Chapter 447
The man didn’t dare to squawk anymore.
After a sob, he opened his mouth, and spilled the beans.
“I just… ripped her clothes, grabbed her hands and feet, and… laid on top of her.”
“But I swear, I only touched her there, I absolutely, absolutely didn’t violate her! Please don’t do anything drastic to me because of this!”
“I…”
He didn’t even get to finish his well–rehearsed speech before Caleb slapped him hard across his face.
“Shut up!!!”
He had dealt with so many bad guys, but none was as annoying as this one. His incessant noise was about to drive him crazy.
If it weren’t for the boss handling this personally, he would’ve gagged this guy and not let him make a peep.
Bernard completely disregarded the man’s words, the small knife in his hand slowly moving downward.
“Where did you hurt her?”
This time the man didn’t dare to stall, quickly confessing, “Her arm, I just poked her with a knife, I didn’t dare to go too hard.”
The task he was given was to violate her, not hurt her. He was afraid of retaliation later, so he didn’t dare to be too vicious.
Who would’ve thought that even though he didn’t succeed, the people who wanted revenge for her still showed up, and they seemed like no ordinary bunch.
After getting his answer, Bernard suddenly withdrew his knife.
Just when the man thought he was going to be let go, he saw Bernard grip the knife handle, flip his wrist, and stab down hard into his
arm.
That small knife, though it looked tiny, was ten times sharper than the one sent by the puppet master behind the scenes.
At the moment it pierced his skin, the pain was so intense that he couldn’t even speak.
Yet the man in the golden bronze mask had no intention of letting him off the hook that easily.
“Ah!!!”
The man screamed in pain and fainted.
Seeing this, Caleb immediately ordered someone to bring a bucket of cold water and douse him with it.
After just a few seconds, the ice–cold water awakened the man who had passed out from the pain.
His pupils dilated at the sight of the man holding the knife, slightly tilting his head, and staring at him coldly.
The fear that unconsciously surfaced in his eyes made him cry again, with snot and tears running down his face.
“Sir, I was just being employed. Please, I beg you, let me go…”
Bernard tapped the man’s bloodless face with the small knife, “Do you know who I am?”

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...
