Chapter 235
Under the dim streetlight, a tall and upright man stood blankly on the side of the road.
He just stood there, watching a black lussury car whizz by him.
The woman he had missed for three years disappeared from his sight just like that.
His fists clenched, he suppressed the urge to chase her several times, and took out his phone to make a call.
When Liana heard the phone ring, she was lying in Tyler’s arms, with her phone on Tyler’s bedside table.
She wanted to get up and grab her phone, but Tyler frowned and handed her the phone.
He then turned aver, showing impatience of being disturbed by the call, but didn’t leave like he used to.
Liana looked at Tyler’s back and, after hiding her fake satisfied expression after their intimate moment, revealed a nonchalant expression.
She picked up the phone and said respectfuly, “Hello, Mr. Laurence..”
Bernard coldly said, “Liana, is it possible for someone in the late stage of heart failure to come back to life after they die?”
Liana was stunned. This was a taboo for Bernard, and no one had been allowed to mention it in the past three years.
Now, when he suddenly brought up late–stage heart failure was he still hung up on Ms. Shultzs death?
After pondering for a few seconds, Liana replied, Tim sorry, Mr. Laurence, I’m not a heart disease expert, and I can’t give you a defritive answer
As Bernard was about to hang up, Liana added. ‘Mr. Laurence, Dr. George is a renowned international heart disease expert. He must know.”
A glimmer of hope flashed in Bernard’s eyes, and he quickly hung up and dialed George’s number,
George was taking a stroll by the seaside at this moment. Seeing Bernard’s call, he hesitated.
But the call was relentless, and George finally gritted his teeth and answered.
After exchanging pleasantries, Bernard cut to the chase, Or George, is it possible for someone who died from late stage heart failure to come back to life?
Upon hearing this question, George knew Bernard must have seen Eleanor, who had quietly resumed to the country.
Thinking of Ms. Shultz’s final request, George didn’t tell Bernard the truth, but simply answered honestly. “If they still show vital signs and haven’t expenenced bran death, it’s possible.”
Upon hearing this answer, hope flashed in Bernard’s eyes. “So they just need a heart transplant to survive?”
George nodded, “Yes, but they would typically be in a comatose state, similar to a vegetative state, and the chances of waking up are very low.”
Ms. Shultz asked him not to tell Bemard the truth but didnt forbid him from answering Bernard’s questions. This shouldn’t count as breaking his promise, right?
After learning of this possibility Bernard thanked him and hung up
Looking again in the direction of the black luxury car’s departure. Bernard became more determined. That man must have taken his Eleanor away.
But he didn’t believe in the so–called marriage between them at all
Aidyn rushed to the scene with bodyguards and saw Bernard standing in front of his smashed Bugatti
He thought Bernard’s car had been hit and quickly walked towards hm.
“Mr. Laurence, are you okay? Have you been hallucinating because of an overdose of medication?”
In the past three years, Mr. Laurence had been suffering from insomnia, holding two objects imprinted with Ms. Shultz’s mark, keeping vigil all night.
Worried about his health, Aidyn got some sleeping pills from Liana for him, but he became addicted to the drugs.
Later, Aldyn found out that taking too much of these drugs could cause hallucinations.

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...
