Chapter 150
Liana didn’t know how to respond, she just smiled faintly at Hailey, making her uneasy.
After inviting them to sit on the couch, she turned and knocked on the door to the small bedroom.
“Eleanor, someone’s here for you.”
Eleanor was already awake in the room, hearing their conversation outside, but she didn’t have the strength to get up.
As she tried to sit up, Hailey barged in.
Seeing Eleanor struggling to get up, Hailey rushed over.
“Eleanor, what’s wrong?”
Jason and Liana followed.
Jason tried to get closer, but Liana got there first, “I’m the doctor here, give me some space.”
Jason stepped aside, and Liana went up to Eleanor, placing her hand on her forehead and then taking out a thermometer to check her temperature.
“Were you caught in the rain earlier?”
Although her temperature wasn’t high, it was still quite dangerous for Eleanor.
She had been drenched at the entrance of the Laurence family’s villa. Jason had tried to shield her from the rain with his coat, but she still got wet.
Looking guilty, he wanted to hold Eleanor’s hand, but she avoided him.
Fearing that her illness would be exposed in front of Liana, Eleanor only avoided Jason’s touch without driving him away.
Her rejection was like a thorn in his heart.
He knew that his Eleanor would never be the same as before…
They had agreed that whenever she said harsh words when angry, he shouldn’t take it seriously.
After she had cooled down, he would come back to appease her, and she would forgive him.
But he had been waiting outside the door all night long, and still couldn’t make Eleanor forgive him…
Naturally, Liana noticed their actions and was suspicious, but since she came to treat Eleanor, she didn’t ask further.
“It’s just a mild fever, taking some fever reducer will help.”
After checking her temperature and giving her some medicine, Liana handed her a bag and some boxes of medicine.
“Here are your things that were left with Mr. Laurence. He asked me to return them to you…”
Originally, Liana wanted to give Eleanor more medicine, but seeing her giving subtle hints not wanting the other two to know about her Illness, Liana didn’t take them out.
Eleanor expressed her gratitude and thanked her for hiding her illness.
Liana understood her meaning and winked at her, “You’re welcome.”
Eleanor looked at the coat on the table, “Dr. Terrill, could you take that coat back to him?”
Liana looked where she was pointing.
It was Mr. Laurence’s coat, how did it end up with Eleanor? In theory, since they broke up, why would she still wear his coat?
Liana had many doubts but didn’t ask directly, she just nodded, picked up the coat and the medical kit, and left.
Hailey breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Eleanor had only a mild fever.
She sat by the bedside helping Eleanor sit up, handing her the fever reducer and a cup of water.

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...
