A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 877

Blake got up, "Come to the study with me."

Did he mean he didn't want to discuss it in front of Eleanor and Cedric?

Cedric and Eleanor exchanged glances, then looked at Bernard.

Bernard didn't move, "Is there something they can't hear?"

Blake turned around and said coldly, "You can ecide if you want to tell them after you hear it."

Bernard's handsome brow furrowed slightly. After a few seconds of hesitation, he looked at Aidyn, "Is Liana here yet?"

Aidyn respectfully responded, "The hospital is quite a distance away, but she's on her way and should arrive soon."

Bernard shifted his focus, tenderly holding Eleanor's hand. "Are you in significant pain, my love?"

Eleanor's heart warmed at his caring gaze. "I'm feeling better now. Don't worry about me. There are thing more important than this."

Bernard affectionately stroked her hair, then addressed Aidyn with a cold tone. "Once Liana arrives, ensure she promptly tends to my wife."

Aidyn nodded in understanding, and Bernard rose from his seat, heading towards the study.

Mr. Laurence sat on the sofa, silently observing his surroundings. When Bernard entered with an expressionless face, he took a seat opposite Blake. "Let's begin," Bernard demanded.

Bernard glanced at him, "So, you made them break up?"

Mr. Laurence nodded, then shook his head, "I initially forced them to break up, but your father was very determined to marry her. He made a big fuss, but how could your grandmother possibly agree to the daughter of the Pine family marrying into our family? I had no choice but to threaten your father with the girl's life, forcing him to marry Donna."

Blake's guilt towards Donna started here. The Stanley family married Donna to his son for a business alliance, and he did it to make his son forget the illegitimate daughter of the Pine family.

"On their wedding day, I had your father take some concoction. Not long after, Donna became pregnant with your older brother. But your father never forgot about the girl from the Pine family. Donna might've found out, and it weighed on her. She always had conflicts with your father during her pregnancy.

"Your father found Donna to be controlling and somewhat neurotic, leading him to consider a divorce. However, Donna's love for him was profound, having admired him since their youth. It was already difficult for her to become his wife, so she resisted the idea of a divorce. As a result, your father felt trapped, often staying abroad for extended periods, sometimes up to six months...

"Perhaps I was too lenient at that time. I didn't harm the other woman; I simply ensured her departure. Now, fate has brought them together again in a foreign location. After experiencing the volatility of his relationship with Donna and reuniting with a lost love, your father's mental state has become chaotic, leading to a complete mess."
