Chapter 381 Such warm and humble words hit her ears, sending a jolt through her heart.
She gently turned her head to look at Bernard, who was holding her tightly from behind His face was gaunt, pale, and his eyes were red, even the corners of his eyes were red The Bernard the remembered was always high and mighty, full of himself But now, he had lowered his haughty and arrogant attitude time and time again just to hold onto her Like a star in the night sky, unreachable that now suddenly fell into dust.
Yet those stars that fell to the ground were still celestial bodies, how could they change for her?
She reached out and lightly touched the thick hair on his forehead....
Such a gentle touch made Bernardâs body stiff He looked at the woman within his reach, seemingly seeing determination beneath her gentleness.
He instinctively tightened his hold on her Eleanor please, donât be so heartless to me.â
His grip was so strong that it almost crushed her into his bones, forcing Eleanor to swallow back what she wanted to say
She withdrew her hand, lowered her gaze, looked at his scarred right hand, and sighed deeply after a long silence âHow long are the few days you mentioned?â
Bernardâs face stiffened, and his disappointed eyes it up with hope again.
Eleanor had a soft spot, she was still the same gentle and kind Eleanor He held her with both hands, tighter this time, as if he had regained something precious, holding onto it for dear life.
âWhen you find what youâve lost, well end this, okay?â
He wanted forever, but she still had Gareft, and it was impossible for her to be with him forever He knew it was absurd, unreasonable, and despicable to make such a request knowing that she was married But he would rather be a secret lover if it meant he could be with her, even if it was only for a few days.
Eleanor clenched her fists, hesitated for a few seconds, and then compromised. âOkay I promise youâ
Bernard hugged her tightly and said gratefully into her ear, âEleanor, thank you for giving me another chance to start again...â
Eleanorâs clear eyes slowly moved upward, looking at the afterglow outside the window, her gaze lost She didnât know if the decision she made was right or wrong. She was both scared and unsettled....
Because in her heavy memory, Bernard was very persistent. When he liked something, he had to have it.
But once he got it, he was more indifferent She had seen his coldness, that boneâchilling coldness that kept people at bay was the most vivid image in her memory She was afraid of that Bernard, and also afraid of his persistence just to get her...
When she was filled with helplessness and fear, Bernard turned his head and gently kissed her cheek âEleanor, donât be afraid, I wont hurt you againâ
He felt her petite body tremble, knowing what she was scared of He wanted to tell her that he had made a mistake once and would never make it again, b ut he knew very well that words are the weakest A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
