A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 242

Chapter 242 

Halley’s expression paused for a moment, and then quickly showed a hint of disgust. 

“Do you know why he didn’t let me go to his hometown back then?” 

“Because of Allysha?” 

Hailey nodded and started to tell her about what happened back then: 

“Austin and Allysha are not biological siblings, they’ve been together for a while, and both of their parents agreed to it. But to satisfy Allysha’s vanity, she wanted Austin to buy a high–end house in the city. But they couldn’t afford the house prices in A City. In order to buy a house, Austin started targeting me. “He knew I was an orphan, and that I was just selling drinks at a nightclub for work, so he pretended to be friendly and approached me. In the end, he successfully made me fall in love with him, but later I found out that his relationship with Allysha was fishy! 

“On the night I found out you were dying of heart failure, I saw them doing it in the hospital, but I didn’t want you to worry about me before you died, so didn’t tell you the truth and led to you that there was nothing going on between them. In fact, they’ve been fooling me all along.” 

After hearing all this, Eleanor sat up straight and hugged Haley tightly, feeling heartbroken for her.. 

After Hailey and Austin got together, she worked hard to make more money and relieve Austin’s financial pressure 

What’s infuriating is that the man Hailey thought she could rely on for a lifetime was actually lying to her all along 

This cruel truth was discovered when she learned that Eleanor was about to die. Haley must have been devastated back then. 

She hugged Hailey, trying to ease the pain in her heart with an embrace, but Hailey patted her back with a smile. 

“It’s okay, I was in pain for a while after I found out the truth, but then I became strong.” 

“I installed cameras in our house, recorded all their dirty deeds, and sent them to a lawyer.” 

“I won the lawsuit, but I didn’t get the house because his parents paid the down payment before our marriage, so all I could get was the mortgage loan, the money I spent on him, and compensation for emotional distress.” 

“But unexpectedly, I don’t know who helped me, but they exposed Austin’s deceptive marriage in order to buy a house online, and Austin was discredited because of it. The company he worked for fired him, and other big companies didn’t want to hire him.” 

“As far as I know, he now works in real estate sales, but his salary is far from enough to pay the mortgage. In the end, he still has to rely on Allysha for money and his mother has cancer, so she desperately needs money, which is why he keeps coming to me asking for it.” 

Hailey said this with a sneer and a hint of anger in her eyes. “Does he still think I’m as easy to deceive as I was before? Does he think begging me on his knees is enough to squeeze money out of me? Me not sending someone to teach him a lesson is already being nice to him!” 

After learning about what happened during these three years, Eleanor felt extremely sad for Haley’s experiences: “Hailey, you’re such a good person, you’ll definitely meet someone better. 

Hearing this, the anger in Hailey’s eyes gradually faded, replaced by a complex expression. 

She seemed to have some secrets that were hard to speak, but she didn’t know how to tell them. 

Just as she was struggling to find a way to say it, her phone’s vibration interrupted her thoughts.
