Chapter 689
Eleanor didn’t understand how serious the danger was, looking worriedly at Bernard. “Did you bring a doctor?
Bernard nodded soothing her by stroking her hair, then he glanced at Nina in the corner
Nina noticed his gaze quickly lowered her head and began playing with her toy doll
Bernard soon averted his eyes
When he looked away. Nina began to sneak peeks at Bernard out of the comer of her eye
Sitting across from Bernard it only took a quick glance for her to see Bemard’s clear face
He looked handsome, a bit thinner than before but still as charming
His handsomeness was unmatched by any other man, as if he was blessed by angels, the epitome of allure
Nina watched Beard for a while, then handed him the doll, without saying a word, giving him the most important thing
Because when she was locked in a dark room nearly dying, it was this man who kicked open the door.
At that moment, Nina saw the sunlight pouring over him, like the arrival of God. He stepped into her line of sight, wearing military boots and carrying a gun
After freeing her from the cage, he tucked his gun into his waistband, knelt down, and scooped her up into his arms.
As Nina rested her head on his shoulder, she began to cry. “Im so thirsty, so hungry
Just like now, he didn’t say much in response to her crying only lightly patting her back
He seemed naturally aloof, not even responding emotionally to a little girl as cute as Nina
But his comforting pat on her back gave her a sense of security.
Nina felt that no words could be more powerful than this gesture.
Bernard was a man of few words, but he would prove himself through his actions.
Like his love for Eleanor, he might not be good at expressing it, but he would always protect her through his actions.
Nina thought Bernard was very responsible, so she could trust him with the doll left by her mother
Her mother had told her, when she found someone she could trust, give him the doll, he would know what to do.
She trusted Eleanor, but she trusted Eleanor’s husband even more
Bernard glanced at the filthy doll and stiffened, obviously reluctant to accept or touch it
But Nina was locking at him with expectant eyes, as if she wouldn’t take it back if he didn’t accept it.
Bernard coughed lightly, fist to his lips, and Aidyn immediately tried to take the doll from Nina
But before Aidyn’s hand could touch it, Nina pulled the doll back into her arms.
Hmph, forget it, villain! Nina turned away, locking unhappily out of the window, secretly deciding to ignore Bernard from now on!
Bernard felt a bit of a headache and regret, wondering why he had to glance at Nina Now he’d upset the little girl
Hed always hated dirt and disorder, but this time he made an exception, reaching out to lightly touch Nina’s back
“Give it to me
His tone was cold but his voice pleasant, slightly unwilling
Nina could tell he was reluctant, which made her even angrier.
She leaned against the window, refusing to turn around

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...
