Chapter 442
When Eleanor saw the message from Mr. Law, she was quite surprised.
Mr. Law hadn’t replied to her messages for months. She thought he was done with her, but he actually replied this time.
She held her phone nervously and asked Pearce, “Do you remember Mr. Law? He replied to me and wants to meet up.”
Pearce took her phone, glanced at it, and confidently said, “Set up the meeting, I’ll help you handle him!”
Eleanor remembered the last time in the hospital parking lot when Mr. Law was indeed scared off by Pearce, so she believed him.
She started typing on her phone, then looked at Pearce with a puzzled face.
“When should I meet him? Where? And how do we catch him?”
They shouldn’t rush into a meeting without a plan, or they might get themselves into trouble.
Pearce grabbed her phone and quickly typed, “Tomorrow night at 10, Oceanview Hotel, room 2203. See you there.
Eleanor frowned when she saw that he had set the meeting at a hotel. “Why a hotel?”
Pearce raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t his goal to sleep with you? He wouldn’t come out if it’s not at a hotel.”
Eleanor thought about it, and it was true that Mr. Law had tried to sleep with her every time they met.
Especially over a month ago, when he stabbed her arm just for that purpose.
Thinking of this, Eleanor’s hatred rose, and she clenched her fists. “This time, I must find a way to catch him!”
Pearce seemed calmer than Eleanor, “Let’s see how he replies first…”
Bernard was surprised when Eleanor replied.
He was shocked when he saw the message about meeting at a hotel.
He stared at the chat, reading it over and over, still not quite believing it.
Why would Eleanor take the initiative to meet him at a hotel?
Bernard was puzzled but still replied quickly: [See you there]
He wanted to see Eleanor, no matter what her purpose was. Seeing her was more important than anything else.
Pearce handed the phone back to Eleanor after seeing the reply, “See? He agreed to meet at a hotel right away, such a pervert!‘
Eleanor ignored Pearce’s sarcasm, worriedly asking, “Now that the time and place are set, how do we catch him?”
Pearce wasn’t worried at all, reassuring her, “That hotel is owned by my master. The staff there will follow my orders. Once he’s in the hotel, he’s done for. I’ll help you catch this criminal!”
As a precaution, Pearce suggested, “It would be safer to bring the police when we catch Mr. Law.”
Eleanor nodded in agreement, “Tomorrow, I’ll go to the police, and you arrange the hotel. We’ll split up and take action!”
In his study, Bernard stared at the message from Eleanor, a smile gradually appearing in his empty eyes.
The next day, at 7 pm, Bernard removed the syringe from his hand and went to the bathroom.
After cleaning himself up, he put on a custom–made white shirt and tidied his wet hair.
His handsome face and tall figure were reflected in the mirror.
He gently unbuttoned his shirt collar, then picked up his uniform jacket and left.
This time, he wanted to tell Eleanor about the origin of Mr. Law’s identity and clarify the misunderstandings between them.
So, he didn’t wear a mask or disguise himself but went to see her as Bernard, openly and honestly.

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...
