Chapter 308
“Garett, we said when we were little that we’d live together when we grew up. Now that you and Eleanor are back, why don’t you move in with me?” Hailey said.
She bought that mansion not just because Eleanor told her in a dream that she was going to build a house for thern in another world, but also because she remembered the promise they made when they were young.
After all the twists and turns, and separations, they should live together as family, cherishing every day.
But when Hailey suggested this, Yilia immediately disagreed, “No way, Mr. Falsey can’t leave here, it’s too risky”
Hailey paused, then understood.
Even if Jason was dead, it didn’t mean that he was forever safe.
If the Clowers family found out he was still alive, he could be in danger..
It seemed they couldn’t just hang out carefree like they did when they were young.
She, Eleanor, Garett, they all took different paths in life as they grew up.
Hailey finally understood that some promises and wishes were hard to fulfill.
Seeing Hailey looking disappointed, Yilia quickly explained, afraid she’d think Mr. Falsey was being deprived of his freedom. “Hailey, Mr. Falsey isn’t completely trapped here. The Laurence family has people protecting him around, he can go for walks, shop, and watch. movies in the neighborhood with a mask and a hat on. He just shouldn’t leave this area, as Mr. Laurence can’t always guarantee his safety 24/7:
Eleanor, who had been silent all this time, slightly changed her expression when she heard this. She hadn’t expected Bernard not only saved Garett, but also arranged for people to protect him.
He did this not just for her, but to give Garett some freedom. But how many resources must he be using to ensure Garett’s safety in such a big city? These revelations were increasing the pressure on Eleanor.
After Yilia finished, Hailey instinctively looked at Eleanor.
Though she didn’t show any visible emotion, Hailey knew she must be hurting inside.
The day Eleanor ran into her arms in the rain, crying that he truly loved her, she had guessed what was in Eleanor’s heart.
She had just thought Eleanor rejected Bernard because she couldn’t forgive the past hurts, not knowing that Garett was alive.
Now seeing Garett in a wheelchair, Hailey understood everything.
Eleanor, knowing that Garett wasn’t the one who hurt her in the past, would definitely choose Garett. After all, without Garett working hard to buy medicine for Eleanor, she might not have grown up safely.
But Bernard…

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...
