A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1270

Eleanor was clutching a piece of paper, sitting by the window, quietly waiting for news from Bernard when Bryson walked in,

“Ma’am, Evan’s back.”

Upon hearing the news, Eleanor was stunned for a moment before her previously lifeless eyes filled with hope.

Without even bothering to put on her shoes, she quickly ran past Bryson, dashed downstairs, and bolted into the living room.

Evan, who was sitting on the sofa, slowly turned his head at the commotion upstairs…

When she saw Evan’s familiar face, Eleanor’s clear eyes suddenly brimmed with tears.

Evan’s safe return… did it mean Bernard was safe too?

Eleanor walked over, standing before Evan,

“What about him?”

Evan cast down his eyes, hiding the sorrow in them, and said softly, “He’s… not back yet.”

A pang of anxiety hit Eleanor’s heart, and the hope that had just ignited within her was instantly extinguished. “When can he come back?”
