As soon as the plane landed in A City, Bernard quickly pulled the needle out of his hand and stood up to leave the plane.
Caleb saw him struggling to stand, yet still forcing himself to walk out wobbling.
He immediately rushed

As soon as he s
him coming out of the airport, he went up to meet him, “Mr Laurence.”
Bernard nodded calmly and looked at Caleb, “You can go back now
Caleb respectfully replied ‘yes‘ and quickly turned to leave.
He was always with Mr. Laurence, only appearing when action was needed.
After Caleb left, Aidyn looked at the pale and skinny Bernard.
He remembered that four months ago, Mr. Laurence was in good spirits, but now he looked haggard.
The only person who could make Mr. Laurence look like this was probably Ms. Shultz.
They must have met in W City and had a conflict, so Mr. Laurence got so angry that his health deteriorated.
Aidyn knew this very well, so he didn’t ask any more questions and just helped Bernard quickly get in the car.
“Mr. Laurence, I’ll take you home, then ask Liana to come and check on your health.

Hailey, who opened the door, was taken aback when she saw Bernard’s pale face. She quickly regained her composure and politely asked, “Mr. Laurence, are you here to see Eleanor?”
Bernard nodded slightly. “Is she inside? I’ll go to find her.”
He leaned against the wall, wanting to rush in to find Eleanor, but Hailey stopped him: “Mr. Laurence, she’s not here.‘
Hearing that she wasn’t there, the man’s heart sank: “Where is she?”
Hailey apologized, “She and Pearce went to survey the next project site.”

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...
