Chapter 310
Eleanor watched the scene unfold, and was suddenly reminded of the past. He too had once walked away from her, hand in hand with
Sophie.
Back then, she had no right to say anything. Now, she wouldn’t even care.
They were over. Who he was with had nothing to do with her.
Hailey watched as the two got into the car and then turned to Eleanor.
Seeing that Eleanor had calmed down, she knew what she was thinking, “Eleanor, they just linked arms, don’t get the wrong idea. Plus,
he didn’t even see you. If he knew you were here, he wouldn’t be cozying up to another woman.”
Because Garett was her brother, she naturally leaned towards his side.
But if Eleanor still loved Bernard, the last thing she wanted was for Eleanor to be hurt.
Eleanor smiled at Hailey, “Hailey, I’m not overthinking it, don’t worry.”
Seeing her like this, Hailey didn’t say anything more and took her arm, “Let’s go buy some fruit.”
Eleanor nodded.
As they took the elevator, she couldn’t help but look back one more time.
She saw him, the gentleman, opening the car door for her and she smiled.
In the car, Bernard got in and took off his suit jacket.
The woman glanced at him and couldn’t help but shake her head, “Your obsession with cleanliness has gotten worse.”
Sitting in the back row, playing with his phone, Cedric’s face changed instantly when he heard her voice.
He straightened up and respectfully greeted the woman in the evening dress in the front row.
Veronica Laurence turned to look at Cedric. Seeing his fearful expression, she couldn’t help but laugh, “Cedric, you’re usually so bold, bu why do you always act like a mouse seeing a cat when you see me?”
Cedric, seeing her smile, instinctively swallowed hard but tried to act nonchalant and waved.
In his mind, he was recalling the times he was punished by his older sister.
The Laurence family was a large clan, with strict family rules. The descendants of the Laurence family could all stand out from the crowd, thanks to Veronica. As the eldest daughter in the family, she had been given the responsibility of educating her younger siblings by her grandfather.
Ironically, his six brothers were all gifted and picked up things quickly. However, he only knew how to code. This made him the focus o his big sister’s attention. If he couldn’t learn something or failed a test, he would be immediately punished by her.

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...
