A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1027

Chapter 1027 

It’s already noon. 

Chase had made several phone calls to her, but eventually decided to come directly to her home. Eleanor blushed and felt her heart pounding. After composing herself, she walked over and sat across from Chase. 

Noticing that she seemed a bit unsteady on her feet, Chase asked, “Ms. Shultz, are you feeling unwell?” 

Eleanor tried to respond, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a severe cough replaced her words due to her dry throat. 

Seeing her in such a bad condition, Chase refrained from blaming her and simply said, “My time is valuable, please be on time next time.” 

Once Eleanor had recovered from the coughing fit, she blushed and apologized, “I’m sorry, I will definitely be on time next time…” 

“It’s okay if you’re not on time, but if you’re sick, please inform me promptly,” Chase replied. 

Finally, Chase glanced at her once more and inquired, “Is your illness alright? It won’t affect our appearance in court, will it?” 

Eleanor blushed again and shook her head, “No, it’s fine. I’ll be okay by tomorrow…” 

Standing upstairs, Bernard was looking at his watch while staring at the direction of the living. room. Hearing this, he cracked a slight smile. 

“Where’s your husband?” 

Eleanor looked up and saw Bernard’s smile and glared at him. 

“He’s throwing a tantrum.” 

“Huh?” 

Chase was tidying up his files while looking at her. 

Eleanor waved her hand awkwardly. 

“I’m just messing around.” 

Chase was no fool, he could tell something was up between these two. 

Looking at Eleanor’s clothes, long sleeves and trousers in summer, with a scarf, if he couldn’t tell, he’d be an idiot. 

He cleared his throat, “Call him down, I need to go back and work on the case after we talk.” 

Just as Eleanor was about to get up to call him, she saw a man dressed neatly, sauntering down.

Looking at his neck, Eleanor thought, next time she’d leave a few bites there too. 

The clueless man sat down next to her, took her hand, and placed it in his palm. 

He stretched out his long legs and lounged on the couch, “Start.” 

The words were for Chase. His naturally cool voice and noble temperament made people feel pressured. 

Even Chase, a regular nightclub–goer, felt somewhat tense in front of Bernard. However, the topics being discussed were Chase’s specialty, so he managed to keep his composure and appear more confident.
