A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164

To Eleanor, her words were insulting, but Liana was frightening.

Liana hurried to stand in front of Eleanor to apologize for her, “Ms. Valona, she didn’t know who you are, and that’s why she dared to say those words to you. I’m really sorry. Can you give her a break and let her off just this time?”

Liana’s humble plea made Eleanor even more guilty, “Dr. Terrill…”

She wanted to say don’t lower herself for her, but Liana stopped her, “Miss, you just came here to see me for some treatment and medicine. I don’t know you well. If you dare to say anything that will upset Ms. Valona again, I won’t treat you anymore!”

Liana was distancing herself from her, actually trying to protect her. Sensing this, Eleanor didn’t say anything more.

Although she felt that the woman in front of her was too arrogant, Liana seemed to be frightened of her. In order not to cause Liana any trouble, Eleanor had to swallow her anger.

Seeing this, Ms. Valona taunted her, “Dr. Terrill, you’re really a good friend. You can’t even protect yourself, yet you want to protect your patient.”

Liana immediately became depressed, lowering her head even more. Her clenched fists and heaving chest revealed her unwillingness to submit.

“Dr. Terrill, it seems like you’re not willing to give in?”

Liana quickly released her fists and shook her head, “How could I? Ms. Valona, you’re a socialite; how could I not submit?”

Joelle sneered, “If you’re willing to submit, then hand her over to me.”

Liana lifted her head in shock, “Take me away instead; she can’t…”

Eleanor was once kept by Bernard, how could she let Joelle take her to the club?!

Seeing Liana’s panic, Joelle smiled even more wickedly.

“Weren’t you saying you’re not close with her?”

“For someone you’re not close with, you’re willing to go so far as to become a hooker. That’s really too selfless.”

Liana took a deep breath, steeling herself, and through gritted teeth, she began to explain, “You see, she is one of my patients. I work at Mr. Laurence’s hospital, and it’s my responsibility to protect every patient. Ms. Valona, I implore you not to make things difficult for my patients…”
