Chapter 1232
Whenever Bernard and Eleanor made love, they always put each other’s feelings first, which made Eleanor get lost in it swiftly.
She thought once would be enough, but Bemard was like a man possessed, time and time again, until she couldn’t take it anymore. Only then did he take her for a bath.
Bernard wasn’t always this tender, but since they got married, he’s become all soft and mushy, even taking on the task of bathing.
Watching Bernard wash her hair with such care, Eleanor’s heart swelled with love.
“Honey, you said you’d tell me once we’re done. Why haven’t you said anything yet?”
Bemard’s hand paused, weighing something in his mind, but in the end, he said nothing, only asking: “Cedric sent two pieces of news. Which one do you wanna hear first?”
He decided to tell her about the Area Opaca later. Telling her now would only scare her.
Eleanor, enjoying Bemard’s service, felt extremely comfortable and closed her eyes.
“Whatever.”
Bernard leaned down, planted a soft kiss on her forehead, and quietly said:
“First, he’s won back Ms. Vulpe, and they’ve tied the knot.”
Hearing this, Eleanor’s eyes popped open in surprise –
“Cedric and Hailey got hitched? When did this happen?!”
This big news, and Hailey didn’t even tell her? Were they even friends?
Seeing Eleanor’s surprise, Bernard’s lips curled up in a loving smile.
“Yesterday.”
They just got married yesterday, so perhaps Hailey didn’t have time to tell her. With that thought, Eleanor jumped up.
“I’m gonna ask her.”
But Bernard reached out, pushing her back down.
“I haven’t told you the second piece of news yet.”
Only then did Eleanor lie back down in the tub, signaling for Bernard to continue.
“In ten months, Cedric’s gonna be a dad.”
Eleanor blinked, not quite catching on.
“He’s becoming a dad, does that have anything to do with him marrying Hailey, he…”
Eleanor stopped there, staring at Bernard in disbelief.
“Is it… is Hailey pregnant?”
Bernard nodded, smiling.
Coming back to her senses, Eleanor took a deep breath.
“No wonder they got married so quickly. So Hailey’s pregnant…”
Muttering to herself, she then looked back at Bernard.
Did he rush back to find her because he was stimulated by Cedric?
With that thought, Eleanor looked down at her own belly.
Seeing her mood, Bernard quickly lifted her out of the water, sitting her on his lap.
“Honey, it’s okay if we don’t have a kid,”
Although he wanted to give her a child, it was okay if they couldn’t conceive.
Whatever happened, he would keep his promise, come back safely, and spend the rest of his life with her,
Eleanor saw the deep concern and love in his eyes, knowing he truly didn’t mind.
However, she could feel that Bernard yearned for a child deep down. Even if he didn’t want one, he could be swayed by the influence of
others.
She reached out her soft, delicate hand, gently cradling Bernard’s handsome face, then leaned down to tenderly kiss his lips.
“Darling, let’s give it another shot.”

He would do his best to try, she would do her best to take the medication. One day, she would get pregnant, because positive efforts
pay off.
“Aren’t you tired?”
Bernard worried about her well-being, but Eleanor didn’t care, wrapping her arms around 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...
