Chapter 749
Lost his love, lost his legs, and now with severe depression, why is Garett’s life full of bumps and ruts?
People often say some folks are here to endure hardships, and it will be alright after they’ve gone through it, so Hailey, don’t shed tears for me
Garett took a tissue from the table and handed it to her. His gentlemanly gesture made Hailey think he was the best man in the world.
“Garett, you said you ain’t gonna die for her, then you gotta live well. You can’t take your life lightly”
She finished speaking and opened her phone, showing him the picture she had taken carber of Eleanor making a wish in front of the deity
“Look, this is a picture of Eleanor making a wish for your health. Even though you two have chosen different paths in life, to Eleanor, you are still the most important person. So Garett, you must take your medication and recover well, don’t let her down”
Garett saw Eleanor’s devout prayer, his eyes brightened a bit
He stared at the picture on Hailey’s phone and after a while, he looked up and smiled at Hailey
“Can you send me this picture?”
All their photos from their younger days had been destroyed, except for the photoshopped wedding one.
He had no pictures of her, let alone pictures of them together, which seemed to foretell their end
“Sure”
Hailey took back her phone and sent the picture to his phone
Upon receiving it, a gentle smile appeared on Garetts face
He stared at his phone for a long time before looking up at Hailey
“Hailey don’t tell her about my situation, let her and Bernard live happily ever after.”
“What about you?”
“Me?” Garett raised an eyebrow Till live happily ever after too”
Maybe fearing that Hailey wouldn’t believe him, he added. “If you’re worried, just come check on me more often.”
After marrying Yilia, Cotter didn’t have as much time to spend with him
Sometimes he felt lonely and wanted to chat with someone, but couldn’t find anyone…
And his good buddy Tyler Howell was trapped too, unable to save himself, let alone him
Hailey would definitely visit him often She nodded decisively: “Garett, I will come see you often”
Garett nodded, poured out the cold tea, and poured her another cup: “give it a try”
Hailey picked up the tea, took a sip, and seemed to taste a bit of bitterness. She responded, “It’s a bit bitter.”
A bit bitter, like Garett, living a life like tea, tasting the bitterness of life.
He walked the earth, experienced the various states of life tasted the bitterness of emotions, maybe this was his growing process…
Hailey stayed and had dinner with the Clowers family, then stayed for two more days
During these two days, she pushed Garett around and took him to the B City attractions they used to dream about when they were kids.
Hailey took a lot of pictures for him, and also took a lot of pictures with him.
Just like when they were young, three of them went somewhere and left a lot of memories.

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...
