Chapter 100
“What?”
It took Cedric Laurence a while to realize that Bernard was asking if Jason Clowers would marry Eleanor
Shultz.
“No way! With Ms. Shultz’s background, the Clowers family would never agree to let Jason marry her!”
“Really?”
Bernard asked skeptically, his eyes full of disbelief.
They had grown up together and were once lovers.
Due to his amnesia, they had lost contact for five years, but now that they had reunited, it was natural for them to get back together, right?
Before knowing their past, he was sure that Jason wouldn’t go against the Clowers family for Eleanor.
But now, he felt that the Jason who had regained his memories would do anything for her since they were
once so in love.
“What… happened to you?”
Noticing his downcast mood, Cedric was worried.
Bernard still had some feelings for Ms. Shultz, right? Otherwise, why would he be so concerned about her affairs?
“I’m fine.”
Bernard looked away from the departing Rolls Royce, turned back to Cedric, and asked, “What’s up?”
Seeing his cold and distant demeanor again, Cedric held back his words.
“Al No. 7 is taking shape and will be launched at a press conference next month. Do you want to send
someone to test it again?”
“No need.”
Cedric had been researching computer science for many years and had achieved numerous remarkable results in the field of artificial intelligence. Bernard had full confidence in him.
“Send me the data after it goes public.”
Bernard was in control of the entire Lawrence Group. He never asked about the process, only cared about
the results.
Cedric nodded, “No problem.”
After finishing the business, Cedric brought up Ms. Ratliff.
“Did you see Ms. Ratliff arguing with the security guard downstairs just now?”
Bernard casually nodded, completely uninterested, but Cedric couldn’t help but complain.
“Not only did she argue with the security guard, she also claimed to be your fiancée. You two haven’t even gotten engaged yet, how could-”
“In three days, I will propose to her.”
Cedric’s complaint was cut off by Bernard’s words.
“What?”
Bernard glanced at him indifferently, “Go back to the old house and tell the butler to prepare the gifts.”
It took Cedric quite some time to regain his voice. “You’re really going to marry Sophie Ratliff?”
Ms. Ratliff’s persona was beneath Bernard’s taste. However, she was the only person he could marry in his lifetime. Bernard didn’t respond. In his indifferent eyes, there was a faint glimmer of sadness.
He looked as if he had fallen into an abyss, so lonely and cold.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
