Chapter 503
Eleanor couldn’t sleep well all night. It was probably because she found out about Liana’s scary past. When she woke up in the morning, she still felt a bit surprised.
She picked up her phone and saw the time. Bernard usually would have called her by now, but not today
Feeling a little uneasy, she put her finger on the dial key and mustered up the courage to call, but he didn’t pick up.
Eleanor got out of bed and walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window. She became lost in thought as she looked at the rising sun outside.
She visited Liana at the hospital with Hailey, finished her classes at the training centre, and completed her design sketches in the study. She then realized Bernard hadn’t called.
She lay in bed, clutching her phone, staring at their chat. An hour went by, it turned into a whole night, but he never called.
It was nearing dawn, she finally succumbed to sleep and had a strange dream.
She couldn’t remember the scene in her dream. She only recalled that Bernard walked past her with a stern look.
She chased after him, grabbing his sleeve, red-eyed, and apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it.”
He stopped, didn’t look back at her, but pushed her hand away and said, “Eleanor, I’ve really tried my best. I’ve given my life for you. I don’t have the energy to chase you anymore. Let’s just end it here.”
She stood there, watching him get into the car and leave. She suddenly broke down, covering her face and squatted on the ground, crying.
Eleanor woke up from the dream, pressed her aching chest, and sat up in bed. She took a long time to recover
Far away in W City, Bernard had just woken up from treatment. He panicked when he saw the time on the hospital wall clock.
He opened his phone with trembling hands, and saw that Eleanor had tried to video call him. He quickly got out of bed and hurried out of the hospital.
He got into the car, tidied up his messy hair and then called Eleanor.
Eleanor sat in a daze at the head of the bed. Her panic gradually went away when she saw Bernard’s incoming call.
She picked up the call and before she could speak, Bernard’s anxious voice came through.
“Eleanor, I’m sorry, I was in a closed-door meeting for a day and a night. I didn’t call you on time. It’s my fault. I….
Eleanor interrupted him, “When are you coming back?”
Bernard clenched his phone and asked her, “Do you miss me?”
Eleanor didn’t avoid it this time, and firmly said, “Yes.”
The man on the other end of the video was taken aback; he couldn’t believe she missed him.
A warm feeling spread from his heart, “I’ll be back today”
Eleanor looked at the video and nodded slightly. “Do you want me to pick you up at the airport?”
Bernard smiled slowly and said, “Wait for me at home.”
He took a private jet from W City to A City, it was close to midnight.
Eleanor almost drifted off to sleep when the doorbell rang outside the villa.
She went out in a thin coat to open the door, and before she could look up, her petite body fell into a sturdy embrace.
The man picked her up, pinned her against the villa door, and kissed her lips, savoring her sweet aroma.
His faint cedar scent gave Beanor’s empty heart a sense of security.
She took the initiative to wrap her arms around Bernard’s waist and looked up to respond to him.
Her dream from the other night told her that she would break down if Bernard left.
Bernard felt the woman’s emotional changes in his arms, his desire suddenly erupted.
“Eleanor, come home with me.”
Eleanor didn’t respond but leaned against his chest.
The tall man picked her up and put her in the car, quickly starting the car and driving to the mansion.
Bernard parked the car in front of the mansion, picked her up again and quickly walked into the mansion.
Bryson and the s***ts saw him carrying Eleanor and discreetly stepped aside, not disturbing them.
Bernard carried Eleanor straight to the master bedroom on the second floor, and without turning on the light, he pressed her against the wall and kissed her deeply.
His slender fingers tore open her clothes, pinching her delicate waist, and pressed her close to his abs, making him even crazier
“Wait, wait a second….”
“Hmm?”
The man raised his lust-filled eyes. They were bloodshot and overwhelmed with desire, “Don’t you want to try it?”
Eleanor touched Bernard’s thick hair and blushed, lowering her head, “I, I haven’t taken a bath yet.”
With a free hand, he lifted Eleanor’s slender legs, letting her tightly wrap around his waist, and carried her into the bathroom.
“I’ll help you wash.”
In the s***s bathroom, Eleanor was pressed against the bathtub, feeling each wave of the man’s thrusts.
She clung to his back, and gently kissed his forehead. The light cast in from the window.
“Bernard, don’t let me down again.”

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...
