Chapter 282 Bernardâs eyes flickered, seemingly torn, but he went back to being indifferent in a few seconds.
With one hand holding his wine glass, he casually said to Liana, âDonât go after her or bother her...â
Since he had chosen to let Eleanor be with Garett, he should let go completely and not put her in a difficult situation.
Liana was stunned, and asked incredulously, âMr. Laurence, have you really given up?â
She had never seen a man love a woman as crazily as Bernard loved Eleanor.
He loved Eleanor so much that he was willing to give his life and sacrifice everything for her.
But it was this man who chose to let go?
Bernard didnât respond to Lianaâs words, just raising his glass and drinking the red wine.
Perhaps he drank too fast, as his face suddenly turned pale.
In response, he merely set his glass down, bent forward, and retched into the waste bin beneath him, spewing out a disconcerting gush of blood Blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth, staining the floor red....
Seeing the blood, Liana screamed, âMr. Laurence, youâve got internal bleeding! Hurry to the hospital!â
But Bernard didnât seem to care. After wiping the blood from his mouth, he told the approaching servant, âStay away With the servant stopped, Bernard continued drinking with an icy look in his eyes.
Lianaâs face turned livid, she pulled out her phone and called Aidyn, asking him to come and drag Mr. Laurence to the hospital.
Aidyn arrived quickly since he lived nearby. Seeing the empty wine bottles and the blood on the floor, his face changed.
He walked over, helped Bernard up, and tried to persuade him, âMr. Laurence, donât drink anymore. Letâs go to the hospital and get your stomach treated...
But Bernard pushed him away, clutching his aching stomach, refusing to cooperate, as if he wanted to drink until he died.
Seeing that her cousin couldnât handle Bernard either, Liana gave up persuading him and left the mansion.
She took a sedative from a first aid kit in the car and injected it into Bernardâs arm when he wasnât looking.
Bernard finally closed his eyes, his burly body collapsing to the floor.
Aidyn quickly caught him and, together with Liana, rushed him to the hospital..
By midnight, Bernard had improved. But when he woke up, he searched everywhere for a cigarette.
Liana and Aidyn desperately tried to stop him, but he stared at them with red eyes and said, âWhat am I supposed to do, I miss her so much...
Every time he opened his eyes, he could see Eleanor, and couldnât shake her off.
Alcohol and cigarettes gave him temporary numbness and eased the pain in his heart.
But they were adamant about not letting him smoke or drink, leaving him at a loss.
Has anyone ever told him how to forget her completely?
Liana and Aidyn were left speechless, not expecting Bernard to be so heartbroken.
They didnât know what to say, only pitying the helpless Mr. Laurence at that moment.
Finally, under the influence of medication, he closed his eyes once more and fell into a deep sleep A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
ï¤Chapter 281 Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END)
ï¤Chapter 1765 (END)
Perhaps sleep was the only time Mr. Laurence wasnât tormented.
After leaving the hospital room, Liana asked Aidyn about the past events with Eleanor.
Aidyn was honest and loyal, few could get private information about Mr. Laurence from him.
But seeing his boss so affected by a woman, he unreservedly told Liana everything.
He hoped she could talk to Ms. Shultz and see if there was any chance of reconciliation, or else their boss would really be ruined.
After listening, Liana nodded to Aidyn, âItâs too late now, Ms. Shultz should be asleep. Iâll go to her tomorrow and explain everythingâ
