A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1004

Chapter 1004 

*Why does everyone keep bothering me about Cedric? It’s so annoying ” 

“So you mean if I take care of you, you can let Cedric off the hook?” 

Robin, who looked imitated, had the fire in his eyes slowly fade away after hearing that. 

“You’re agreeing to take care of me?” 

Before Eleanor could respond, Sigrid tugged at her sleeve. 

“It’s not worth it, sacrificing for my brother.” 

“It’s okay.” 

Eleanor gently patted her hand, soothing her. 

“Your mother belongs to the Pine family, and my mother grew up in the Pine family too. We have some connection and history. It’s reasonable for me to call you cousin, and you feel the same. So I’m going to boldly take on this cousin role. It has no problem for me to look after my cousin, but…” 

Eleanor paused, her eyes gently lifted, revealing a tender smile. 

“I’m your cousin and Cedric is my brother, so indirectly you guys are somewhat related. Mr. Spencer, could you perhaps cut Cedric some slack for this relation’s sake?” 

Robin took a glance at Eleanor, standing far away, with a soft smile on her face and gentle eyes. 

“By your logic, simplifying the relationship, Cedric could be considered my brother too?” 

That was indeed the case 

That’s what Eleanor thought, but her face was filled with an innocent smile as she nodded at him. 

“As my cousin, can you let this slide, considering the relationship? Please?” 

Her voice was as soothing as a flowing stream. 

The furious Robin, upon hearing her gentle voice, had his anger gradually settling down. 

He lifted his eyes, staring at Eleanor, and found himself thinking that Bernard’s wife was quite a sight… 

Upon realizing this, Robin was startled and decided to see a neurologist later. Something must be wrong with his brain. 

“So you’re just trying to avoid looking after me. Don’t say one thing and do another.” 

“You’re the one who said you wanted me to come and take care of you, to get closer to me. Now that I’m doing it, you’re accusing me of climbing the social ladder.” 

Robin took a while to come up with a counterargument, and after a moment, he managed to spit out: 

“I meant, don’t use Cedric to get closer to me.” 

“But that’s the truth…” 

“Well, I can’t let him off just because of that!” 

Eleanor looked at him, silently nodded a few seconds later. 

“Alright then, I’ll take care of you. But I wonder for how long?” 

Robin glanced at Eleanor, “Until I’m discharged from the hospital.” 

Nathan piped up, “Mr. Spencer, we’re being discharged this afternoon…” 

Robin went silent. 

Before he could even speak, Eleanor quickly interjected, “That’s settled then, I’ll take care of you until you’re discharged.” 

Robin wanted to back out, but seeing Eleanor successfully wrapping up the issue, she covered her mouth, giggling with Sigrid. 

He was originally quite irritated, but their laughter eased his mood a bit, “Alright then, until I’m discharged.”
