Chapter 299
The moment he saw that huddled figure, his heart skipped a beat, “Stop the car-”
Caleb immediately slowed down and pulled over. “Sir, what’s wrong?”
Bernard pushed open the door, got out of the car quickly, and strode towards Eleanor.
Unable to see clearly, Eleanor felt someone approaching and immediately stood up and backed away, “Don’t come near me!”
Seeing her so alert, Bernard thought she didn’t want him close and stopped in his tracks.
The tall figure stood still, silently watching her without speaking. His cold eyes were tinged with a touch of red, even the corners of his eyes were reddened
It was only at this moment that he realized the end of relationship meant not even being able to take a step closer to her.
Eleanor didn’t know who the person in front of her was, only that he stopped when she yelled. But she couldn’t see now, and if he noticed that, he might come closer again.
Her anger was gradually replaced by fear. She quickly turned around and, regardless of whether she could see or not, ran forward with her head down.
Her resistance, alertness, and disregard made Bernard’s heart ache unbearably.
He was wrong. He said he wouldn’t bother her anymore, but he still couldn’t help but want to get closer. His eyes reddened as he watched her figure get farther and farther away, and he said to Caleb, “Follow her, but don’t let her notice.
Caleb nodded immediately and quickly followed.
Bernard suppressed his inner pain, turned around, and returned to the car.
As soon as he got in, he saw Ethan’s car driving by. He knew that their quarrel had caused Eleanor to run away from home.
Now Garett could get close to her, so could Ethan, but only he couldn’t.
He smiled bitterly, a smile that made him look like he was being swallowed by darkness.
Before long, Caleb returned to the car, “Sir, someone came to pick her up.”
Bernard nodded lightly, suppressing his emotions, and said to Caleb, “Let’s go.”
Caleb started the car, and the other vehicles followed suit, with a dozen luxury cars leaving together.
Ethan looked back and saw that the man who had just gotten into the Aston Martin was actually following Eleanor. He had so many people with him, obviously dealing with urgent matters, but when he saw Eleanor, he deliberately stopped to follow her. And it didn’t seem like a whim, but more like he wanted to protect her quietly. Could it be that the man also liked Eleanor?
Ethan retracted his gaze, looking at Eleanor stumbling forward. He frowned, and went to grab her.
“Come home with me.” Ethan said.
At the sound of that deep voice, Eleanor’s heart tightened, and the suffocating feeling of being trapped in the car earlier came back.

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...
