A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1094

Chapter 1094 

Bemard’s heart seemed to stop dead in its tracks. His blood felt like it had turned to ice in his wins. His hands, clutching her so tightly, had also turned cold He looked down in disbelief at the woman in his arms, his mouth gaping open as if to ask her something but no words came out 

He remembered distinctly when he held her close, she told him she only loved him Then why on earth did she scream out Garett’s name in her sleep

Was it because could it be that Eleanor herself didn’t realize she had feelings for Garett buried deep down inside her

If that was the case, what’s the ratio

Did she love him more or less than Garett

Bemard stiffened. Eleanor quickly looked up at him, her face pale. Honey,

Before she could finish her sentence, Bernard grabbed her wrist tightly Whose name did you just call out in your sleep?” 

His grip was strong, Eleanor’s wrist was fragile. His grip hurt her

Eleanor bore the pain and continued, Honey, I wasn’t actually asleep. I was thinking about something that happened with Garett today, and I said his name. I didn’t want to upset you, so I stopped talking I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, but I wasn’t calling out his name in my sleep” 

Bernard’s grip on her wrist loosened slowly His face was still pale, as if he was back to the days when hearing Garett’s name from her lips felt like a stab to his heart. This pain made him push Eleanor away

He threw off the blankets, got out of bed, and absentmindedly threw on a shirt. He went to his desk, pulled out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer. Just as he was about to light one, Eleanor’s hand stopped him

The lights in the room were off, only the moonlight streamed through the cracks in the curtains, casting a soft glow on them. In the dim light, they stared at each other, one looking down, the other up

Finally, Eleanor reached out and wrapped her arms around Bernard’s waist, pulling him close. Have I ever told you why I call out Garett’s name in my sleep?” 

Bernard didn’t answer, but he was desperate to know the reason. He didn’t want to hear her call out Garett’s name in the middle of the night again. He didn’t want to feel panicked every time he heard that name

They loved each other, any news about Garett would make him feel insecure, and his emotions would go haywire

Seeing the pain etched in his face, Eleanor couldn’t help but reach out and lightly touch his eyes

I didn’t tell you before because Garett was my first love. Whether it was a good or bad relationship, I shouldn’t bring it up. But seeing how scared you are now, I think I should tell you.” 

She dropped her hand and let go of Bernard. Then, looking at his handsome face, she spoke softly… 

I broke up with him because his twin brother did something that hurt me very much. This incident severely affected my mental health. I couldn’t escape the pain in my nightmares, so I kept calling his name, begging him to stop” 

Hearing this. Bernard’s tense body gradually relaxed, but he looked at Eleanor with disbelief

You.. you’re not lying to me, are you?” 

He had always thought that she called Garett’s name in her sleep because she still loved Garett, missed Garett. He had never imagined it was out of fear

Even after he found out the reason for their breakup, he thought she couldn’t let go, that’s why she was crying out for Garett in her dreams

If it was just out of fear, then he had misunderstood her all these years. And because of this misunderstanding, he had been so cold to her

With a mix of shock and deep regret, Bernard grabbed Eleanor’s hand and placed it on his heart, letting her feel his heartbeat as she answered him

Eleanor looked up at Bernard, his eyes filled with regret, and told him word by word 

I didn’t lie to you.” 

Getting her confirmation, the guilt in Bernard’s eyes deepened

Had he asked her about it after she woke up from that dream, would they have avoided all these wasted years

He couldn’t find the answer in the past, so all he could do was hold Eleanor close to him
