Chapter 1086
“Eleanor, Hailey told me yesterday that you’d drop by I had Yilin prepare a bunch of your favorite dishes. Stick around for lunch”
When he got the news, he almost chickened out, but then he thought better of it. If he didn’t see her, Eleanor might think he was still hung up on the past He wanted Eleanor to know that he was over it, so she could settle down with Bernard and live the rest of her life happily That’s what she really deserved
But it had been so long since he saw her that he was tossing and turning all night. By the time 5 am rolled around, he was sitting in the middle of the flower field, waiting
for her.
When the morning sun finally came out, he saw the one person who had been on his mind.
The moment he saw her, his heart started to race again.
He realized that he would never get over the past in this lifetime, but he had to fake it till he made it.
“Okay”
With tears glistening in her eyes, Eleanor smiled and nodded.
Garett guided her into the house, and as they passed through the entrance, his wheelchair came to a slight pause. He remembered that in this very spot, Eleanor had once knelt and pleaded with him repeatedly, begging him not to abandon her. If he could return to that moment, he would hold Eleanor tightly and firmly declare, “Alnight, I will never abandon you”
However, time had passed, and the years could not be reversed. Some things, even with regret, couldn’t be undone
As Eleanor entered. Yilia, now married, immediately came forward to greet her ‘Ms. Shultz, it’s truly been a long time,” she said, holding Eleanor’s hand and appraising her
from head to toe.
“I never expected you to remain as beautiful as ever.”
“So are you”
Seeing the happy girl in front of her, Eleanor smiled faintly, but her eyes fell on Yilia’s belly.
There was a slight bump on Vilia’s belly Clearly, she was pregnant
“This is mine and Colter Clowers‘ baby”
Yilia pointed to her belly, then wrapped her arm around Colter, resting her head on his arm.
“Yilia, congratulations”
Who would have thought the little girl from the past was now married to Colter. That was really nice
In the face of Eleanor’s well–wishes, Yilia’s smile grew even brighter, her complexion rosy, exuding an air of happiness. It was evident that Colter treated her exceptionally well, and this had kept her optimistic, leading a joyous life.
Yilia took Colter’s hand and greeted Eleanor before engaging in a brief conversation. After a while, she stood up and went to the kitchen. Hailey followed Yilia to the kitchen, leaving Eleanor and Garett some space.
With their departure, the living room suddenly became tranquil, and Eleanor looked at Garett ‘Garett, your home has such a wonderful atmosphere”
Garett, who had been sitting quietly beside her, came back to himself and nodded in agreement. “With Yilia and Colter around, life is never dull”
After saying this, Garett glanced at Colter, who had been staring at Eleanor, signaling him not to give her the stink eye.
Feeling Garett’s gaze, Colter’s anger subsided a bit, but Eleanor still noticed it.
In fact, she had sensed Colter’s hostility when Yilia pulled him over to say hi.

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...
