Chapter 137
“So you really did plan it with him!”
A freezing cold voice came from above, making Eleanor pause.
1 didn’t plan anything with him.”
Then how did he know you were here?”
I’m not sure, maybe because…
“Don’t make excuses. Weren’t you just trying to contact him by getting me to find your bag?”
Her explanation was cut off coldly by Bernard Laurence.
Seeing his indifferent expression, Eleanor stopped talking.
He already believed that she had contacted Jason to pick her up, so no matter how much she explained, he wouldn’t believe her. It was better to just drop it.
“As soon as you recovered, he came to pick you up. If that’s not planning, then what is it?”
His distrust made Eleanor feel exhausted, and she took a deep breath before coldly saying, “Yeah, I planned it with him. The day I could walk again, I told him to come get me.”
When Bernard saw her admit it, he sneered. His eyes were full of sarcasm.
“You’re really cheap, can’t wait to get into bed with him even though your body hasn’t fully recovered yet!”
The usually calm and composed man, with great self-cultivation, actually said such harsh words.
Eleanor, recovering from disbelief, raised her face and provocatively smiled at him.
“Mr. Laurence, you’re right. I can’t wait to get into bed with him, so please let me go and stop wasting my time!”
Her intentionally emphasized words made the man holding her suddenly stiffen.
Eleanor knew she had angered him, but she didn’t know if she was too angry or just being brazen. She just didn’t want to let Bernard off easy.
She was like a thorny rose, jabbing her thorns fiercely into Bernard: “Mr. Laurence, we’re already done, and you’re getting married. Let’s cut it clean and never see each other again. And don’t come looking for me, okay?”
The man’s body grew more rigid, and he darkly said, “What did you say?”
His pleasant voice was mixed with stifled rage.
Eleanor locked eyes with his cold, sword-like gaze and said harshly, “I said stop holding on to me, I don’t want to see you again, and I beg you to let me go home with him…”
After they broke up, he had come to see her a few times, making her mistakenly think he couldn’t let her
But after hearing him say that she was just to fulfill physical need for him, Eleanor decided to cut ties completely.
Since she wanted to cut ties, she had to be resolute in her words, or she would appear indecisive.
She thought that her decisiveness would make him let her go and kick her out of his house.
But instead of letting her go, he held her waist with one hand and pinned her against the floor-to-ceiling window.
The moment his lips touched hers, Eleanor was utterly stunned….
He wasn’t kissing her, but rather biting her upper and lower lips viciously

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...
