Chapter 780
Robin was frowning, his voice heavy. “Why didn’t anyone tell me Ethan was buried with someone else when he died?”
The news of Ethan and Casey’s deaths was known within the family circle, but the cause of their deaths remained a mystery
This was a royal secret, the news was sealed off, and no one knew the reason, let alone that someone was buried with Ethan
“I just found out too. The Zieglers were keeping a tight lid on it, they didn’t spill a peep” The voice on the other end of the line explained
“Weren’t the Zieglers always against Emilia joining the family? How come they agreed to bury her with Ethan after his death?”
“Maybe they wanted to give Ethan a wife, considering he never married in his lifetime.”
Robin had a hunch that there was more to the Zieglers agreeing to the joint burial than meets the eye, but he couldn’t put his finger on it
There was another thing that piqued Robin’s interest. “How did Emilia die? When did she die?”
“I’m not sure Emilia’s information in recent years seems to have been tampered with, I can’t find a trace.
Was it because someone knew his intention of finding Emilia, so they blocked her real information ahead of time?
He always thought there was something fishy about this, but everything he knew made sense, so he never suspected someone was playing tricks behind his back.
Now, however, he fell that most of the information he had received might be bogus. But who was the one changing Emilia’s information?
Was it Bernard who was always messing with him?
But why would Bernard want to tamper with Emilia’s information? Did they have any connection?
Robin was perplexed and getting more imitated with each passing moment. Finally, he decided to stop thinking and told the person on the other end of the line in a cold
voice,
‘She’s dead now It’s pointless to keep digging Find a suitable time and let mom know.
“What about mom?”
“I’ll figure something out.”
With that, Robin hung up, his eyes icy as he stared out the car window
Meanwhile, Hailey returned to her office right after Robin left the nightclub and video–called Eleanor.
“Eleanor, Robin came looking for Emilia again. I told him Emilia was dead and buried in the Ziegler family cemetery. I don’t know if he bought it.”
Hailey finished, looking at Eleanor on the screen, her face half–covered by a black mask.
“Are you sick? Why are you wearing a mask?”
“No, not sick.”
Eleanor on the other end of the video sighed
“There’s this guy named Elbert who’s been filming me with his phone. I don’t know what he’s up to, so I had to wear this mask to fend him off.”
This Elbert guy was strange, not only sneaking pictures of her but also stalking her and Bernard
Wherever they went, he followed When confronted, he would say the road didn’t belong to them and he could go wherever he wanted.
Bernard said if it weren’t for Elbert saving her before, he would have dealt with him already.

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...
