A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 53

Eleanor had just booked a restaurant on her phone when Cameron called again.

“Eleanor, send the restaurant address to Mr. Laurence too.”

He hung up without giving Eleanor a chance to speak. Frowning, she put down the phone, opened WhatsApp, and sent the address to Bernard’s assistant.

The assistant replied, “Ms. Schultz, I can’t reach Mr. Laurence at the moment. Please send it to his WhatsApp”

Eleanor had no choice but to unblock Bernard’s WhatsApp, quickly forwarded the address, and blocked him again.

After sorting that out, she grabbed the keys to the company van and headed to the parking lot.

As she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Bernard emerge from the private elevator, wearing a black coat and taking long
