A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 543

Chapter 543
When Bernard opened his eyes again, it was already the next day Seeing the Laurences crammed in his hospital room, he slightly furrowed his brows, looking a bit imitated
The Laurences knew he liked peace and quiet, so they didn’t make a fuss and just stood silently However, their silence made it feel like a family meeting was about to start
Sitting in front of the bed was a man nearly seventy-five, dressed in a suit. His hair was white but his face was still youthful. This nimble old man, with his straight back, stared at Bernard’s pale, thin face
He gripped his cane tightly and said deeply “Bernard, you’ve had it tough.”
His voice was deep and powerful, and he exuded a strong aura, something that was innate to the Laurences A trait that came from holding high positions for a long time, something no
one could easily mimic
Bernard nodded lightly and didn’t say much.
Old Mr. Laurence seemed to feel the distance between them. He became more and more uncomfortable and awkward sitting there. When Bernard was a child, he had silently allowed Donna’s actions and hadnt firmly stood up for his grandson.
He had always emphasized on grooming Bernard but they weren’t close. As an adult, Bernard seldom returned to the old house to visit him.
Old Mr. Laurence knew of Bernard’s resentment towards him, so he didn’t stay for long. After giving a few instructions, he got up and left.
As the Laurences followed Old Mr. Laurence out of the hospital room, Bernard looked at Cedric who was left behind
“Did she come?”
Cedric and Aldyn looked at each other, then he lowered his head and said, ‘Eleanor came. After you fell asleep last night, Hailey and she came to see you. But Haley wasn’t feeling well, so Eleanor left with her
Bernard’s frown deepened, “Cedric, when you lie, your eyes unnaturally look down.”
Cedric opened his mouth to argue, but Bernard angrily cut him off. “Did something happen to her?”
Cedric hung his head, trying not to answer. Bernard’s cold gaze swept over to Aidyn. He saw Aidyn also lowering his head, and instantly got angry.
“Speak!”
Bernard snapped, his body shaking, whether from his ill health or worry for Eleanor, he didn’t know. Anyway, the panic clogged his chest, making him feel suffocated, as if someone was clutching his throat and making it hard to breathe.
Cedric had to spill the beans, Eleanor has been missing for two months. I’ve had people looking everywhere, but we haven’t found her yet, we don’t even know where she went.”
Hearing that Eleanor had been missing for two months, Bernard suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood
“Bernard” “Mr. Laurence!
Cedric and Aidyn turned pale with fright, rushing over. One checked his body while the other rang the bell urgently.
The previously immobile Bernard, ignored his bleeding and stubbornly pushed Cedric away. He threw off the blankets, and tried to get up from the hospital bed
He grabbed the edge of the bed, intending to find Eleanor himself, but his legs gave out, and he fell to the floor.
After being in a coma for two months, his body was stimulated and revived by medication, high-pressure oxygen, acupuncture, and other methods. He couldn’t start moving immediately
However, Bernard still refused to give up, he struggled to get up from the floor again and again..
Cedric and Aidyn wanted to help him up, but were scared still by his icy gaze
“Mr. Laurence, I’m sorry. I made the decision myself. I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to handle the news just after waking up, so I kept it from you.”
After apologizing. Aidyn knelt dowp in front of Bernard, forcibly picked him up, and put him back on the bed.
“Mr. Laurence, your body isnt ready for movement yet. Wait until you’re fully recovered to find Eleanor. Otherwise, if you force yourself to get up now, you’ll hurt your muscles and bones. Eleanor would be heartbroken if you ended up disabled.”
The words “Eleanor would be heartbroken calmed Bernard’s anger. He clenched his fists and glared coldly at Aidyn..
The man who took her is Ethan Ziegler, you guys go to the G country immediately and bring her back. Also…..
When Bernard paused, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, “Bring Ethan to me
He had thought that Ethan came to rescue Eleanor, he didn’t expect Ethan would be the one to take Eleanor away!
If he had known Ethan’s intentions earlier, he would have fought to the death, and he wouldn’t have let Eleanor go with Ethan!
Thinking about Eleanor being taken away for two months, it filled Bernard’s heart with hatred.
Ethan, you took my woman, I’ll let you have a taste of what true pain is!
