Chapter 717
Whenever Eleanor was bullied at school shed for all lost and helpless, not able to keep her emotions in check Garrett would always pop up right about then, sit in front of her and soothe her with comforting words.
Eleanor cherished Garretty kindness and that’s why the memories hit hei hard
“Are you so upset because you still care about me?‘ Garett joked, reaching out in Cleaner
“If you do care, how about you come away with me?” Garrett said, laughing, but his tone was dead serious
He’d thought about letting go, wishing her happiness Put lately, he’s found himself unable to let her go. He just couldn’t ignore his deep feelings
Bemard couldn’t live without Eleanor, and he fet the same So, fieanor, will you come with me?
Eleanor clutched her wedding dress tightly, her eyes welling up as she looked at Garrett
Tm sorry” was at she could muster, apologizing to Garrett
Gamet felt like heid lost big time. His hand was suspended in mid at, feeling the sting of disappointment.
It’s a good thing he said all that in a joking tone Because he knew Eleanor wouldn’t go with him.
He knew the answer, but he wanted to see her reaction anyway.
“Eleanor, I wish you and Bernard all the happiness in the world”
Garrett looked at Eleanor tenderly After this, he wouldn’t have any reason to see her again.
As he was watching her, the sound of helicopters echoed from outside One chopper after another landed on the lawn,
They were decked out with ribbons and balloons Seeing this, Ganett just hung his head.
“Eleanor he’s here to marry you
After saying this, Garrett stepped back, pushing his wheelchair
“Goodbye, Mrs Laurence”
He tumed around, pushing the wheelchair, tears sliding down his cheeks
He thought she’d be his wife But here she was, nine years later, Mrs. Laurence. Talk about a twist of fate
“Ganett Eleanor called him, trying to go to him, but he raised his hand to stop her
“Eleanor just stay there Say whatever you want to say from there
So Eleanor stopped and watched his retreating figure, wishing him well.
“Garrett, I wish you happiness 100”
Gamett had told her he was about to get engaged
Eleanor thought that Garrett would find his true love one day.
“Thanks for your wishes, Mrs. Laurence”
By calling her Mrs. Laurence, he was putting a distance between them, like an uncrossable chasm
Eleanor wiped the tears from her eyes She said nothing, she just turned around and looked out the window.
On the lawn, a line of helicopters stood, and the door of a white one was slowly opening
A man in a custom–made white suit, noble and cold, like a nobleman, stepped out of a painting

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...
