A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1428

Nobody paid much attention to whether Robin had left or not; all eyes were fixed on Bernard as blood streamed from his shoulder…

“Sir, please let go of your lady. Let’s get you out of here for treatment,” Scott said, reaching out to take Eleanor from Bernard’s arms. But Bernard, clutching his wife, took a step back.

“Lead the way,” Bernard commanded with a tilt of his chiseled chin, indicating for Scott to guide them.

Snapping back to reality, Scott withdrew his arms and gestured politely, “This way, sir.”

“The revenge that needed to be taken has been dealt with. You don’t need to follow me anymore. Disband here and now.” Having settled all scores, Bernard intended to let Yates and Xavier settle their own fights like dogs.

With this thought in mind, he turned to board the helicopter but was stopped by a call from the Siren Organization.

“Sir, we’re willing to leave the Siren Organization, but please, let us continue to follow you.”
