Chapter 1092
Eleanor reached out, touching his face, only to have her wrist seized by Bernard
That right hand, once wiped Garett’s forehead and face. It made him feel unsettled.
He knew he was making a mountain out of a molehill, but he just couldn’t shake off the bad mood
This bad feeling, it was like an animal trapped in a cage gnawing at him.
He reminded himself, don’t lose temper, don’t give her the silent treatment. So he tried to suppress this strange irritation,
“I’m fine, don’t worry.”
“But your face…”
His lips were pale, looked like he just went through hell, looked really worn out
“Tell me, are you feeling unwell somewhere?”
Eleanor felt so sorry for him, wanted to touch his face again.
But he calmly held her wrist, leading her into the bathroom.
He turned on the faucet, placing her right hand under the water.
“Your palm is all sweaty Clean it up before hugging me.”
Eleanor looked up at him.
He never cared about her sweaty palms before, why now….
She felt somewhat indescribable. She felt that Bernard at this moment was a bit distant.
Bernard calmly again and again, helped her clean her hand.
“In the future, when you go to see Garett, I won’t accompany you”
“Why?”
Hasn’t he always wanted to be by her side?
Bernard didn’t respond, his indifferent eyes were deeply hiding his emotions.
He dried her hand, threw away the paper towel, and then washed his hand with soap again
Looking at the silent man in front of the sink, Eleanor frowned deeply.
“Babe, I thought you were joking. I didn’t realize you were senous.”
Every time facing this cold Bernard, she felt scared, but she still mustered the courage to hug him.
“I promise you, I’ll leave two hours after I see Garett tomorrow Stop being mad at me, okay?”
When she leaned over, she was like a warm flame, gradually warming his body
Bernard turned around, lifted Eleanor onto the sink, then looked up at her.
“You stay as long as you want, don’t worry about me”
She could tell he was angry, so she wrapped her arms around his neck hurriedly and kissed his pale lips.
“Babe, what should I do to make you stop being mad?”
Her soft lips touched his, making his Adam’s apple involuntarily roll a bit.
“I’m not mad”
He was clearly moved, but he still pretended to be calm.
Seeing him like this, Eleanor kissed his cheek lightly again.
“If I’m late for an hour, I’ll make it up to you for an hour, okay?”
Bernard seemed surprised that she would propose such a condition, his indifferent eyes were a bit taken aback.

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...
