A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 507

Chapter 507
Halley shook her head firmly, “I never forget how you humiliated me in those three days Just go
With that, Hailey got up and walked upstairs without even looking back. She seemed indifferent to Cedric
Cedric watched her figure walk away, his heart felt like it was being squeezed by something It was a bit sour and a little painful
Taking advantage of his drunkenness, his injuries, and being in her house, he could have said some inappropriate things without any hesitation.
But for some reason, he just couldn’t bring himself to say, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have treated you like that.”
After dinner at the Laurence Manor, Bernard led Eleanor to the backyard garden.
What was once a garden full of blooming flowers was now filled with roses, their fragrance filling the air.
Eleanor sniffed the flowers, looking at the endless sea of pink. The garden was wrapped in starlight and streetlights, but her expression stiffened
The flawless man beside her gently ruffled her hair, Tant this better than a text message?”
Upon hearing this. Eleanor suddenly felt the romantic atmosphere ruined, “So you were just teasing me on purpose?”
Bernard smiled faintly, raising his slender fingers and waving to the s***t behind him, “Scissors”
The s*t qui*ckly brought scissors. Bernard took them, walked into the flower bushes, and cut eleven roses.
After carefully removing the thorns, he held the flowers in both hands and handed them to Eleanor, “Eleanor, I haven’t given you flowers today.”
As Eleanor took the bouquet, she heard him say, “Eleven, for a lifetime.”
Eleanor bent down to him. He was now a head shorter than her, Where did you learn this from?”
Bernard’s eyes revealed a guilty smile, but he didn’t answer her. Instead, he lifted her from the steps she was standing on.
He carried Eleanor through the flowers, step by step, to the small courtyard in the center of the garden.
After placing her on a lounge chair, Bernard knelt on one knee in front of her, gazing at her affectionately,
“Eleanor, what does your dream proposal look like?”
Eleanor stared blankly at the man in front of her, stunned, ‘Proposal?”
Bernard raised his chin and nodded seriously, “I want to marry you.”
There were no fancy words, just a few simple ones, but they made Eleanor so emotional.
She had been waiting for Bernard’s “I want to marry you” for many years
Now, he was kneeling humbly in front of her, even asking her for an opinion on the proposal ceremony.
Looking into his sincere eyes, Eleanor finally asked Bernard, “I’ve been divorced, and I might not be able to have children. We also have different social statuses. Do you still want to marry me?’
Bernard raised both hands, caressing her face and firmly said, “Yes.”
He had wanted to marry her for many years now.
Eleanor’s heart trembled slightly, her hands gripped her skirt tightly, nervously rubbing it….
Seeing her unresponsive, Bernard’s expression changed to panic, “Eleanor, tell me, what’s your answer?”
