Chapter 1100
Sigrid slightly bowed her head without a word, just gazing at the coffee tool in the distance, “Jason, do you like coffee?”
Following her gaze, Garett glanced at it “Occasionally
Sigrid gave a small nod and fell silent
Garett didn’t quite get it, but he didn’t pry, just quietly watched Eleanor enjoying her dessert.
Since her visit yesterday. Garett slept an extra hour and had a sweet dream. In it, he and Eleanor fulfilled their youthful promises, got hitched, had kids, and loved each other till the end of time.
Waking up, Garett looked at the moonlight outside the window, picturing dream him as Bernard, finally stepping out of the dreamland.
Seeing Sigrid not bringing up the treatment plan, Eleanor glanced at her After Sigrid gave her a ‘no rush look, she asked Garett, Jason, can you show me around your crib?”
Their exchanged glances didn’t escape Garett’s notice, but he didn’t mind, nodding, “Follow me.”
As Sigrid stood up, she lightly held Eleanor’s shoulder, “Eleanor, you didn’t eat much breakfast, have some dessert first.”
Eleanor caught on immediately – Sigrid wanted a one–on–one with Garelt. So, she nodded, “Garell, you show her around, I’ll grab a bite first.”
Still pondering the appellation, Garett’s smile was a bit bitter, “Whatever you fancy, just tell Yilia, don’t hold back.”
Eleanor obediently responded and lowered her head to continue eating, not daring to look at Garett. Compared to yesterday, she was more aloof today.
Garett, noticing all this, guessed that she must’ve had a spat with Bernard after leaving his place, and they made up later His expression was a mix of joy and sorrow He led Sigrid through the corridor to the backyard. Despite the summer, there were plenty of flowers. The warm wind carried à noseful of floral fragrance.
Sigrid, taking in the scent, felt relaxed, “Jason, your place is like a beautiful botanical garden”
The garden was filled with all sorts of flowers, each carefully tended to, full of life even in summer.
After leaving Eleanor’s sight, Garett’s refined face turned cold. “Ms. Laurence, speak your mind,” he said sharply.
Observing his sudden change in demeanor, Sigrid raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t expect your this side.”
Sitting in his wheelchair, Garett propped his elbows on the armrests and looked at Sigrid under the umbrella. I’ve always been the same,” he replied. His demeanor was consistently reserved, though slightly softer when dealing with Eleanor and Hailey However, with women he wasn’t close to, he remained cold and distant

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...
