A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 181

When Hailey thought about Eleanor saying not to blame him, she didn’t say anything more and turned to fetch water, leaving him alone.

Jason stood at the door, looking at the frail, petite figure on the bed, with mist gradually filling his eyes.

He tried to steady his shaking body, clenched his fists, and took heavy steps towards the bed.

Eleanor, who couldn’t see, felt someone approaching and thought Hailey was back, so she reached out for her clothes,

“Hailey…”

Before she could grab the clothes, her hand was caught by another larger hand.

The hand that gripped her tightly was trembling slightly, as if there were so many words for him to say, but he couldn’t find the words, so it just held her hand tightly.

Eleanor realized that it was a man’s hand, and Bernard’s handsome face flashed in her mind, but she didn’t think it could be him.

She tried calling out, “Garett…”

Jason didn’t expect that she could recognize him, and after recognizing him, she didn’t shake off his hand.
