A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1162

As Eleanor alighted from the car and beheld the dimly lit mansion, she couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by the palpable loneliness that seemed to envelop Liana. Liana had no servants, no family, only her own solitary self.

The aunt she had considered her closest kin, who she had believed cared for her the most, had merely exploited her as a pawn. The man she was convinced she should despise the most turned out to harbor a deep love for her. His name was Tyler.

Betrayed by her nearest confidante and having extinguished the life of the man who harbored deep love for her, amidst such despair, could she still perceive the love of those around her?

Eleanor was fraught with concern. Turning to Bernard, she inquired, “Darling, can I bring Nina and Hailey to accompany Liana tomorrow?”

Bernard gently squeezed her hand, nodding in agreement, “Liana appears to be struggling Ensure to monitor her emotional state.”

Being ill at ease with female company, he had no choice but to entrust this task to Eleanor, in the hope that Liana would realize there were still things in this world worth living for.

Eleanor thought for a moment, then held Bernard’s hand against her heart, asking coquettishly. “Can I stay at Liana’s place?”

Looking tenderly at Eleanor, Bernard asked, “How long are you planning to stay?”

Eleanor replied, “…for a while.” She would decide how long depending on the situation.
