Chapter 461
A confident, arrogant, and provocative smile appeared on Sophie’s face.
This guy who was always looking down on others didn’t hesitate for long before returning to his cold and ruthless self,
“Take care of her.”
Sophie thought that when she taunted him with the reason for her brother’s death, he would come to her and ask for details
But who would have thought that he would just be slightly surprised and then ordered someone to deal with her again? Didn’t he care
about his brother at all?
Sophie couldn’t believe it, nor could she accept it. She stared at the man who had always been emotionally cold but still made her heart flutter,
“Don’t you want to know the truth about your brother’s death?!”
Bernard slowly took off his gloves, looking coldly at Sophie kneeling on the ground,
“Even if you don’t tell me, I can find out.”
In other words, whether she was the only one who knew the truth or just talking nonsense, it didn’t matter to him.
His goal now was to get rid of her and eliminate any future troubles. As for the rest, there was nothing Bemard couldn’t find out!
Sophie had known Bernard for his decisive and ruthless actions, leaving no room for mercy.
But only after experiencing it firsthand, Sophie truly realized how terrifying this man could be.
However, she said,
“Bernard, there are things you can’t find out. The forgotten past was something only I know!”
The man standing at the bottom of the stairs seemed already tired of dealing with her, directly looking away and turning to leave.
Seeing his resolute back, Sophie clenched her fists in anger, her resentment deeper than ever.
She yelled, “Bernard! Your brother loves me so much. If he finds out you treat me like this, how will you face him in the future? You also promised him that you would marry me and take care of me. Are you going to break these commitments?”
Upon hearing this, Berard chuckled coldly and said, “He’s always been taking care of you even until his death, and yet you deceive his feelings. Do you think you deserve his love?”
He turned his profile, his expression cold, and said, “You better think about how you’re going to face him when you meet him later!
The man, after saying this sentence, did not turn back and left the basement directly.
Sophie trembled all over, her eyes widened as she stared fixedly at the deeply engraved figure in her memory.
But as soon as she glanced, a person immediately placed a cotton linen bag over her head. The invading darkness made her scream in terror, “Ah – Bernard, don’t forget, my father is still alive. If he finds out how you’ve treated me, he will definitely seek revenge against you!”
But the man had already left the basement, completely blocking out her cries, apparently not caring about her fate.
When he came out, he handed his black gloves to Caleb. The sun outside was still shining brightly, casting light on him without any warmth.
He looked at the swaying trees, raising his chin slightly to reveal a smooth jawline. His eyes were lost in thoughts of the past.
At the age of five, a little boy in a uniform knelt on cobblestones, enduring one hit after another.
In his home, all the adults watched without helping him, allowing him to be beaten until he was covered in bruises.
Only his brother rushed out, using his thin body to shield him, shouting at the woman,
“Mom, don’t hit my brother. It wasn’t him who broke the vase, it was me. If you want to hit someone, hit me.”
The little boy looked up at his brother, who was taller than him, his eyes full of shock.
He didn’t expect this brother, who had just returned from abroad, to stand up and protect him.
What shocked him even more was that the woman spared him because of his brother’s plea.
This was something he didn’t expect, and he stared at his brother.
“Let me see your injuries.”
The little boy’s brother squatted down, carefully lifting the bloodstained clothes on his body.

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...
