Chapter 530
Eleanor woke up from a droway sleep. She opened her eyes to find herself in a vaguely familiar place
The grand chandelier, the French décor.
This was
G country!
Ethan and Emilia’s villa!
Eleanor was shocked. She tried to force herself out of the bed despite her exhaustion But, her body was too weak and she fell back down.
She raised her hand to rub her forehead. She tried hard to recall how she ended up in G country, but she had a blank memory
Ethan, sitting in the living room, seemed to hear something from the room and walked in with a cup of water.
Eleanor had her hand on her forehead. She saw Ethan come in and frowned, “Did you drug me?”
She felt groggy and weak, as if she had been drugged.
Ethan replied casually. “Every once in a while, I did slip you some sleeping pills. You slept pretty well, didn’t you?”
After his admission, he handed her the cup of water, “Why don’t you get some more shut eye?”
Eleanor thought he was beyond helpful, but she didn’t have the energy to argue with him.
She forced herself up from the bed, asking him, “How’s Bernard?”
She remembered going back to find Bernard and was knocked out by Ethan. Then she woke up! here.
She may have woken up from time to time, but because he kept drugging her, she couldn’t remember anything and had no idea how much time had passed
She was worried sick. She wanted to be back by Bernard’s side, to check on his wounds, to take care of him herself, and to be there for him.
Ethan put down his cup and sat on a single sofa, resting his chin on his hand and said, “He’s dead.”
Dead?
Eleanor turned pale, “What are you saying?”
Ethan watched her reaction, raising an eyebrow, “You heard me clearly. Why ask again?”
Eleanor was in disbelief….
She stared at Ethan
Suddenly, she screamed at Ethan, Do you even know what you’re saying?”
He had promised to marry her. How could he be dead?
Eleanor gathered all her strength, picked up a pillow from the bed and hurled it at Ethan.
“You har! You’re tricking me!”
He wouldn’t just leave her!
He hadn’t heard her say I love you, nor had he seen her pregnant with his child. How could he be dead!
After a few rounds of a pillow assault, Ethan’s calm expression was gradually replaced by annoyance.
He lifted his hand to grab Eleanor’s wrist and said coldly. “Enough!”
Eleanor was now out of her senses and couldn’t stop. She grabbed a cup from the bedside table and threw it at his head.
Ethan could tolerate the water mixed with sleeping pills splashed on his head, but a cup smashing his forehead made him furious.
His face darkened. He stood up, grabbed Eleanor’s throat with one hand and shoved her onto the bed.
His cold gaze fixed on Eleanor’s pale face, devoid of any emotion. His expression was filled with only possessiveness.
“For the sake of your sister’s heart, I can tolerate this tantrum of yours, but not a second time.”

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...
