Chapter 567
Bernard had just sat down with Eleanor at the restaurant when a Rolls Royce pulled up outside the mansion.
Cedric stepped out of the car wrapped in a navy blue coat, and with a steady strade, quickly walked into the villa
He handed his coat to a s***t, brushed the s***s off his hair, then asked, “Where’s my brother?”
The s*****t cautiously pointed towards the dining room, saying. Mr. Laurence is having dinner”
Following the direction of the s**t, Cedric looked towards the dining room His face immediately sank when he saw the woman in his brother’s arms
He quickly walked up to them and pointed at Eleanor, saying. How dare you show your face to my brother?”
Before Eleanor could respond, the man holding her suddenly lifted his eyes and coldly glared at Cedric, “Do you not want your fingers anymore?”
Only then did Cedric realize his overreaction. He quickly withdrew his finger and, facing Bernard’s cold gaze, puzzledly asked, “After what she did to you, why are you still with her?”
Three months ago, Bernard was carried back home, unconscious for several days. Even after he woke up, he was so heartbroken that he vomited blood frequently. If not for their grandfather bringing in the world’s best doctors, he would have been a goner.
His brother nearly lost his life multiple times for this woman. But what about her?
She had an affair with Ethan and even did that in front of him!
Yet Bernard protected her reputation and kept it all a secret.
If he hadnt overheard Aidyn at the hospital, he would still be in the dark.
Cedric’s gaze at Bernard was full of incomprehension.
“Aren’t you a clean freak? How could you?”
He was about to say how Bernard could accept a tainted woman when he was startled by a loud clang.
The soup spoon slammed onto the glass bowl, causing Cedric to swallow his words instantly
“Apologize!”
The handsome man at the head of the table stared at him indifferently
Cedric’s eyebrows furrowed His brother seldom treated him so coldly
Well, resigned to his bad luck, Cedric glanced at Eleanor, turned his head, and muttered a reluctant, Sorry..
His apology was for pointing rudely earlier, not for what he had said He didn’t think he was wrong
Bernard saw the defiance in Cedric’s eyes, lifted his chin, and looked down at him, saying. “Your attitude is inappropriate Apologize again.”
Inappropriate attitude?!
It was Bernard who was blinded by beauty!
Cedric’s handsome face was twisted in anger. He wished he could c***ck open his brother’s head to see what was going on inside
Seeing Cedric grinding his teeth, Eleanor quickly tugged at Bernard’s sleeve and softly said, “Let it go, he doesn’t know the whole story.”
But Bernard didn’t let Cedric off. He leaned back in his golden dining chair and coldly said, “Cedric, listen well. No matter the circumstances, you cannot be impolite to your sister-in-law, nor can you doubt her if I find out you’re treating her like you did today, don’t blame me for disowning you as my brother.”
Look at that, his brother, whom he had admired since childhood! He would treat his brother like this for a woman who betrayed him.
Cedric felt all their years of brotherhood were wasted. Just as he felt heartbroken, Bernard coldly lifted his hand and waved.
“Get out”
Don’t stay here, disturbing him by feeding Eleanor the tonic.

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...
