Chapter 925
Eleanor was taken aback, then said respectfully. “So you were Dr. Terrill’s mentor…”
Mr. Keith put down his cup and humbly waved his hand, “I can’t be called her mentor, I just guided her for a few years and helped her win some awards in medicine.”
Blake, sitting next to him, leaning on his cane, said, “Stop playing the humble card, show Eleanor!”
Mr. Keith glanced at him, saying, “You always look so grumpy, like an old man. Be careful not to get hemorrhoids!”
Blake was furious at being scolded in front of the younger crowd, and he retorted, “Keith, you’ve crossed the line!”
Eleanor wanted to laugh but restrained herself. She reached out her hand, attempting to defuse the argument between the two elderly men. “Mr. Keith, could you check if I
have a chance to recover…”
Mr. Keith, who had intended to respond to Blake, noticed Eleanor’s gesture and had to keep quiet.
After a while, Mr. Keith looked up and asked Eleanor, “Have you been taking too many medications? Can you try to stop?”
Eleanor shook her head, “The anti–rejection drugs for my heart and the drugs for treating my eyes can’t be stopped.”
Mr. Keith subconsciously glanced at her heart. She had a heart transplant at such a young age, no wonder she looked so weak
Seeing him silent, Eleanor cautiously asked, “Can I still have children?”
Mr. Keith withdrew his hand and looked at her, “How many major surgeries have you had?”
Eleanor answered truthfully. “I’ve had two major surgeries, both related to my heart, and some minor ones…”
Hearing that she had so many surgeries, Blake frowned, “Is it because she’s had too many surgeries that she can’t have children?”
Mr. Keith shook his head while putting away the cushion, “No, she can have children.”
Hearing the doctor’s words, both Blake and Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as Mr. Keith was about to say something, Bryson’s voice came from outside-
“Madam, there’s a tough lady outside who knocked down all the bodyguards, you better go check it out…”
Hearing this, Eleanor knew it was Robin’s sister and immediately stood up.
“Blake, Mr. Keith, wait for me a moment, I’ll go handle this…”
Blake nodded, and Eleanor left.
After Eleanor left, Mr. Keith frowned at Blake, “I suggest, it’s best not to let her have children.”
Blake, who had just let out a sigh of relief, suddenly appeared worried again and asked, “What do you mean?”

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...
