A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1244

Chapter 1244 

Facing the indifferent Bernard, the folks from the Laurence and Pine families weren’t overly concerned, it was more Garett who felt awkward.. 

He wasn’t comfortable around this couple, always feeling like he was a third wheel. 

Seeing him hanging his head, seated in a wheelchair, not saying a word, Hailey, who had already changed her clothes, took the initiative to sit next to him and strike up a 

conversation. 

With Hailey’s company, Garett’s loneliness began to fade, and he slowly gathered the courage to lift his head and look toward Eleanor, who was sitting quietly opposite him. 

Her hand was held by a man’s large one, resting on his thigh, an intimate gesture that could only come naturally after countless practices. 

Feeling the intensity of his gaze, Eleanor hesitated for a second, then slowly raised her head. As her eyes met Garett’s, she gave a faint smile. 

Seeing that pure smile, Garett realized Eleanor had made peace with the situation and was no longer feeling awkward, encouraging him not to be shy and to be honest. 

After letting out a bitter smile inside, Garett also showed a smile in response to hers. 

Their mutual smiles were caught by Robin, who was sneakily watching Eleanor. 

He couldn’t help but start wondering what the relationship between Jason and Eleanor was. Why were they flirting in such a situation? 

The more he thought about it, the more an idea popped up in his mind are they having an affair? 

– 

At this thought, Robin let out a small chuckle, but he couldn’t hold it in and laughed out loud. 

In the extremely quiet cabin, the sudden laughter drew everyone’s attention… 

Robin immediately wiped the smile off his face and, expressionless, kicked Elbert hard. 

“You are the one who asked me to help you beat Bernard. What are you waiting for?!” 

Elbert, who was kicked for no reason, glared at Robin and then asked the waiter to bring the cards. 

Taking the deck, Elbert spread out the cards in his hand like a magician, then quickly gathered them back. 

Closing the deck, he placed it on the table, and then provocatively looked at Bernard. 

“I suggest a simple contest, not relying on intellect or strength, just luck, how about it?” 

Bernard glanced coldly at Garett, then at Robin, before finally fixing his disdainful gaze on Elbert. 

“What’s the stake?” 

“If we lose, we’ll give you a private jet, two limited-edition sports cars, three villas in the city. If we win…” 

Elbert looked around, his gaze landing on Cedric, “Cedric’s ship belongs to my Pine family.” 

Cedric was at a loss for words. 

Wait a minute, why was his ship at stake in a bet between the Pines and Bernard? 

“And the two robots downstairs.” 

“Deal.” 

The deal was already made before Cedric had time to stop them. 

Cedric could only pin his hopes on Bernard, “Bernard, we have to win!!!” 

His wedding and the adorable robots were all witnesses to his love with Hailey, and they must not lose to that annoying guy! 

Clenching his suit sleeve, Cedric cheered Bernard on, “Bernard, just give the word, I’m ready to do anything for you!”
