A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 748

Chapter 748 

Garett had pretty much seen it coming He knew Eleanor wouldn’t accept anything from him anymore, and that she would send Hailey to return it all. After all, it just didn’t make sense for them to see each other anymore Every time he thought about this, it felt like his heart was being ripped open – the pain was unbearable How did they end up here, two people who were once in love, unable to even face each other? If he knew it was going to end like this, why did they fall in love in the first place? At least he could have stayed by her side as a friend, calling 

her “Eleanor 

Im Indeed here to return the gifts,” Hailey nodded slightly, a little embarrassed. She took out an envelope from her bag and handed it to him 

“Garett, Eleanor said she owes you too much, she won’t be able to repay it in this lifetime. She can’t accept these anymore.” 

Garett didn’t take it instead he put down his teacup, looked at Hailey and gave a slight smile 

All of this, it’s already in her name What you’re holding is just paperwork” 

Hailey’s heart pained, she bit her lip and said. “Garett, it’s not right for you to give her these things, it will put her in a tough spot 

After all Eleanor is now married to Bernard. If she continues to accept such precious things from her ex–fiancé, people from the Laurence family would look down on her 

Don’t worry, it’s in the form of a legacy It’ll only be announced by the lawyer after I’m gone 

He had arranged everything for her, so she wouldn’t be put in a tough spot. 

“Legacy Hailey’s heart pounded in shock. 

“Garett, you’re not planning to do something stupid, are you?” 

Garett shook his head Hailey, I’ve been diagnosed with severe depression. Im under treatment, but I’m not sure how long the medication can keep up 

Severe depression? He 

Hailey couldn’t believe what she was hearing. As she blinked back tears, her vision blurred. But even through her tears, she could see the sorrow and weariness in Garett’s eyes. 

“When when did you get diagnosed with depression?” 

‘Im not sure 

Garett replied as if it was a matter of no consequence 

“Don’t worry about me. I’m fine, I’m even smiling more than before.” 

His smile was pure, just like when they were younger–so natural and carefree. 

Hailey had heard that it’s not always obvious when someone has depression. Maybe his inner world was already on the brink of collapse…. 

She didn’t need to ask why, she knew Garett was suffering from depression because he couldn’t let go of his past relationship 

“Garett, tell me, what can I do to help you get through this?” 

Garett laughed again at her words. 

“Hailey, don’t try to help me get over this. What if I forget about her? I promised her I would never forget. I intend to keep that promise, to remember her forever” he paused before adding. “even in the next life.” 

Hadey finally understood Garett’s deepest fear was not missing out, but forgetting Eleanor. He loved Eleanor so much that he locked his whole life in this love and refused to leave, even if it meant sinking into depression, consumed by darkness, dragged to hell by demons, he would still love her unwaveringly. It seems like the greatest treasure in his life was to love Eleanor, to remember Eleanor. 

“Garett 

She sighed, overwhelmed by his profound feelings. What was he supposed to do? Who could help him? 

Garett just shook his head. Nobody could help him, not even himself. He was trapped in his own world, only death could free him. Thinking about this, the smile on his face slowly faded. 

He looked up at the sea of flowers in the distance and spoke softly 

“Hailey, I want to leave this world, but I’m afraid shell feel guilty. I don’t dare to die” 

He was suffering from depression and wanted to leave, but because he was afraid Eleanor would feel guilty, afraid she wouldn’t live well for the rest of her life, he chose to keep living. 

Hailey couldn’t help it, she burst into tears
