Chapter 710
Eleanora steps suddenly halted
She wanted to throw a few snarky reksits back at him, but was worried about wasting time. So, the ignored him and quickly pushed open the door to the ladies room
Once inside, the scanned the room and spotted a small window Bushing over she shoved it open
Outside was a road t she could get out this way she’d be able to reach the mad and her chances of escaping would increase
Without a second thought, she rolled up her sleeves and began to climb the tall window
Meanwhile, a man sitting on the road with one leg bent and a hand resting on his knee was smoking and watching her window escapade
How odd!
If she wanted to leave she could just walk out the club’s main entrance or through the beach Why bother with the window?
Hey”
He yelled out, starting Eleanor and causing her to fall from the window
She landed hard, the pain making her grit her teeth Luckily, she landed on sand otherwise she’d definitely have broken something
She got up and glared at the smoking man on the road ‘Jerk‘
The man lifted the hand that was resting on his knee, took a puff of his cigarette, blew out a smoke ring, and looked at her. “Why are you climbing walls?”
Eleanor ignored him, and with a hand on her sore waist, she tried to pass through the bushes to get to the road.
Gianna’s voce came from behind-
“Ms Shultz, didn’t I tell you not to try and escape
Hearing Gianna’s voice, Ms Shultz let out a disappointed sigh
The man still sitting on the road flicked the ash off his cigarette, and smirked. “So, you’re Eleanor”
Seeing the man’s gaze on Eleanor, Gianna quickly stepped forward to remind him “Mr Pine, this is Mr. Laurence’s wife”
She didn’t say anything else. The title of wife was enough to deter any ideas he might have about Eleanor
Pine, who originally had no intentions, suddenly had a wicked thought upon hearing Mr. Laurence.
He smirked mischievously. “Oh, Mi Laurence’s wife, you say? Now, I’m even more interested”
Gianna crossed her arms and looked up at the man sitting on the road. “Elbert Pine, don’t say I didn’t warn you You can’t touch her”
Elbert put the cigarette back in his mouth, propped himself up with his hands behind him, and looked up at Eleanor while smiling
His smile held a strange mix of righteousness and wickedness His eyes, however, didn’t reach his smile, making his intentions hard to read.
Eleanor was curious about Elbert’s last name, and wanted to ask about its origin
She remembered her sister’s former last name was the same as his
But seeing the way he was looking at her she figured he was a playboy
If she initiated any conversation, it would probably only feed his ego. So, she decided not to ask and instead turned to Gianna
“Let’s go
She didn’t manage to escape this time, but she’d figure out another way later
At Laurence Manor, Bernard kicked Evan down and pulled out a gun from his waist, aiming straight for his heart.
“Tell Mr. Penrod, if he dares to touch my woman, he’s asking for a fight. Let him think it over”

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...
