Chapter 351
He didn’t say the rest, but Sophie got his drift.
If his big brother wasn’t into her, he would’ve given her the boot a long time ago.
Sophie was so mad she turned pale, but she was also scared shitless.
If he found out about that incident back then….
She couldn’t bear to think about it, let alone kick up a fuss in front of him.
Sophie clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and watched the Koenigsegg drive into the estate, fuming.
He could never uncover the past, but she had dirt on him.
Bernard, you’ll pay through the nose for your betrayal!
Back at his villa, Bernard took off his coat and handed it to a servant, asking for some sanitizer.
The servant quickly brought it to him, and he sprayed some on the finger that Sophie had almost touched.
After cleaning up, Bernard headed to his study, tidied up some work, and opened a drawer.
Seeing his private phone, he felt a pang in his heart and found it hard to breathe.
He took a deep breath, picked up the phone, turned it on, and stared at the only name in the contacts.
She said he didn’t even save her number, but little did she know, he had it memorized.
And his private phone only had her.
Bernard gripped his phone tighter but finally let go with a heavy heart.
He walked over to the safe, put his phone inside, and locked it.
From now on, he wouldn’t touch anything related to her, and he wouldn’t hurt as much.
Bernard touched the safe, grabbed his files and work phone, and left his study.
Aidyn had packed up his personal belongings. Seeing Bernard come out of his study, he immediately approached him, “Mr. Laurence, the plane is ready.”
Bernard nodded, handed everything to Aidyn, and instructed coldly, “I’ll be at the airbase this year, out of the loop. If the company faces an emergency, let Cedric call the shots. Whatever he decides, make sure everyone’s on board. If the Laurence family is in a pinch, reach out to my older sister first”
Aidyn replied respectfully, “Yes, sir.”
After giving his instructions, Bernard got in the car, which quickly headed to the airport.
As he flipping through a finance magazine in his private jet, he received a call.
He glanced at the number on the screen, somewhat reluctant to answer, but he remembered he needed the caller’s help.
He frowned and answered. “What’s up?” he asked coldly.

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...
