Chapter 422
He pinned her down on the bed, tormenting her yet again. Eleanor, who was already dealing with a splitting headache, was now in so much pain that she was shivering all over.
She stared at the indifferent Bemand, with the disappointment in her eyes deepening. Are you going to let me go when you’ve had your fill of fun?”
Bernard’s fingers traced her skin inch by inch. “I can never get enough of you. Don’t even think about leaving me in this lifetime”
His icy touch sent chills down Eleanor’s spine. She tried to move away, but he held her down, refusing to let her resist.
She clenched her fists, raising her eyes to meet his. “Do you think I’ll stay just because I’m carrying your child?”
A bloodthirsty grin appeared on Bernard’s face. “With a child, my Eleanor will stay by my side forever.”
The expression on his face was full of smiles, as if he was picturing their happy family life together.
Eleanor stared at Bernard, her voice cold. “Even if I’m carrying your child, I’m leaving
The fingers on her skin stiffened, a hint of pain flashed in the man’s eyes, quickly overtaken by a cold look.
“That’s not up to you!”
What he meant by that was keeping her confined in this villa.
He stubbornly believed that once she was pregnant, she would not leave.
Eleanor, deprived of her freedom, refused to cat, take medication, or drink water.
She lay on the bed, staring out the window at a sea of flowers…
Bernard sat at the edge of the bed, holding out medication, coaxing her. “Eleanor, you need to take your medicines.
The person on the bed still didn’t respond, seemingly lost in her own world.
Bernard felt a sudden sense of helplessness. “Eleanor, do you really want to go back to him that badly?”
He stared at her, waiting for a while, but she still ignored him.
Bernard tightened his grip on the medication, took a deep breath, and let go of his denched fingers.
“Eleanor, you promised me that once I returned, you’d accompany me to Jorvik to see the Northern Lights. As long as you watch the lights with me, I…”
He paused, leaving the rest unsaid. His eyes filled with longing and reluctance…
He watched her, being silent for a long time, then opened the pillbox, took out a pill, and forced it into her mouth..
The bitterness spread, causing Eleanor’s eyelashes to flutter.
He joyfully lifted her from the bed. “Eleanor, won’t you eat something?”
Eleanor, with her dilated pupils, appeared oblivious to his words. She felt so dizzy and weak that everything in front of her turned black.
Just as Bernard was about to feed her some soup, she suddenly slumped against his shoulder.
The hand holding the spoon froze, and Bernard quickly looked at Eleanor, only to see her eyes tightly closed.
His face turned pale, his heart seeming to stop beating.

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...
