A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1345

Eleanor was taken aback at the sight of Peterson. She couldn’t comprehend how he knew her, let alone why he’d come to see her. Could it be that he had figured out she had impersonated Emilia to negotiate a project at his home?

Peterson didn’t seem to mind Robin’s arrogance, offering Eleanor a gentle smile instead.

“Ms. Shultz, do you have a moment?”

Pulling herself together, Eleanor nodded, “Of course.”

Peterson’s gaze shifted to the others, “I’d like to speak with you privately.”

Robin was about to protest when Eleanor spoke up, “Cedric, could you take Hailey to the lounge to rest?”

Regardless of his confusion, Cedric respected her decision, assisting Hailey by gently holding her arm and waist. As he turned to leave, he glanced at Robin, “Aren’t you leaving?”
