A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1404

After six long months, Bryson’s eyes brimmed with tears as he saw a flesh-and-blood Bernard return home. The wrinkles on his aged face seemed to deepen with emotion.

“Mr. Laurence, you’ve finally come back. I feared the worst…”

Bernard lifted his hand and patted Bryson’s shoulder with a comforting gesture before turning and heading straight into the study.

Realizing that Bernard appeared preoccupied, Bryson didn’t dare to disturb him. Instead, he composed himself and instructed the cook to prepare a feast before heading out to pick up little Nina from school.

Ever since Bernard and Eleanor had left, Nina couldn’t stop talking about them. The ordeal they had been through was perilous.

To keep the child from worrying, Bryson had told her they were on a business trip. But Nina was a sharp cookie – she didn’t buy the story that people on a business trip couldn’t even make a call or video chat.

Just as Bryson was running out of excuses, Bernard returned, allowing Bryson to breathe a sigh of relief and finally give Nina a proper explanation. Bernard had kept the secret of the chip in his brain from everyone, including Aidyn. When he noticed Aidyn following him into the study, he frowned slightly.
