Chapter 891
Eleanor didn’t want to delve into the future, instead, she brushed off the hand covering her lips and asked, ‘Is your mam Wendy Pine or Tammie Pine?”
When Bernard saw that she even knew about Tammie Pine, he realized there was no point in hiding it anymore, gritted his teeth and confessed, “It’s Tammie Pine” Eleanor got it and nodded Elbert Pine had mentioned before that one of the three sisters wasn’t a Pine family member, but she didn’t know who
While she was pondering. Bernard suddenly gripped her chin forcefully, forcing her to look at him and ask, “Are you thinking about divorce?”
Eleanor opened her mouth and said, “No.”
Before she could finish, Bernard cut her off again with teary eyes. ‘We’re just cousins, it’s not a problem, please don’t divorce me.”
Eleanor, who had been interrupted twice, looked at the pained expression on Bernard’s face and slightly furrowed her brows. “We still share blood, how can your moral line
be so low?”
These words were like a bullet to Bemard’s heart, making it hurt even to breathe “So, Eleanor, are you planning to leave me?”
As he said this, his icy eyes welled up with tears, as if he would start crying the moment Eleanor nodded.
Eleanor felt that Bernard’s trust in her was not enough, maybe she didn’t provide a sense of security, so he was so afraid to lose her
But if Elbert hadn’t told her in advance that one of the three sisters wasn’t a Pine, she would indeed had chosen to give up on Bernard.
In her opinion, siblings can’t be together, her moral values wouldn’t allow her to do so, and she can’t live with her own brother.
Seeing her silence, Bernard thought she was tacitly agreeing, his body went cold, as did his heart.
He lowered his head, and in his despairing eyes, her face was the only thing that could fit: “Eleanor, without you, I’ll die.”
He said this many times, each time moving Eleanor to say, ‘Me too.”
With just this sentence, Bernard’s suffocating heart got some relief, Eleanor truly was his life.
He reached out, stroking her face. “Since you feel the same, can you not give up on me easily because of these things?”
Eleanor nodded at him, “I won’t give up on you, and I want to tell you, I suspect my mom is not from the Pine family, because Elbert told me he said one of the three sisters, Wendy Pine, Vanya Pine, and Tammie Pine, is not a Pine, so let’s go and get a DNA test now.”
Hearing this, the pain in Bernard’s eyes gradually faded.
“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”
He was scared to death just now.

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...
