A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 

She lost her knife and was tightly held by the man. 

This helpless feeling made her super bummed out. 

So she just squatted down, knelt on the ground, and cried her eyes out while covering her face. 

“Stop crying,” the man said coldly to comfort her. 

Eleanor couldn’t care less, lying on the floor, sobbing her heart out, looking quite pathetic. 

The man seemed helpless, sighed, squatted down, and gently touched Eleanor’s hair. 

After she resisted and pushed him away, he said indifferently. “I’ve been missing you for a long time, and couldn’t hold back just 

now. Sorry.” 

Missing her for a long time? 

So this jerk didn’t do this on a whim, but had planned it for a long time? 

He pretended to be Josef to text her, proving he knew she was Josef’s girlfriend. 

And Josef announced that she was his girlfriend, was the night at the Midnight Bar. 

Eleanor thought carefully, and on that night, there were men with this height and physique. 

Besides Bernard, there were Cedric and many other rich kids. 

The Laurence Group brothers all looked down on her, so they wouldn’t have done this sort of thing. 

So, this man in front of her might be one of Josef’s friends. 

He was familiar with Josef, so he knew Josef was in a meeting when she called to ask. 

With that thought, Eleanor’s mind became clearer, and only someone related to Josef would do this kind of thing. 

She suddenly felt terrified when she thought about how she had just begged him to let her go while telling him her plan. 

If he told Josef about it, she could forget about killing him. Instead, they might take her out! 

Eleanor was so frightened that she was trembling all over, very desperate, and felt breathless. 

The man picked up the short knife, glanced at it, and guessed her plan after tricking Josef with the fake contract. 

“You plan on tricking Josef into drinking the drugged wine, and then using this knife to kill him?” 

Eleanor clenched her fists in anger. This guy was quite clever, and he saw right through her plan. 

He threw the knife away and coldly warned Eleanor, “If you ever get into danger, come to me. Don’t take risks like this again.” 

*Come to you?” 

Eleanor sneered, “I don’t even know who you are, what your name is or what you look like. How am I supposed to find you?” 

The man didn’t answer, picked up her phone, opened her WhatsApp, and added his number. 

After adding him, he handed the phone back to Eleanor. 

“As long as you send me a message, I’ll come to save you as fast as I can.” 

Eleanor looked at the WhatsApp name displayed on the phone, Mr Law. 

She thought quickly but couldn’t figure out who he was. 

She guessed that it must be a fake name. 

The man in front of her didn’t want to show his true face, so naturally, he wouldn’t reveal any suspicious information. 

As she lowered her head to ponder, the man suddenly picked her up 

Eleanor thought he was going to do something bad again and struggled with all her might. 

But he just put her back on the bed, pulled up the covers, and tucked her in. 

He bent over to say to her, “Get some rest, and don’t wait for Josef. He won’t be coming back”
