Chapter 360
Hailey thought to herself, this Mr. Law was always lurking in the shadows and Eleanor could be in danger at any moment, so they must find him ASAP.
Only by getting him behind bars could they finally relax.
Pearce, acting as Eleanor’s driver, sighed helplessly as he saw the two of them head to the emergency room again and followed them.
Eleanor’s arm injury wasn’t too serious, and after a quick treatment, the three of them left the hospital.
Pearce drove both ladies home and had dinner with them.
As Hailey and Eleanor discussed how to find Mr. Law, Pearce, busy eating, mumbled, “We could try luring him out.”
Hailey was about to object since she had tried this method three years ago, but Eleanor said, “Now that he knows I’m alive, he’ll definitely come after me again. We can’t just be on the defensive, we need to take the initiative.”
With that, Eleanor took out her phone and opened her contacts.
She removed Mr. Law from the blacklist, logged into Whatsapp, and accepted his friend request.
After a moment of thought, she started texting Mr. Law –
“Mr. Law, since you know I’m still alive, let’s meet up and clear the air.”
Eleanor’s message was simple and straightforward she wanted to meet with him.
Knowing Mr. Law’s intelligence, he would definitely understand that she wanted to catch him.
But if he wanted to see her and had the chance to meet up, he would surely agree.
Eleanor planned to call the police as soon as they set a meeting, and on the day of the meeting, she would bring the cops along. There was no way he could escape this time!
Hailey was still a bit worried, “What if he doesn’t dare to show up like last time? I would have caught him already
Eleanor put down her phone and frowned, “If he doesn’t dare to come, I’ll figure something else out. Let’s give it a try first.”
Hailey nodded, glanced at Pearce who was almost done eating, and said, “Pearce, can you leave some food for Eleanor?”
Pearce pretended not to hear, finished the last piece of beef on his plate, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly.
Hailey rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Eleanor and smiled, “I’ll make you something delicious tonight.”
Eleanor didn’t really care about food and just stared at her phone, waiting for a message.
It was strange. Mr. Law had always replied to her messages quickly before, but now it’d been a while and he still hadn’t responded. What could he be thinking?
After finishing his meal, Pearce picked up his suit jacket, stood up, and said to Eleanor, “Starting tomorrow, I’ll teach you how to draw design sketches.”
Hearing this, Eleanor put down her phone and nervously asked, “What do I need to prepare?”
Pearce laughed and said, “Just your hands.”
Eleanor was taken aback and didn’t respond. Pearce glanced at her, threw his suit jacket over his shoulder, and swaggered out of the villa.

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...
