Chapter 69

Eleanor looked at Bernard with confusion, unsure of how to respond for a moment. But she felt that he had tolerated her for so long, and she owed him at least an explanation.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she said calmly, “Garett… was someone who once promised to love me for a lifetime.”

Bernard saw that her expression gradually turned somber, as if she was being engulfed in past memories.

His demeanor suddenly became cold, “It seems like you loved him a lot.”

Eleanor collected her thoughts and replied indifferently, “I used to love him.”

Bernard pressed on, “And now?”

“Now?” Eleanor looked at Bernard, observing his tightly pursed lips and thin face. In her heart, she wanted to answer, “Now, I love you.” But she didn’t have the courage to say it out loud, nor did she believe she had the right to do so.

She felt she was no longer deserving of him.

Clenching her hands tightly, she forced a smile and said against her true feelings, “Now, I don’t love anyone.”

In other words, she had never loved him.
