A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 851

Eleanor walked up to Cedric and asked, "Cedric, can you grab a screenshot from the video my mom left me? I want it as a keepsake."

"Sure thing," Cedric responded, "I'll get you anything you want, even the moon if you ask for it."

With a few quick strokes on the keyboard, he turned the video into a still image, copied it, and sent it to Eleanor.

Eleanor, grateful for his help, muttered a quick "thanks" and suggested, "How about we go to B City tomorrow? I'll treat you to some seafood."

Cedric just waved her off. "No need for that; I’m happy to help." He then handed her a chip and said, "The video is encrypted now. Keep this safe; I'm off to bed."

After receiving the chip and saying thanks again, Eleanor watched as Cedric grabbed his coat and left. He walked out of the study, passed through the living room, and was about to leave when he bumped into Hailey and Liana Terrill, who were carrying some medication.

He glanced at Liana and then at Hailey. Hailey's face stiffened a little at the sight of him, and it was clear she felt awkward.

Cedric strolled up to Hailey and gave her a once-over. "I knew we'd bump into each other eventually."

Hailey lowered her gaze, avoiding his. Seeing her ignore him, Cedric walked away. "What's so great about Hailey anyway?" He thought, "What's she to me once I stop caring?"

But he stopped mid-step and turned back to ask, "When are you meeting Yeager's parents?"

Upon hearing his question, Hailey halted too. She looked back at him. "His parents are still overseas, there is no set date yet."

"Oh..." Cedric responded, a bit taken aback. When he thought of what to say next, Hailey was already walking away with Liana.

Back in the study, Eleanor was working on her award acceptance speech when she heard that Hailey and Liana had arrived. She immediately put down her pen and stood up.

"Liana, I've adjusted the prescription and prepared the medication. Try it out."

Aidyn saw Eleanor coming and immediately walked over, handing her the invitation. "The wedding's on the 15th of next month, at the Oceanview Hotel. You and Mr. Laurence must come."

Eleanor took the invitation, nodding with a smile. "Of course, we'll be there."

She then turned to look at the woman standing next to Aidyn, Dr. Jill Naylor.

"Mrs. Laurence, hello, I'm Jill Naylor, a surgeon," Jill Naylor greeted, seeing Eleanor looking at her.

Jill Naylor's grace and charm impressed Eleanor. She thought Aidyn had made a good choice and responded with a smile, "Dr. Naylor, hello."

After the greetings, Aidyn took out a mended doll from his bag and handed it to Eleanor. "Mrs. Laurence, this is Nina's doll. Dr. Naylor helped sew it back together. Can you pass it on to her?"

Eleanor was surprised to see the mended doll. "Dr. Naylor, how did you manage that?"
