A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577
Eleanor scooped up a frightened, sobbing Nina, who was too scared to make a noise and handed her over to George
“Bernard, can I have a few words with Ethan first?”
Bernard hesitated, not wanting Eleanor to talk to Ethan, but obediently lowered his gun
Eleanor tried to approach Ethan, but Bernard grabbed her by the wrist, pulling her back. “Talk from here”
Eleanor glanced at Bernard, who was behaving oddly, then turned to Ethan, who was nursing a drink at the bar.
“Ethan, you said what you saw was real, but have you thought about it? Emilia has been chasing you for ten years; she loves you so much. How could she betray you so easily? There must be some misunderstanding I want you to look into it again”
Eleanor glanced back at Nina, who was sobbing in George’s arms. Also, I always thought Nina was your and Emilia’s child.”
Ethan’s hand froze around his drink, then he scoffed. The paternity test says we’re not related at all”
He had doubled it, but the result came from George, a renowned doctor. Surely he couldn’t be wrong?
Eleanor was taken aback by the revelation of the paternity test, and then she voiced her disbelief “Haven’t you noticed that Nina looks a bit like you and Emilia?”
Ethan stiffened, slowly raising his eyes to look at Nina.
Did she?
If she did, why couldn’t he see 1?
Ethan lifted his drink, draining it in one gulp, then laughed mockingly. “Don’t try to restore Emilia’s reputation at my expense.”
With that said, he slammed his glass down, stood up, extended his hand to Bernard, and laughed carelessly.
“Come on, Mr. Laurence, if you want revenge, just get on with it. Stop wasting time.”
His nonchalant attitude earned him a flicker of admiration from Bernard.
Bernard had experienced misunderstandings, probing, distrust, mutual hurt, and life-or-death separation. Now he agreed with Eleanor
Emilia, who had been chasing him for ten years, wouldn’t easily betray the man she had tried so hard to win over. And Nina did look like Ethan.
Bernard looked up; his indifferent eyes seemed to pierce Ethan. He ruthlessly exposed Ethan’s deepest fear. “You’ve hurt Emilia deeply, so you lack the courage to investigate again.”
Ethan’s face turned pale What’s there to investigate? Betrayal is betrayal No need to look into it again!”
Bernard held Eleanor’s hand tightly, pressing it firmly into his palm. If I’m not wrong, you’re afraid that the results of a new investigation will be different from what you found before. That’s why you dare not look into it again.”
Ethan, whose thoughts had been exposed, suddenly became angry. “Bernard, what the hell do you want? If you want to kill me, just do it. Why talk so much?!*
While Bernard didn’t care about Ethan’s life or death, he had to consider Eleanor’s sister Emilia and the child.
You have two choices: either go to jail or find out the truth. Clear Emilia’s name You choose!*
