Chapter 1459

Eleanor’s tentative questioning made Bernard bow his head. “In that case,” he said, his voice heavy with concern, ‘your chances of survival are only 10%. If we operate now, it might go up to 30%”

Bernard reached out with his other hand to gently trace the features of Eleanor’s face, her eyebrows, her eyes, her contours. ‘Eleanor,” he implored, “I can’t bear the thought of losing you again. Forget about the baby for now. Please, just focus on staying alive, okay?”

Upon hearing the dire statistics, Eleanor felt as if she had plunged into a frigid abyss. The thought that both she and her unborn child might die left her heart wrenching with sorrow. She had faced death before and no longer feared it, but Bernard…

Lifting her tear-filled eyes to Bernard whose face had paled with concern, she whispered, “It doesn’t matter if I die, but I just can’t bear to leave you behind.”

The thought of leaving Bernard brought tears streaming down her cheeks, spilling like pearls from a severed string. Each warm tear that landed on Bernard’s hand was like a knife to his throat, each one tightening the grip of pain and sorrow.

Bernard, swallowing the razor-sharp anguish, grasped Eleanor’s hand and placed it over his heart. Then, with a voice full of resolve and authority, he declared, “I won’t let you die.”

Without his permission, not even the grim reaper could take her away. And if death dared to snatch her, Bernard would follow it into the depths of hell itself, becoming a vengeful spirit to slay all the reapers.
