Chapter 398
Eleanor’s face turned red as a tomato, and just as she was about to clap back at Hailey, she saw a familiar figure appear in the video
The guy in the white suit snatched Hailey’s cigarette, put it out, and tossed it in the trash before looking down at her
“How many times have I told you not to smoke? Why don’t you ever listen?”
Eleanor was taken aback when she suddenly saw Cedric Laurence on the other end of the video
And Hailey seemed even more surprised, apparently not expecting Cedric to show up at the club, let alone talk to her They hadn’t been in touch since their unpleasant encounter at the club, and it seemed like they had cut off all contact.
But months later, Cedric showed up at her club again, snatching her cigarette just like before
This left Hailey a bit puzzled….
Because she remembered seeing Cedric at the hospital with a beautiful lady going into the gynecology department
His cautious movements clearly indicated he had gotten someone pregnant and was accompanying her for an abortion
Although Cedric changed girlfriends often, he was very focused during his relationships. Since he already had a new flame, why would he come looking for her Hailey was full of doubts, but Cedric showed no emotion, just glanced at Eleanor in the video
“Ms. Shultz, I need to borrow your best friend for a moment.”
With that, he hung up the video call
Eleanor stared at the screen as the call ended, slowly coming back to her senses.
The situation between Hailey and Cedric was both complicated and simple
Eleanor had asked Hailey for her opinion on Cedric, and she said it was just a brief affair
Eleanor felt a tinge of envy, and after searching the bookshelves, she turned her attention to the row of cabinets
Opening them one by one and looking in each, she couldn’t find what she needed until she reached the very last cabinet
The top shelf of the cabinet was filled with all sorts of papers, pens, and rulers-everything she needed was right there.
She picked out a few items and was about to leave but while closing the door, she noticed something familiar in the bottom of the cabinet
Putting down the painting tools, Eleanor opened the bags and found her previously lost items
her sister’s album, Pearce’s golden paintbrush, her bank card, and various sketches.
When all these items appeared before her eyes, Eleanor was completely stunned…

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...
