A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 409

When Eleanor stepped outside and saw the fleet of fancy cars parked there, she felt a bit lost.

Foreign land, unfamiliar surroundings, strangers everywhere. This loneliness made her want to bolt.

Following her gaze to their intertwined fingers, Bernard realized he had let go of her hand earlier.

Quickly, he bent down and apologized, “Eleanor, I’m sorry. I should have explained to you first before letting go of your hand to walk with another woman. I messed up, you can blame me.”
