Chapter 603
She initially thought Bernard was just dropping her off at Hailey’s villa and then head off to the Lawrence Group To her surprise, he followed her into the villa
Seeing Bernard, her nanny Marina was over the moon She welcomed him into the living room as if he were her own son in law
“Mr. Laurence, please make yourself at home 11 whip up some coffee for you
Marina cast a glance at Bernard before encouraging Eleanor with a thumbs–up and a look that said “You go, girl
Eleanor rubbed her forehead slightly and walked over to Bernard, “Bernard Thave a gift for you, let me fetch It.”
Bernard lounged on the sofa with his legs crossed elegantly He broke into a smile upon hearing about the gift, “Sure”
As Eleanor headed to the study. Bernard dialed Haley, who was working at a nightclub.
Just as he hung up, Eleanor rushed out from the study, “Marina, have you seen my blueprint that was in the study?”
Marina, who was brewing coffee in the kitchen, poked her head out to answer, “Didn’t Mr. Laurence take that blueprint?”
Eleanor turned to Bernard on the sofa, “You took my design for the Jared Group Headquarters?”
Bernard then realized that the gift she wanted to give him was the blueprint, “Yes, I took it and have already started using it for development”
Eleanor paused for a second, then recalled the news about the reconstruction of Jared Group Headquarters and finally pieced it together. “You were still mad at me back then, why would you use my design?”
Bernard casually pulled her into his arms, 1 promised to use your design and to submit it to the competition. I always keep my word, regardless of the circumstances”
Helping her succeed in the architecture field mattered more to him than his personal feelings
Eleanor felt a lump in her throat and buried her head into his chest, whispering, Bernard, you’re too kind…..
A smile flashed in Bernards eyes as he patted her back gently, I forgot to tell you, your design made it through the first round and is currently being re–evaluated I’m sure you’ll hear about
it scon
Eleanor was still overwhelmed with gratitude and instantly felt a surge of anxiety hearing this, “Is it for that international architecture competition?”
He nodded and Eleanor began to panic, 1 can’t do this, I have no experience. If I make it to the finals, I’d have to present my design concept on stage….*
She always got nervous on stage. She would always be unable to speak, let alone at such a grand event like the international architecture competition. All the participants were renowned architects What if she made a fool of herself?
Bernard let go of her waist, pinching her smooth cheek, What’s there to fear when I’m here?”

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...
