A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 667

Chapter 667 

Pearce Hooper rushed to learn about the situation, and Ethan’s body was frozen hard. He stood in the morgue, staring in disbelief at Ethan’s figure, now covered by a white cloth Unlike the scene Eleanor had witnessed, Ethan had been cleaned up and dressed in fresh clothes 

He lay there, as if he were just sleeping calm as ever, with no signs of death. 

Taking tentative steps, Pearce moved closer, reaching out a hand to touch Ethan’s lace, only to find he didn’t have the guts 

“Master.” he whispered Normally, if he disturbed his masters sleep, he’d get a good scolding. But now, Ethan lay there quietly, unresponsive to his call 

Tears welled up in Pearce’s eyes “Master what happened? We still had a deal didn’t we?” 

Ethan had once patted Pearce’s shoulder, promising. “When you have more trophies than me, I build you a golden house” 

Knowing Pearce’s love for gold, his master would occasionally buy him small gold trinkets to put in his vault 

Even though they were gifts for him, his master would always joke about reclaiming the vault when he ran out of money 

His master wasn’t exactly a saint, nor was he thoroughly wicked. But he was, in a way, a pitiful man 

He never seemed to express himself right often saying the opposite of what he meant, which made a lot of people dislike him) 

Only Pearce saw the loneliness in his master Sometimes, seeing him lost in thought in his office, he felt pity for him. 

At times like this. Pearce would try his best to crack a joke to make his master smile. 

His jokes were never funny, but his master would always respond with a faint smile and a casual rebuke, “Pearce, get lost!” 

Now, looking at Ethan’s frozen body, Pearce cried, “Master, why aren’t you scolding me?” 

What was meant as a joke sounded so heartbreaking to George….. 

His two frends were both gone 

He knew he’d always known, that Ethan had been ready to leave ever since Emilia passed 

For Ethan, death might be the best release 

But those left behind had to live with the grief and longing forever 

George’s tears had long since dried up, leaving his face void of any expression, while Pearce’s pain had just begun. 

Pearce had been orphaned since childhood It was Ethan and Emilia who had supported him 

When he was in high school, he used to draw on the streets of G country for money One day, Ethan and Emilia walked by holding hands. 

They stopped and stood behind him, silently observing his drawing for a long while 

Pearce became irritated. They neither bought his paintings nor left. In annoyance, he turned around and said, “What are you looking at? Careful, or Пl pluck your eyeballs out and stick them on my canvas!” 

Emilia burst into laughter, while Ethan gave him a nonchalant look, “Your paintings are not impressive, but your words are certainly unique” 

Having grown up on the streets, Pearce was naturally impertinent and strong 

He was about to start a fight with Ethan, but Ethan grabbed him by the collar before he could throw a punch. 

He admitted Ethan was taller That was why he was being picked on, not because he was weak. 

Emilia stopped Ethan from disciplining him, saying that he was just a child, and told Ethan not to care about him 

Emilia bought all his paintings, and Ethan proudly handed him a business card.
