A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1279

Hailey decided to stay by Eleanor’s side, and Eleanor didn’t reject her offer. She knew that in times like these, the presence of loved ones providing silent support and comfort was invaluable.

Eleanor didn’t make a fuss or shed tears. She quietly allowed Hailey to look after her occasionally helping Nina with her schoolwork, maintaining a calm facade as if everything was as it used to be.

Even Bryson and Scott started to believe that Eleanor was slowly recovering from her grief. For them, it was a solace, as they had lost their beloved friend, and their only motivation to keep going was to look after Eleanor, who was the love of Bernard’s life.

But when everyone had let their guard down, Eleanor picked up Caleb’s urn and headed to the hospital.

Ever since Katharine found out about Caleb’s death, she had been bedridden, surviving on IV nutrition. When she saw Eleanor holding the urn, Katharine, who had stopped crying, broke down once again.

However, this time, she didn’t lash out at Eleanor or blame her; she just sobbed quietly.

Suppressing her own grief, Eleanor approached Katharine’s bedside, passing her the heavy urn.

“He was your fiancé, it’s only right that I return him to you.”

Katharine stretched out her trembling hand to accept the urn, her warm fingertips brushing over the cold surface as if touching a loved one.
