Chapter 123
At the sound of this, the hand resting on her neck paused for a moment.
The man grabbed her neck with one hand and lifted her off the ground.
A powerful force choked her airway, causing a suffocating sensation and making her heart feel heavy and painful.
She had a weak heart and needed to maintain enough oxygen. If she was deprived her of enough oxygen, she would die!
Moreover, her back was injured, and it was already painful enough for her to breathe. Now her airway was being choked…..
She tried desperately to open her mouth, trying to breathe in air.
But that big hand didn’t give her any chance, and the strength on her neck was getting stronger gradually….
Trembling, she tried to pull the corner of Bernard’s clothes, but she had no strength.
All she could do was look at Bernard with tears in her eyes, hoping that he would have mercy and let her go.
Seeing her face become abnormally pale, as if she were on the verge of death, Bernard quickly let go of her neck and pushed her to the ground.
Given the chance to breathe, Eleanor collapsed on the ground, clutching her heart, and barely managed to speak.
“My pills…”
She needed to take her medicine as soon as possible or get oxygen immediately, or else she would die!
She used to take a lot of medicines to control her condition before seeing Bernard..
She only had one episode in front of him these years, but he mistakenly thought she was pretending to be sick for the sake of money.
So since then, she had been hiding her heart condition very well from Bernard. But at this moment…
She stretched out her hand to Bernard, shaking her voice for help: “… have heart disease… please… help me…
She was not afraid to die, but the choking sensation made her desperate, forcing her to instinctively seek help to survive.
Bernard’s indifferent eyes trembled slightly.
“Where’s the medicine?”
The medicine….
Eleanor suddenly remembered that she had taken a lot of medicines before going out, without bringing her bag with her..
At this thought, she suddenly let go of her struggling hand. Perhaps her life would come to an end soon, which was why the medicine was not with her so conveniently
She gave up on seeking help, turned over, and looked at the dim light above her with her hand on her heart. The room was dark and gloomy, without a trace of light coming in, just like hell….
In a daze, she saw a delicate face appear in front of her, with light reflecting off of it.
Then the man picked her up.
Eleanor nestled in his arms, forcing her eyes to stay open and look at his flawless face.
She couldn’t see his expression clearly, but she could feel his tight embrace as if he was afraid of losing her.
For the first time, Bernard held her in his arms in public right there in the hotel.
Eleanor became a bit addicted to his arms and couldn’t help but lean her head on his firm chest.
She just wanted to be capricious for once…..
With a cold face, Bernard quickly put her in the car.
Sophie, who was walking towards the hotel, saw Bernard holding a woman, and her face changed immediately. She quickly walked over to him.

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...
