Chapter 495
After Bernard hung up the phone, Caleb, who was disguised, opened the car door and got in.
“Sir, I’ve looked into the cause of the young master’s death.”
Bernard put down his phone, looking tired, and nodded for Caleb to continue
“The young master indeed died from overwork, which led to a sudden brain disease. I’ve thoroughly investigated the doctors, nurses, who took care of the young master, and everyone who had been in contact with him, including the drugs he used. Everything checks out, no discrepancies.”
Bernard slightly furrowed his brows, his pale expression carrying a hint of coldness, “You mean Sophie Ratliff is lying?”
Caleb quickly concluded, “Ms. Ratliff probably lied about the young master’s cause of death to protect herself.”
Bernard recalled the past events and felt a headache coming, with no energy to delve deeper, he just waved at Caleb.
As Caleb was getting out of the car, he looked like he remembered something and asked, “Mr. Laurence, wasn’t there no autopsy done on the young master back then?”
Bernard rubbed his temples and nodded. To preserve their brother’s dignity, both the Laurence family and the Stanley family didn’t do an autopsy. Caleb’s hand on the car door tightened. Without an autopsy, the doctors could only determine the cause of death based on the previous symptoms.
There was too much room for manipulation in this. Perhaps there was indeed some hidden truth behind the young master’s death.
Caleb looked at Mr. Law’s tired face, thought for a while, but still didn’t tell him this baseless guess.
Instead of worrying him, it was better to investigate further, and then find him when he had solid evidence.
After Caleb left, Aidyn, who was waiting nearby, quickly got into the car, “Mr. Laurence, is the inspection report out?”
Bernard, who just dealt with Caleb, impatiently threw the report at Aidyn, “See for yourself.”
Aidyn carefully reviewed the report several times before finally relaxing, “Good, everything’s fine.”
Bernard glanced at him and couldn’t help but smile when he saw the usually unsmiling Aidyn grinning.
“Is Robin’s matter taken care of?”
“It’s done.”
In W City, Robin stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling windows, listening to his assistant’s report with an agitated expression: “Young Master, we found Bernard’s woman, Eleanor. She’s just an orphan with no background.”
“An orphan?”
Robin raised his eyebrows, looking impatiently at his assistant, “Did you check her relationship with Emilia?”
The assistant didn’t dare to waste any time and quickly replied, “I did, and they have no connection whatsoever.”
Robin angrily smashed the wine glass in his hand, “Then why do they look so alike?!”
The shattered glass hit the assistant’s leather shoes, but he didn’t dare to move, “Could it be that they’re the child of that man and his mistress?”

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...
