A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 932

After dinner, Eleanor had the servants take Nina to bathe, while she herself sat on the single sofa at the study door, pretending to read while eavesdropping on Bernard and Caleb's phone conversation.

"If you wanna tie the knot, I can go and have a chat with Robin."

On the other end of the phone, Caleb instinctively resisted upon hearing this.

"Boss, I'm not into Katharine. You don't need to plead with Robin on my behalf."

He could totally picture the reaction Robin would have if the boss went to talk to him about it!

He didn't want the boss to swallow his pride and plea to Robin on his behalf. That would be worse than death.

Besides, Caleb was fully aware that, given Katharine's personality, if she found out he had deceived her, she definitely wouldn't be willing to marry him.

So why should the boss have to humble himself to his enemy for an impossible cause?

"Caleb, I can help you break free from Siren Organization, then you won't be bound by your status anymore, and you can be with whoever you want. I'll have someone protect you."

Upon hearing this, Caleb felt a warm feeling in his heart. He was deeply touched.

Although he also desired freedom, the boss was going to the black market in five months, and he had to accompany him.

If he can't protect the boss, he'd give his life to do so. After all, the boss had been helping and taking care of him since he was a child and had always appreciated him.

"No need, boss. I still have a lot of missions to complete..."

After saying this, Caleb took a deep breath and, gripping his phone, said:

"If Katharine is still looking for me, just tell her where I am."

If he was going to be with her, he had to take responsibility. He just hoped that when Katharine saw him again, she wouldn't want to kill him. Anything else, she could do as she pleased.

After failing to persuade Caleb multiple times, Bernard felt somewhat tired and stopped talking. After hanging up the phone, he saw Eleanor eavesdropping.

Bernard held her waist with an impassive expression. "This was specially arranged for you. Don't you like it?"

They were enclosed within an iron cage, adorned with flowing red gauze. Beneath the gauze, a circular bed was covered in a sea of red roses. On the floor, a technologically designed galaxy slowly shifted and moved.

Eleanor shifted her gaze from the mesmerizing scene to Bernard's noble and composed countenance.

She had known long ago that he was a bit offbeat in this respect, but she didn't expect that his eccentricity wasn't just a bit, but extreme...

Seeing her resistance, Bernard frowned slightly. "If you don't like this room, we can switch to another one."

There are other rooms?!

Eleanor clung to his neck. "Let's just stick with this one..."

That was all she could accept for now.
