Chapter 307
The man in the wheelchair slowly turned his head and when he saw it was Hailey, a smile spread across his handsome face, “Hailey.” Upon hearing that familiar address, Hailey dared to confirm that the man in front of her was Garett, whom she had treated as her younger brother since childhood.
Tears in her eyes uncontrollably slid down. But she still held her head high, marched towards Garett, crying and scolding at the same time.
Hailey said, “You’re alive, you jerk. You didn’t even bother to tell me! I’ve been praying to God asking him to bring my two loved ones back. Do you know how swollen my knees and eyes are from the kneeling and crying? I can barely see.”
Hailey’s words made Eleanor also tear up. Hailey had sacrificed so much for them, a lifetime wouldn’t be enough to repay her. Garett, looking at his sister who had looked after him since childhood, couldn’t help but well up, “Hailey, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault…”
But Hailey shook her head and said, “I don’t blame you, I know you had no choice.”
Eleanor said that the Clowers family wanted to get rid of him, so how could he tell others he was still alive?
After she finished speaking, she looked at his legs and tears welled up again..
He had always been exceptional since childhood. She thought he would stand at the top of the world through knowledge when he grew
Who would have thought that such an excellent person would never be able to stand again.
She felt regret and pain, “If only you had listened to me that day…”
She told him not to do reckless things, but he didn’t listen and insisted on taking risks.
He had always been so stubborn since childhood; once he made up his mind, no one could persuade him.
Now look, he had lost his legs, how was he supposed to live the rest of his life?
But Garett didn’t mind, he just smiled.
Hailey knew she couldn’t change him, so she stopped trying. She wiped her tears and turned to Eleanor, “Eleanor, God has heard my prayers and returned my two loved ones to me, I need to go to church to thank God.”
Eleanor took her arm and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Garrett opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Hailey interrupted him, saying, “Just stay quiet and behave yourself. It serves you right for not listening to me.
Yilia couldn’t help but laugh, “Mr. Falsey, I thought no one could control you. Turns out these two lovely ladies are your Achilles heel…”
Garett smiled, “I’m lucky to be under their control.”
Colter had previously told Yilia about the three of them, so Yilia just nodded in agreement.
The friendship from childhood was precious, Achilles heel wasn’t really the right term.
Hailey took a look at Yilia, saw her sweet appearance, and found her a bit similar to Eleanor in her teenage years. She took a few more glances at Yilia.
“Who is this?” Hailey asked.

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...
