A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1197

Chapter 1197 

After Sigrid left, Bernard put down the pen in his hand, gracefully stood up, grabbed his coat, called for the driver, and soon arrived at Quinlan’s house

Just as Bernard stepped into the living room, out of nowhere, a plate flew towards him. Quick as a whip, he dodged it

The plate whizzed past him, smashing into the wall behind him with a loud crash, instantly shattering into pieces…. 

Seeing the broken plate on the floor and the chaos in the living room, Bernard frowned slightly 

He rarely visited Quinlan’s home, but in his memory, it was always spick and span 

The place now looked nothing like the tidy home he remembered, it was more like a doghouse Quinlan had thrown together in his backyard

Seeing Bernard’s arrival, Latonia and Quinlan, who were in the middle of a fight with Cedric, quickly put on poker faces

Bernard, what brings you here?” 

Bernard gave Cedric a glance, his face filled with fury

Got some work stuff to discuss with Cedric.” 

Latonia initially thought Bernard had been summoned by Cedric as backup. Hearing Bernard’s explanation, she breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting Bernard to get tangled up in their family business

You guys go chat in the study. I’ll go make some coffee” 

Bernard nodded in agreement, then motioned for Cedric to follow him

Cedric then followed Bernard into the study… 

Shortly after, Latonia came knocking with coffee

Bernard, I wasn’t sure what you like, so I picked one based on Quinlan’s taste. Give it a try, if it’s not to your liking. I can get you a different one.” 

Latonia spoke with a courteous tone to the formidable Bernard, her voice as gentle as if she were talking to her own son

Though Bernard rarely ate out, faced with Latonia’s warmth, he took a sip of the coffee

To him, the coffee tasted awful, but he nodded politely to Latonia, The coffee’s good. Thanks.” 

Seeing Bernard’s response, Latonia’s mood instantly brightened, I’ll let you guys chat while I order some food.” 

Her own cooking might be hard to swallow, so ordering in from a restaurant would be a better idea

With Bernard around, she went off to order the food, Cedric wouldn’t start something right now, after all, he couldn’t make a scene in front of Bernard

With that thought in mind, Latonia was about to leave when Bernard called out to her, Can I talk to you?” 

She turned around, pointing at herself in surprise, Me?” 

Bernard looked indifferent, he lifted his head and gave a slight nod, Yeah.” 

Latonia looked at him, then at Cedric sitting nearby. It seemed Bernard was here to speak on Cedric’s behalf
