Chapter 744
Caleb was just about to get up to explain when he saw Bernard slarn his plate onto the table-“You two finish the meall cooked or else—-
“There’s no need to say or else, Ill eat it, I’ll eat it right now!
Caleb quickly made his stance clear before Bernard could finish his sentence
Eleanor, who was already full grinned at Bernard
“Darling
“Calling me darling wont help.”
Eleanor had to shut up, looking at Caleb helplessly
Then, they each picked up their plates, placed them in front of them, and began to eat with full attention.
Caleb took a bite and nearly spat it out, but under the icy gaze of the man beside him, he forced it down.
The moment he swallowed, Caleb’s handsome face changed it’s really awful, too awful, can someone save him?
Bernard slightly bent over, his fingers on the table, “Is it good?”
Caleb struggled to swallow the food in his mouth and gave him a thumbs up. It’s good, really good.”
Bernard slightly raised the corners of his mouth, smiling. “Great, from now on, I’ll cook your dinner.”
He needed a guinea pig, so his dishes could improve with each attempt.
Upon hearing that Bernard would cook his dinner, Caleb dropped his fork and knife, ran to the railing, and sat down.
If you’re going to cook my dinner, I jump from here!”
Bernard stood straight, crossed his arms, looking at him haughtily
“But didnt you say it was good?”
“It’s not good, it’s too bad, even a dog wouldn’t eat it!”
Eleanor looked up at him.
Bernard didn’t care, waved his hand, signaling Caleb to jump.
Jump then. After you’re fished out, Ill have someone open up your stomach and pour the rest of the food in”
Without hesitation, he jumped off the railing, went back to the table, and continued to eat.
Eleanor glanced at Caleb, then at Bernard, and asked, “Where are we going on our next trip?”
Bernard raised his hand and gently ruffled her hair Wherever you want to go, well go
Eleanor pointed in the direction behind him. There’s an island over there, how about we go there?”
She thought Bernard would turn around, then she could dump that dish into the trash can, but Bernard didn’t move
He even pulled up a chair, sat between them, like a personal surveillance camera, always watching them.
Bernard leaned back in his chair, legs casually crossed, fingers tapping lightly on the table
The setting sun shone on him, making him lock tike a god bathed in golden light, very captivating, just a bit stingy
Eleanor shot him a glare, then shoved a spoonful of food into her mouth, it was just an overly salty crab dish, no big deal
Bernard watched her puff out her cheeks, looking angry as she chewed, a slight smile appearing at the corners of his mouth, showing a trace of indulgence
He reached out and grabbed the spoon from her hand if it’s not good, don’t eat it ”

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...
