Chapter 516
A City
Aidyn couldn’t reach Liana, so he hustled over to her place, but she was nowhere to be found.
Without a second thought, Aidyn sped off to the hospital
There, he found out from the doctors that Liana had been forcibly taken by Tyler
And to top it off, Tyler had the audacity to hurt Eleanor
Messing with Mr Laurence’s lady? Was he asking for a death wish?
Fuming. Aidyn whipped out his phone to call Bernard
But Bernard was already flying high in his private jet, with his phone switched off
Aidyn had no choice but to download the surveillance footage and send it to Bernard’s phone, then make a beeline for B City to find Liana.
The next morning, as Eleanor was deep in focus, pencil in hand, finalizing the last building on the blueprint, her phohe rang. S
he glanced at the caller ID, and her hand slipped, sending her pencil skidding off the ruler.
There on the screen, the name Ethan Ziegler made her pause before she reached for the phone.
Ethan hadn’t called since he returned to the G country, and now suddenly he was on the line. Was he coming back?
Sure enough, the first words out of Ethan’s mouth were, I’m back.”
His deep voice on the other end of the line made Eleanor freeze up.
She simply murmured a soft “mm–hmm,” not daring to respond or ask why Ethan was back.
Ethan lounged on a U–shaped couch, and casually asked, “Has Robin been looking for you?”
Eleanor had expected Ethan to ask her to fulfill the second agreement, but he asked about Robin instead, which was a relief.
“Yes,’ she replied, then added, “More accurately, he’s looking for Emilia.*
Ethan scoffed at this. When Emilia’s mother had taken her daughters to plead with the Pine family and the Spencer family, how had they responded?
They had kicked the three of them out, leaving them with nowhere to go. They heartlessly declared that whether they lived or died, neither the Spencers nor the Pines would lift a finger to help
And now, for the sake of the old lady of the Pine family, they were looking for Emilia. They were shameless!
Ethan curtly told Eleanor, “Don’t reveal your identity while Robin is sniffing around.”
Eleanor reassured him, “Dont worry, he doesn’t know about my sister’s death, or that I took her place.”
Ethan didn’t respond, his finger idly tapped the glass in his hand. “Bernard’s been helping you evade Robin’s search for Emilia, hasn’t he?*
Eleanor was surprised that Ethan, all the way in the G country, was in the loop about her affairs. “Yes,” she admitted.

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...
