Chapter 917
Elbert tried to beat around the bush, but Robin didn’t bite. He had no choice but to spill the beans
According to Elbert’s father, the illegitimate daughter was actually Granddad’s love child with another woman Fearing Grandma’s discovery Granddad hid her with the Hooper family However, he later deceived Grandma by claiming that bringing the illegitimate daughter back would bring wealth to the family, which convinced her to agree.
Surprisingly, it turned out that the illegitimate daughter became Bernard’s dad’s mistress Granddad slyly integrated her into the family but eventually kicked her out because
of their relationship
The shocking news of the Laurences mistreatment and the death of the Pine family’s illegitimate daughter reached Grandma’s ears. She realized that the one raised by the Hooper family, coincidentally named Tammie Pine, was actually Granddad’s love child. Furious, Grandma nearly filed for a divorce
Robin, amidst all the details, focused on the key fact the Pine family’s illegitimate daughter was Bernard’s dad’s mistress.
Upon hearing this, a thought flashed across his mind Could it be that Bernard was the child of the Pine family’s illegitimate daughter?
The thought quickly vanished though. If Bernard really was the child of the Pine family’s illegitimate daughter, how could the Laurence family let him be the family head?
But what if
Robin thought for a moment. Even if it was a long shot, Bernard wasn’t necessarily a match. Plus, he couldn’t exactly dig out Bernard’s heart, could he?
While Robin’s thoughts were all over the place, Elbert kept rambling in his ear, “I can’t believe Eleanor isn’t my cousin. Such a pity. I’ve always wanted a sweet sister like
her..”
Hearing this, Robin pictured Eleanor’s pretty face, “Is she sweet?”
Elbert nodded, comparing her to Robin’s sister, “A thousand times sweeter than your sister!”
Upon seeing Robin’s knitted brows. Elbert suddenly had an epiphany. “It’s even better that she’s not my cousin. Now I can chase after her?”
Robin shot him a displeased look, “She’s mamed”
Elbert shrugged nonchalantly, “I know, but so what? Let her get a divorce. After all, her husband is from the Laurence family, ruining their marriage would be like avenging my deceased family…”
Robin was speechless.
While he was about to find Katharine with his bodyguards, Bernard called
Robin glanced at Elbert who’s been tailing him, deliberately moved further away before picking up the call.
The moment he answered the call, Bernard’s icy voice came through, “You better explain to Blake in the same way you lied about my wife not being from the Pine family”

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...
