Chapter 455
Bernard lifted his trembling fingers, wiping the tears on her cheeks over and over again.
Her teary–eyed appearance made the man’s eyes well up too.
It was the first time he had heard her express her love for him, orying with disappointment.
It was only at this moment that he realized that his Eleanor loved him so much.
But he had hurt her and never gave her enough security, making her so sensitive
He wanted her, but he never thought about how much pain he caused he
His fingers went around her hair and held the back of her head, letting her oy uncontrollably on his shoulder,
“Eleanor, I promise you, from now on, there won’t be any other women beside me except for you
As he said this, it was like a vow, and the emotions in his eyes were unwavering farth and a commitment to be for life.
Eleanor, leaning on his shoulder, hugged him tightly and cried. Then she raised her hand and wiped the tears from the comer of her eyes bit by bit.
After she slowly recovered from her past emotions, she sat up straight and looked down at the man wit etened eyes,
“Bernard, it’s not only these things that aren’t working between us
The man on the couch didn’t respond, just using his fingertips to wipe the tear sans on her fact
Eleanor opened her mouth to continue speaking, but Bernard pressed his cold fingertips organst her lips
“Eleanor, your eyes can’t cry like this. No more crying in the future.”
He didn’t want to hear her say anything about them not working, in his view, there was nothing not wording As long as they loved each other, everything else would work out.
Eleanor gently pushed his fingers away. In her light–colored pupils, after shedding the sadness of the past, there was only entere clarity and reason,
“Bernard, I know you don’t want to hear it, but since you asked me, I still have to make it der to your
The man slightly raised his chin, a pair of dark red, exhausted eyes quietly staring at her
“Eleanor, go ahead, I’m listening.”
No matter what she said, he would accept it, even if it meant giving his life for her
After taking a deep breath, Eleanor slowly began,
“You just said that the restaurant isn’t a romantic one, but a regular one. I was fooled by Teresa because I couldn’t read French if could, there would have been fewer conflicts between us.
Also, the glass you mentioned, I don’t even know what it is, let alone heard of it. Even horse riding, I can’t do it. Basically, I can’t do anything you can.
I’m not very knowledgeable, and I don’t have a photographic memory. Even if I start making up for my shortcomings now, there’s still a huge gap between us, like the distance of a galaxy,

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...
