Chapter 384
Eleanor took a deep breath, her face turning red. She really shouldn’t have given in just now
Seeing her angry look, Bernard’s eyes twinkled with amusement.
He couldn’t help but lean down and kiss her again before letting her go “Alright, cut it out. Let’s get up and eat something”
Eleanor wasnt in the mood to eat at all. She hadn’t even had enough sleep and had been woken up by his kisses. She was so annoyed! Seeing that she didn’t want to get up. Bernard didn’t push her. He got up, brought some pancakes, and sat down on the sofa by the bed
He held a pancake up to her lips. “Open up.”
Eleanor shot him a glance, turned her body away, and propped her head up with both hands, staring at the garden outside the window and suking Looking at her back, a hint of indulgence flickered in Bernard’s eyes.
“Eleanor, if you’re not hungry, there’s a place on me that’s starving. Wanna give it a try?”
Hearing this, Eleanor turned around, staring at him with wide, angry eyes.
Bernard’s elbows were propped on his knees, leaning in to meet her gaze
“Eleanor, I’ve held back for several years, and it’s been really hard…”
Not wanting to hear any more of his outrageous words, Eleanor got up, wrapped in the blanket, and reached out her hand to him.
“Give me the pancake.”
Bernard shook his head gently
“I’ll feed you.”
Tm perfectly capable of taking care of myself.”
Bernard didn’t reply and instead just quietly watched her.
After taking a deep breath, Eleanor slightly opened her lips, and Bernard picked up the spoon again.
After feeding her, he asked softly, “Do you want more?”
Eleanor shook her head, watching Bernard put down the bowl and pick up a napkin to wipe her mouth.
Bernard’s eyes softened, but a hint of jealousy appeared “What do you need him for?”

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...
