A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178 

Seeing her desperate face, Liana couldn’t help but bend down and hug her. 

“Ms. Shultz, thank you.” 

Liana’s hug brought Eleanor back to her senses. She struggled to lift her hand and patted Liana’s back. 

“I should thank you for saving me. If it weren’t for you, I might not have had the chance to say goodbye to my sister.” 

After Hailey left, the nurse came in, checked Eleanor’s body, and told her that it was Dr. Terrill who saved her in time. 

Although Eleanor didn’t know how Liana came to save her, she kept that life–saving favor in her heart. There was no need to ask about other things. 

“Actually, it was…” 

Liana wanted to tell her that it was Mr. Laurence who asked her to save Eleanor, but before she could finish, Eleanor interrupted her, “Dr. Terrill, where’s my sister? I mean, Hailey.” 

It had been two hours since Hailey left, and Eleanor was worried that something might have happened to her. 

Liana, who had been paying attention to Eleanor, didn’t notice that Hailey wasn’t in the ward. 

She glanced around and told Eleanor, “I’ll send someone to look for her.” 

Eleanor thanked her and then looked at the paper bag on the bedside table, “Dr. Terrill, take that bottle of perfume, please.” 

Liana wanted to refuse, but it was a gift Eleanor exchanged with her life. If she didn’t accept it, it would seem a bit ungrateful. 

Liana took the perfume, reminded Eleanor to have a good rest, and then left the ward. Then she called some security guards to check the surveillance videos. 

In the surveillance video, Hailey was seen running out of the hospital and accidentally running into Cedric. It seemed that they had a quarrel. 

But there was no major conflict. After a few words, Hailey left the hospital directly. There was no surveillance record after that. 

Liana pointed to Hailey in the surveillance screen and said to the security guards, “You guys send some people to find her and bring her back.” 

-The security guards immediately went to look for Hailey. After dealing with these things, Liana returned to Eleanor’s ward. 

Seeing that Eleanor had fallen asleep and the nurse was taking good care of her, Liana felt relieved and returned to her office. 

Hailey ran to an unknown place. When she was tired, she found a long corridor and sat there all night. 

It wasn’t until the security guard came and asked if she was Hailey Vulpe that she came back to her senses. She nodded her head blankly. 

The security guard sighed with relief, “Ms. Vulpe, you better get back to the hospital, Dr. Terrill is looking for you everywhere.” 

Hailey was expressionless. After being urged by the security guard, she got up and got into the car with them. 

Back at the hospital, Hailey bumped into Austin, who was handling discharge procedures at the reception desk on the first floor. 

Austin was taken aback by Hailey’s unexpected presence and asked her with curiosity how she had returned. 

Hailey pursed her lips and chose not to answer. 

Austin felt a bit uncomfortable under the intensity of her penetrating eyes and instinctively shifted his gaze. 

“Honey,” he called out nervously, and then asked with a tinge of guilt, “The doctor mentioned that my sister’s baby is not in a stable condition, and it would be best for her to stay close to the hospital until the baby is born. Our house is nearby, so what do you think about letting her stay with us for a while?” 

Can a pregnant woman engage in such activities and still have a healthy baby? 

Hailey wanted to scold him but refrained from saying it aloud. One of her weaknesses was her lack of affection since childhood, making her susceptible to being moved easily. 

However, she also had a strength: she could completely let go of things that betrayed her. Halley gave Austin a cold glare, her eyes devoid of love and filled with disgust.
