A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1040

Chapter 1040 

Nina peered at the frail old woman outside the window, hesitating for a moment before nodding, “As long as you don’t force me to go with you like you did before, I’ll let you 

see.” 

Upon hearing this, Evelyn’s eyes immediately filled with tears, “Girl, don’t worry, I won’t be so impulsive again in the future. 

After acknowledging with a hum, Nina turned around to grab the snacks she had secretly stashed in the back seat storage compartment Eleanor noticed and lightly patted 

her bottom 

“Nina,” she said, her tone a tad reprimanding, yet her voice gentle, Tve told you many times, these snacks are unhealthy. They’ll ruin your teeth. Why don’t you listen?” 

Hearing this, Evelyn was reminded of Ethan when he was young She seemed to have never spoken to him in such a tender tone. 

Thinking of this, Evelyn’s gaze landed on Eleanor again, “If she keeps disobeying, why don’t you just take away her snacks and throw them away?” 

After stopping Nina, Eleanor turned to look at the people outside the window, “When I was in the orphanage, I had a weak heart and was too frail, slow at eating and walking But the carer who looked after me never lost her temper at me, she was always patient. Perhaps that’s why I never lose my temper with children” 

Evelyn gradually felt relieved, “With your temperament, Eleanor, Nina will definitely grow up to be a good girl” 

Eleanor smiled without saying a word. Evelyn continued, “Ms. Shultz, could I entrust her with the affairs of the Hooper and Ziegler families?” 

Eleanor disagreed with burdening such a young child with a family mission, “Let’s talk about it when she grows up.” 

Evelyn clarified. “That’s what I meant, when she grows up.” 

Eleanor responded, “Well, you can ask Nina herself then.” 

She wouldn’t make any life choices for the child, everything would be left to her. 

Bernard in the front seat was getting impatient and shot her a glance 

Eleanor stopped talking to Evelyn ‘it’s getting late, I’m taking the kid home now” 

Evelyn responded with an ‘okay, then seemed to remember something and said somewhat awkwardly, “About your mother. I’m… I’m really sorry”
