A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 988

Yeager firmly believed he was blameless, ready for a face–off with Bernard

“I don’t have his family background, nor a big bro who can solve all my problems, so it’s only natural i can’t outdo him”

Bernard smiled a gentle, knowing smile

“Besides, Cedric doesn’t need to play any tricks to win over Ms. Vulpe”

His gaze landed on Yeager’s bandaged hand as he said this

Yeaper was taken aback that Bernard had seen through his attempt to fake Cedric’s car accident and felt cornered

It was like being stripped naked, no cover left, his inner self laid bare with a few simple sentences

As he was drowning in embarrassment, Bernard’s cold voice, laced with mockery, echoed in his ears.

“The biggest difference between Cedric and you is that he wouldn’t stoop to your level to compete for Ms Vulpe. If he did, you wouldn’t stand a chance” The words were patronizing and made Yeager feel like crap

It was like a thorn in his heart, exposing his true self.

He knew that even though Cedric was a playboy, he was living an honest, carefree life.

But from another perspective, if he wanted something, he had to play dirty
