Chapter 266
Eleanor couldn’t help but laugh coldly when she heard that. “If I’m not wrong, Mr. Laurence, you must be chasing after me because you couldn’t find someone more compatible with you in bed.”
Bernard’s pale face grew even darker, his eyes turning bloodshot as he concealed the intense emotions raging within him.
His fury seemed to reach its peak as he uncontrollably grabbed her face and forcefully drew her petite body towards him.
With a fierce gaze fixed on her, he gritted his teeth and spoke through them, “You’re absolutely right. I simply can’t find anyone more compatible than you in bed, and that’s precisely why I refuse to let you go.”
Eleanor felt a suffocating pain in her chest, but she forced it down.
She seemingly didn’t care and smiled at him, “I’m married and no longer in that business. Please, Mr. Laurence, don’t come to me again.”
Bernard’s heart hurt, the dense pain tightly ensnaring him, leaving him trapped.
Eleanor opened her swollen lips, “Mr. Laurence, my husband is waiting for me. Would you mind letting me go?”
Bernard stared at her with red eyes, “If he’s your husband, then what am I to you?”
Eleanor replied indifferently, “A former sugar daddy”
Bernard scoffed, suppressing the heart-wrenching pain, and looked at her coldly “Eleanor, you’re really cruel.”
Was she really, though? Her cruelty couldn’t compare to even one-thousandth of his.
Eleanor had no intention of getting entangled with him further. She gave his hand, which refused to let her go, a cold glare. “Let go!”
Instead of letting go, Bernard held her even tighter. “I won’t let you go with Ethan.”
Ethan had conspired with their villa’s s***nts and airport staff to deceive Bernard to prevent him from finding Eleanor.
If Bernard hadn’t been so persistent and had called the airline director to check on Ethan’s flight, Eleanor would have long been gone.
He could bear her cold words and indifference, even her not loving him, but he couldn’t stand her leaving with another man!
Eleanor suddenly felt it was ridiculous. “Is my body really so unforgettable to you?”
Ignoring his excruciating pain, Bernard forced himself to reply, “That’s right.”
Since she didn’t believe he loved her, why bother trying to convince her? Why not just force her to stay with him this way?
Eleanor emotionlessly nodded slightly in his embrace. “Fine”
After that, she used her small hand against his chest to undress him.
Bernard froze in place, not understanding what she was trying to do.
It wasn’t until she unbuttoned his shirt, tiptoed to kiss his throat that he realized what she was doing.
He felt numb all over, wanting her right there and then. But he held back.
He grabbed her hand, lowering his head and voice to ask, “What are you doing?”
Eleanor calmly said, “You can’t forget my body, right? So, I’m giving it to you.”
After that, she looked at him coldly, “And after that, please just let me go.”
The hope in Bernard’s eyes gradually dimmed. “So you’re really just being proactive to get away from me.”
Eleanor said coldly, “What else did you think?”
ས
Bernard’s tall and straight body stiffened suddenly, feeling a chill spreading through his bloodstream.

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...
