A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114 

Hailey quickly replied, “Don’t forget, you’re my childhood friend and family. If you find any clues, you must tell me, otherwise you’ll disappoint my deep feelings for you all these years.” 

Seeing this, Eleanor couldn’t help but smile. Hailey truly believed in her and wouldn’t get mad at her for being reckless. 

She replied, “Okay, I’ll do whatever you say,” added a goodnight emoji, and went to sleep with peace of mind. 

The next afternoon, she was woken up by a dozen phone calls and grabbed her phone from under her pillow. 

“Ms. Shultz, are you awake?” 

Hearing Jason’s clear and pleasant voice, Eleanor struggled to open her eyes. 

“Mr. Clowers, what’s up?” 

“How’s your health?” 

Eleanor muttered a “good” in response. 

Seeing her indifference, Jason felt a little disappointed, but he quickly adjusted his mood. 

The Clowers Group is hosting a celebration dinner tonight. Can I invite you as my date?” 

Eleanor hesitated, and without any doubt, she refused, “I don’t want to go.” 

Being rejected, Jason didn’t get angry but continued gently, “Please come as a favor to look after me, okay?” 

Eleanor replied coldly, “Colter’s already taking care of you. Why do you need me?” 

Jason gently explained, “Colter made a mistake and I already sent him back to B City” 

Eleanor thought that Jason would return to B City after the bidding meeting, but he not only stayed but also sent his assistant away. 

Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed, “Aren’t you going back to B City?” 

Hearing her question, Jason felt more disappointed, “Do you really want me to go back to B City?” 

Eleanor certainly hoped he would go back soon; otherwise, she would have to entertain him continuously. 

She was not willing to spend her precious time on Jason. 

But she would never say that to his face. 

Seeing her silence, Jason knew her thoughts. 

He smiled bitterly and said calmly, “I’ll leave after the celebration.” 

Then, he pleaded with Eleanor, “Can you accompany me to the dinner tonight?” 

Eleanor agreed as soon as she heard that he would leave after the celebration. 

She got up, took some medicine, changed into loose clothes, and hid the paleness on her face with makeup before going downstairs. Jason had already parked the car downstairs. Seeing her coming out of the elevator, he hurriedly opened the driver’s door and walked towards her. 

He politely took her bag and opened the passenger door for her. 

Facing his care, Eleanor felt a little uncomfortable but said nothing and got into the car. 

She fastened her seatbelt and looked out the window, noticing a Bugatti not far away. 

Seeing this car, Eleanor was reminded of Bernard, whose favorite car to drive was this Bugatti. 

She checked the license plate and found it wasn’t his. 

She clearly remembered the license plates of each of his cars, but she had never seen this one. 

So, the Bugatti parked in the distance wasn’t his. 

Eleanor felt disappointed but also thought her expectations were foolish. 

Now, he was about to marry his crush. What was she still hoping for?
