Chapter 1194
As soon as Eleanor processed things, she immediately dialed Hailey’s number.
Hailey picked up, “Eleanor, what’s up?”
Hearing Hailey’s voice, Eleanor felt a bit relieved, “Hailey, where are you right now?”
Walking out of the arport with sunglasses on, Hailey softly replied, I’m in M Country now.”
Eleanor asked, puzzled, “Why did you suddenly go to M Country?”
Hailey hesitated for a moment but decided to tell her anyway, “Garett just had his surgery, he needs someone to take care of him”
Mentioning Garett caused a slight change in Eleanor’s expression, but she quickly regained her composure, ‘Did his surgery go well?”
Hailey nodded. “The surgery went well, we’ll have to see how he recovers though. But there’s a high chance he’ll be able to walk again.”
Hearing that Garett might be able to stand up again, Eleanor sighed in relief. “That’s good to hear. When do you think you guys will be able to come back?”
Hailey responded, “He just had his surgery, he needs some time to recover. Probably a month. Once he’s mostly healed, we’ll come back for physical therapy.”
After she got a clear picture of the situation, Eleanor finally brought up Cedric, “Hailey, did you reject Cedric because his parents talked to you behind his back?”
Hailey knew what Eleanor was calling about and took a deep breath, “His mom was right. We’re just not right for each other.”
Eleanor was about to say something but was cut off by Hailey. “Eleanor, there’s no chance for me and Cedric anymore. Stop worrying about us.”
After that, Hailey looked into the distance and saw Colter Clowers waving at her. She quickly waved back and told Eleanor, “Colter’s here to pick me up. Gotta go.”
“Wai-…
Eleanor didn’t finish her sentence before Hailey hung up.
Eleanor held her phone, thought for a moment, and called Cedric to let him know Hailey was in M Country, telling him not to worry.
Upon hearing that Hailey had gone abroad, Cedric assumed it was the doing of his parents. He was so infuriated that he sped up his car and drove straight back home.
Once Hailey got into Colter’s car, she took off her sunglasses. Her swollen eyes were revealed, even her colored lenses couldn’t hide the redness in her
eyes.
She turned her head, looking out the window. The sky was blue, the clouds were white, it was beautiful but she wasn’t in the mood to appreciate it. Her
mind was filled with what she saw last night…
She thought, what was the difference between her and Hertha?
She slept with Cedric when she was drunk and got a promise from him.
He slept with Hertha when he was drunk, then perhaps he would give Hertha a promise as well.

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...
