Chapter 102
Eleanor got it and nodded, “Thank you.”
Her politeness made Jason a bit uncomfortable.
Eleanor didn’t notice his uneasiness, and looked up at him, “Mr. Clowers, how did the bidding go?”
She hadn’t gone to the scene yesterday afternoon and didn’t know the final result.
Jason casually answered, “The Clowers Group won the bid.”
Eleanor was a bit surprised to hear this result.
Bernard didn’t give the development rights to the Ratliff Group?
Wasn’t Ms. Ratliff his crush?
She was a bit puzzled but didn’t ask further, just said indifferently to Jason, “Congratulations.”
Jason didn’t really like her polite yet distant attitude, wanted to say something but felt he didn’t have the right.
He suppressed the odd feeling in his heart and stepped forward to ask, “Are you hungry?”
Eleanor shook her head, then realized her clothes had been changed.
She looked at Jason puzzled and surprised.
“The maid helped you change it.” Feeling her misunderstanding, Jason quickly explained.
Hearing that the maid changed her clothes, Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief.
She glanced at Jason somewhat awkwardly, “Sorry.”
Jason waved his hand and gently said, “It’s okay.”
After he said this, Eleanor didn’t know how to carry on the conversation.
She felt she should get up and leave now, but her legs….
Just as she was thinking about how to ask Jason to take her home, he called out.
“Layla”
A middle–aged woman responded, carrying a tray of food.
The woman’s figure was a bit plump, and her face always had a kind and warm smile.
She put the tray on the table and said to Eleanor with a smile, “Miss, I didn’t know what you like to eat, so I prepared some breakfast for you according to the Mister’s taste. Have something to eat, and I’ll make you something delicious for lunch”
Her kindness made Eleanor feel less awkward, “Thank you”
Layla waved her hand, “You’re welcome.”
After she said that, she walked out and even closed the door behind her.
Eleanor felt that Layla might have misunderstood, which was why she helped them close the door.
Thinking about it, she felt even more embarrassed and hurriedly forced herself to sit up.
Leaning against the head of the bed, she asked Jason somewhat embarrassingly, “Can you take me home?”
Jason didn’t answer but frowned, “Besides heart disease, do you have any other diseases?”
Eleanor’s face changed when she saw his contemplative expresssion,
I’m not sick.”
“How come even sitting up is difficult for you?”
Eleanor was stunned, and no matter how hard she tried to hide it, she couldn’t escape Jason’s eyes.
I’m just anemic, and I get tired easily
“Just anemia?”
His doubting tone sounded a bit harsh to Eleanor.

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...
