A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 897

Chapter 897 

A chilling iciness flickered in Bernard’s gaze, his head subily inclined, seemingly weighed down by murderous intent 

In response, Elbert swallowed a lump in his throat, bewilderment washing over him. Never before had he perceived Bernard as daunting. Why then did he feel like a cornered 

animal now? 

Confusion tethered Elbert Scratching his scalp, he tactfully veered the conversation elsewhere. ‘Ah summoned me to discuss your return to England with me, have you?” Eleanor lightly shook her head, revealing her intentions, “No, you’re here because I require a single strand of your hair” 

Elbert quipped back. “I understand if you need a loan due to matrimonial turbulence, but asking for a piece of my hair? That’s beyond my comprehension” 

His remark was a thinly–veiled swipe at Bernard Eleanor noted Elbert’s boldness in baiting Bernard and found it amusing. “It’s for a DNA test, you see 

Elbert’s face lit up, “Oh,” but then he added, “You look so much like my sister, it’s obvious that you are from the Pine family is a test still necessary?” 

Eleanor picked up where he left off, “There are lots of people in the world who look alike. Just because you look like my sister doesn’t mean you are her daughter. It’s better to have a test to make sure, otherwise, I won’t believe it” 

Elbert nodded. “Okay, go ahead and use my hair for the test. But once it’s done, will you go with me to G country?”

Without hesitation, Eleanor said, “If the result shows I’m part of the Pine family, then it’s right to go to G country to see her one last time. If not, then I won’t go. Is that okay“” 

Elbert was overjoyed when Eleanor agreed to go to G country, patting his chest, “Don’t worry, you must be part of the Pine family.” 

After saying this, he sneaked a glance at the expressionless Bernard, “But you’ve married the enemy of the Pine family, we definitely won’t accept that. Can you divorce him once the results come out?” 

Bernard, leaning against the sofa, lightly cracked his knuckles. 

Upon hearing the cracking sound, Elbert swallowed nervously again. 

Eleanor brushed him off nonchalantly. “We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.” 

Elbert agreed, deciding not to rush things. 

Eleanor nodded and held out her hand, “Give me your hair.” 

Right as Elbert was about to pull out his hair, Bernard gestured to Scott beside him. 

Scott caught the signal and beat Elbert to it, grabbing his hair, ‘Mr. Pine, let me do it.” 

Without waiting for Elbert’s consent, Scott yanked at his hair, pulling out a big tuft in an instant. 

Elbert clutched his head, screaming in pain, “Are you out of your mind?!”
