A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 136

As she hugged her legs and leaned against the head of the bed, two extremely dazzling car lights shone on the floor–to–ceiling window. Following that, the sound of car wheels rolling on the ground could be heard from downstairs, and a Koenigsegg pulled up in front of the villa. The bodyguard holding an umbrella opened the car door for a man who was nearly 6’2” and slowly stepped out of the car.

As he casually untied the tie around his neck, he coldly ordered, “Don’t let him in.”

The bodyguard replied with a “yes” and escorted the man into the villa before turning around to walk towards the iron gate outside the garden. Eleanor stood by the floor–to–ceiling window, looking in the direction of the bodyguard’s gaze, and saw a man outside the iron gate in the distance. It was too far away and it was raining heavily, so she couldn’t see the man’s face clearly and didn’t pay much attention to it.

She forced herself to stand up and, leaning on the wall, walked downstairs.

Seeing her coming down the stairs, his gloomy face became even colder.

Eleanor didn’t notice and hurriedly walked up to him, saying, “Mr. Laurence…”

She wanted to say something to him, but he didn’t even look at her and went straight to the bathroom.

Seeing him ignore her, Eleanor’s face didn’t look very good either. What was Bernard trying to do?

Keeping her at home and ignoring her, was he just using her to vent his emotions?
