A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 2

After Bernard left, his personal assistant Aidyn Reyes walked in with some pills.

He handed them to Eleanor and said respectfully, “Ms. Shultz, sorry for the trouble.”

These were birth control pills. Bernard didn’t love her, so naturally he would not allow her to get pregnant.

Whenever they finished, he would have Aidyn deliver the pills and require Aidyn to watch her swallow them.

Eleanor looked at the white pill and felt her heart ache again.

Whether it was her heart failing or being hurt by Bernard, she found it hard to breathe.

“Ms. Shultz…”

Seeing her unresponsive, Aidyn immediately reminded her, fearing she might refuse to take it.

Eleanor glanced at him, took the pill and swallowed it without even drinking water.

Aidyn’s worried expression faded, and he took out a property title and a check from his briefcase, placing them in front of Eleanor.

“Mr. Laurence’s compensation for you, aside from the property and luxury car, an extra fifty million. Please accept it.”

He’s quite generous.
