Chapter 776
The moment the idea popped into his head, Elbert immediately whipped out his phone, found Robin’s number, and dialed it quickly
Robin was on his way to Hailey’s nightclub Seeing the call from Elbert, he answered it with an annoyed look.
“What’s up?”
“Aren’t you looking for Emilia? Do you have a picture of her? Can I take a look?”
Robin was holding Emilia’s photo in his hand, trying to memorize her face.
“What do you want with her picture?”
Elbert glanced at the figure, who obediently followed Bernard away
“I saw someone who looked familiar, and I wondered if it was the person you’re looking for!
Upon hearing this, Robin immediately hung up the phone and sent Elbert Emilia’s photo.
After receiving the photo, Elbert zoomed in to take a closer look. The Emilia in the photo did bear some resemblance to Eleanor.
But it was just a resemblance. Eleanor was not Emilia, meaning she was not Vanya’s daughter or the person Robin was searching for
He remembered his father saying that when Vanya came to ask for help, she brought two children with her a five year–old girl named Emilia and a baby
But the baby had already died of a heart attack when Vanya starved to death on the streets, and Emilia was running around carrying the baby.
This was a story Emilia herself told the Pine family, and they thought a five–year–old child wouldn’t lie, so they didn’t investigate further.
Elbert wondered if this Eleanor, who looked like Emilia, could be the supposedly dead baby
As he was lost in thought, Robin’s call came in again.
“Is the person you think is familiar the one I’m looking for?”
Robin was always straight to the point and had little patience, so he asked for the result as soon as he called
“She’s not the one you’re looking for, but could she be Vanya’s other daughter?”
“Are you suggesting that the baby miraculously came back to life and is now bouncing around right in front of you?”
“It’s a possibility.”
Upon hearing this absurdity. Robin lost his temper. Holding his phone tightly, he cursed, “Elbert, all you do is play around all day. The Pine family will go down the drain if it’s left in your hands!”
Feeling Robin’s tone, Elbert quickly shut up, worried that if he continued, Robin might smash his phone in anger.
Elbert quietly hung up the call, but he couldn’t help looking in the direction where Eleanor had left.
His father would definitely remember Vanya’s face. Once he got a photo of Eleanor and asked his father about it, everything would be clear
Then Robin, who always criticized him for not being serious, would kneel down in front of him and say, “Elbert, I’m sorry, I was wrong.”
At this moment, Robin, who was being imagined as kneeling down by Elbert, was very angry. He threw his phone away and glared at the driver.
“Are we there yet?”
The driver, who was waiting for the traffic light, turned around shakily
“Just a little bit more, please wait a moment.”
Having spent so much time on the other side of the Pacific, Robin had been feeling frustrated and had nowhere to vent.
He had originally planned to return home to settle things with Bernard, but was told that Bernard had already gone on a honeymoon with his new wife!
Robin couldn’t understand how a cold blooded person like Bernard could get married.
But when he found out that Bernard’s wife was an orphan with no background, Robin’s anger subsided a bit.
So what if he got married before him? He still had to marry a woman with no background. He couldn’t compare to him!
Robin scoffed, urging the driver to hurry up, or else the place might be closed by the time they got there.

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...
