Chapter 892
Inside the Dean’s office, Eleanor and Beinard were sitting on the couch, anxiously waiting for the DNA test results.
Bernard’s hand was clutching Eleanor’s tightly, the heat from his palm seeming to seep into her skin.
Although his facial expression didn’t show much change, Eleanor could sense his tension
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine,” Eleanor tried to reassure him
Then she lightly tickled his palm, hinting for him to relax But Bernard turned to Eleanor and asked,
“What if Wendy Pine really is the adopted daughter of the Pine family? Then we’d still be cousins and siblings. What would you do?”
Elbert once mentioned that one of the three sisters wasn’t a biological daughter of the Pine family That meant, apart from Vanya and Tammie Pine, Robin Spencer’s mother. Wendy Pine, also had a 30% chance of being adopted.
Although Eleanor had her suspicions about her mother not being a biological Pine, until the DNA results came out, everything was up in the air. Bernard was worried about
the unknowTI
Eleanor had thought about this issue. Could she cross moral boundaries for Bernard?
In her heart, if it were for Bernard, she could try to accept it. But then, they wouldn’t be able to have children…..
Because of the child issue, Eleanor hesitated and didn’t immediately respond to Bernard’s question. Misinterpreting her silence as hesitation, Bernard let go of her hand and stood up
“Where are you going?” Eleanor asked.
“To the bathroom,” Bernard replied.
Then he quickly left the Dean’s office to find Liana, who was handling the DNA test.
“Mr. Laurence, the results aren’t ready yet. Don’t worry,” Liana said when she saw Bernard hurriedly enter, assuming he was anxious to see the results.
But Bernard didn’t respond. He walked up to Liana and coldly instructed,
“If the results show we’re siblings, change the report.”
Hearing this command, Liana’s hand shook, and she looked up at Bernard, not believing he’d ask her to do such a thing.
“This isn’t really appropriate, is it?” Liana tried to argue.
But Bernard wasn’t having it. He coldly said, “Being without Eleanor is not appropriate.”
He wanted Eleanor as his wife, even if it meant resorting to underhanded methods. So what?
Bernard admitted his thoughts were selfish, but so what?
He had made so many efforts to get Eleanor, he couldn’t lose her over something like this.
“You’ve done fake DNA reports before. I believe it’s not difficult for you” Bernard said before turning to leave.
Liana stood dumbstruck as she watched Bernard leave.
She had done a fake DNA report for Eleanor before Was Bernard subtly hinting at that?
Looking at the DNA numbers in her hand, Liana slightly smiled. If he wanted a fake report, so be it!
Bernard was gone for quite a while. By the time he returned, Eleanor was nearly asleep. “You were gone for so long,” she said.
Bernard sat next to her and calmly said, “The bathroom here isn’t very clean”

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...
