Chapter 518
The bodyguards turned white as sheets upon hearing this
What the hell? They were guarding the door the whole time, how could Eleanor have disappeared?
They didnt have time to mull it over. They had to find her, and fast
Bernard planned to send Aidyn and Caleb to find her. He returned to the car to grab his work phone which had been off since the plane landed.
Just as he was about to call them, he noticed Aidyn had sent him a video late last night.
He saw Eleanor in the video, quickly clicked on it, and saw Tyler kicking at her chest.
Bernard was livid Tyler, how dare you lay a hand on my woman? You’re asking for a death wish!
While he plotted how he would deal with Tyler later, he heard Tyler mention Garett
“Did you know, what kind of life Jason has been living these past few months in B City?” This made Bernard stop in his tracks.
He saw Eleanor in the video, lying on the ground, looking dazed and guilty after hearing these words
Bernard froze, his panic was slowly replaced by a suffocating pain.
Eleanor, did you leave Garett without saying a word because you felt guilty?
That was too cruel. She repeatedly abandoned him. How was he supposed to deal with that?
He stumbled and fell against the car door. He had never felt this hopeless, even the time he learned he was sick hadn’t affected him like this.
He weakly raised his head, staring blankly at the mansion she used to stay in
Eleanor, you’re my life. If you have left me, I will be finished. Will you be okay with watching me die?
He lowered his head to look at the woman on the screen, but his gaze accidentally fell on the timestamp
The timing was off. The video of Tyler kicking her was from two nights before, and he had called her just yesterday afternoon.
She was worried about him losing weight, how could she just leave him because Tyler mentioned Garett?
Eleanor had promised she would marry him whether she could have children or not.
She had firmly chosen him, and she would never abandon him again. Something must’ve happened to Eleanor!
As his thoughts became clearer, he rushed into the mansion where Marina had pulled up the security footage.
Bernard took the laptop from her, sat on the couch, and stared intently at the video.
He didn’t miss a beat and noticed a man with a scarred face sneaking into the backyard while the guards were distracted.
The moment he saw that man, he remembered Eleanor telling him about a man with a scarred face asking about Mr. Law.

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...
