A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 636

Chapter 636 

Eleanor didn’t expect him to spill so much tea about the past He wasn’t really talking about missing her sister, but more so blaming herself. 

Eleanor took a good look at Casey He seemed chill on the surface, but he was actually more of a tough nut to crack than Ethan She couldn’t read Casey’s mind and didn’t feel like answering his questions. Instead, she flipped the script and asked him “If my sister only had eyes for Ethan, why did she choose you? And why did Ethan end up in ja?” 

Casey didn’t expect Eleanor to back up Ethan like that His eyes fumed on a dime and became guarded “Sorry, I can’t tell you” 

Eleanor’s forehead wrinkled “Why?” 

Casey put down his coffee clasped his hands together and said seriously “You’re on Ethan’s side, so sorry” 

He got up and started to head for the door Eleanor quickly called out to him “Mr. Casey, hold on a sec” 

Casey stopped in his tracks and turned back to Eleanor, his eyes back in alert mode: “What else do you need, Ms. Shultz?” 

Eleanor walked up to him, looking up at Casey who was a head taller than her and explained: “I’m not on Ethan’s side I’m just in the dark about my sister’s business, so I don’t know who to trust” 

Ethan said Emilia chased after him for a decade, Casey said Emilia only had eyes for Ethan, but Emilia ended up choosing Casey. It left Eleanor a bit bamboozled. She felt a woman who spent ten years chasing after the love of her life wouldn’t just change her heart like that, unless Ethan hurt Emilia before this. She didn’t know the full story, so she wouldn’t just take anyone’s word at face value 

Hearing her explanation, Casey’s eyes softened “Ms Shultz, your sister chose me because Ethan betrayed her first 

Eleanor was totally gobsmacked Wasn’t it Emilia who betrayed Ethan first? Now it’s Ethan who betrayed Emilia first? Who should she believe. Casey or Ethan? 

Seeing her confusion, Casey, ever the gentleman, explained. “Your sister often saw Ethan getting cozy with other women when she was chasing after him. She loved Ethan so she chose to bear it. However, Ethan kept up his old ways even after they got together, leaving her alone at home while he was out painting the town red with other women‘ 

Casey finished speaking, and gave a helpless smile “Emilia was with Ethan for six years, and he kept hurting her like this. Any woman would get fed up, don’t you think so, Ms. Shultz?” 

Eleanor had no comeback to Casey’s words. But Ethan seemed to love her sister so much, could he really be the kind of person Casey described? 

Just as Eleanor was trying to dig deeper into who Nina’s parent was, Casey suddenly glanced at his wristwatch. “Ms. Shultz” 

Casey moved his gaze from his watch, looked at Eleanor and took a business card out of his suit pocket and handed it to her. “Thave some urgent matters to deal with today. If you know where Nina is, could you give me a call, thanks” 

Eleanor took the card and nodded at Casey, who then turned and left. 

As soon as Casey left, Pearce, who had been munching on an apple in the restaurant, waved at Eleanor, “Over here” 

Putting away her thoughtful look, Eleanor turned to Pearce, who was tossing his apple core into the trash bin, “What’s up?” 

T 

Pearce, legs crossed, with an air of I know it all, said, “Come here, Пl tell you the truth.” 

Considering Pearce was Ethan’s apprentice and Emilia’s employee, she thought he might know something, so she walked over 

“Spill it‘ 

“Bend down”
