more need to live in fear.

Bernard seemed to smile, but the amusement didn't reach his eyes, "Do you want me to marry her too?"

Cedric shook his head subconsciously, "No, but..."

But there was no other choice, right?

Just when Cedric hesitated about what to say, Bernard casually said, "I will marry her."

His voice was hollow, as if devoid of any emotion, like a machine, just cold and indifferent.

Cedric sighed deeply in his heart. It seemed that Bernard had never truly felt happiness.

Jason sent Eleanor home.

Before getting out of the car, Jason handed her a tube of ointment, "This can help with the swelling."

Eleanor thanked him but still refused, "I can use ice."

After that, she turned and left. Jason looked at her petite figure and fell into sorrow again.

He could feel Eleanor's wariness towards him, even with a hint of hostility, which confused him.

Feeling a chill in his heart, he decided to have the chairman buy him more than ten cups of juice to comfort his wounded soul when he got back home.

Eleanor arrived home, lying on the couch exhausted, staring at the ceiling blankly.

Her physical exhaustion was severe, traveling from her body to her heart, forcing her close her eyes in utter tiredness.

Without even removing her makeup or changing her clothes, she lay on the sofa and drifted off to sleep.

In a daze, she seemed to see Bernard coming in.

He picked her up, held her in his arms, and kissed her passionately.

Under his intense kisses, she couldn't help but get caught up in them...
