Bernard stared at Eleanor for a while before saying, “Eleanor, I’ve never cared about your background. All I love is you, no matter who you are or what people think. You’re enough for me.”
Because of this, he never thought too much about these issues and never realized that deep down inside Eleanor, there was always a standard.
This standard was always measuring the gap between them, but for him, these were never obstacles.
He touched Eleanor’s cheek and said affectionately, “What’s mine is yours. If you’re willing, I can give you everything right now.”
Eleanor just smiled at him without saying much.
He could give her everything, but not the spiritual wealth she needed.
This kind of wealth related to cognition could only be owned by oneself, and Bernard couldn’t understand that.
Seeing the smile on her lips, the man felt a little helpless and suddenly embraced her, flipping her over and pressing her onto the sofa,
“Eleanor, I’ll give you enough
ty and confidence in the future. These things won’t be obstacles.”
Eleanor looked up at the stubborn
“What about children?”
and
tinate man on top of her and sighed deeply,
Bernard’s body stiffened, and his determined eyes suddenly showed a hint of panic,
“You…”
Eleanor slowly shifted her gaze to her flat belly,
“I heard what you said to me in the hospital that day.
The doctor said I’ve taken too many contraceptives and it’ll be difficult for me to get pregnant.”
Bernard’s already pale face turned even paler.
He let go of Eleanor and sat up, collapsing onto the sofa with extreme exhaustion.
Watching the proud man let go of his arrogance and stare blankly at the ceiling, Eleanor sighed again, “You’re the head of the Laurence family, and you definitely need children for inheritance, but I can’t get pregnant.”
Bernard thought she was blaming him, but when he heard her worrying about him, the panic in his eyes faded. He reached out again and pulled her into his arms.
He hugged Eleanor tightly and whispered in her ear, “Eleanor, the Laurence family has many descendants. We don’t need my children for inheritance. Don’t worry about these things. Leave everything to me.”
Sitting on his lap, Eleanor looked at him and asked, “What about you? Do you want children?”
Bernard answered without hesitation, “No, I only want you.”
Eleanor lowered her head, looking outside the window at the bright sun, which couldn’t shine into her heart.
After staring at the blue sky and white clouds for a while, she gently said, “But I want to. Can you make up for it?”
The man holding her stiffened completely, his blood turning ice cold.
Seeing his silence, Eleanor gradually looked back at the speechless man,
“Bernard, I don’t feel secure, I’m not equal to your status, and I can’t have children. These are my obstacles.

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...
