Chapter 471 The guy glanced down at the chat box and slowly looked up at her.
âAre you worried about me?â
His voice was lazy and casual, as if he was deliberately tempting her to say what he wanted to hear.
Eleanor didnât fall for it, she just stared at him, sizing him up.
His deep, bright eyes were now free of redness, but still carried a hint of pale crimson.
His thin lips were covered in her lipstick, concealing their original color, but his stunning cheeks looked unusually pale.
Seeing him like this, Eleanorâs eyes were filled with complex emotions. Her lips parted slightly, about to speak, when he suddenly leaned in.
His unique, refreshing scent hit her face, making Eleanorâs heart tremble and she unconsciously leaned towards the car window.
Her back had just touched the window when she saw his neatly trimmed fingertips glide across her cheek and brace against the window.
With her surrounded, the man lowered his eyes, âEleanor, answer me.â
His handsome face got closer and closer to her, and Eleanorâs gaze fell right into his starry eyes.
The twin kling stars in his eyes gradually entered hers, making her nod involuntarily without being tempted.â
He gently pursed his lips, a small smile appearing, âEleanor, Iâm fine, donât worry.â
His voice was clear and strong, falling on her ears like a spell that could calm her down.
After confessing his feelings, the phrase he said the most to her was âEleanor, donât worry.â
Eleanor reached out, wanting to touch his cheek like she did in the W City, but lost her courage as she got closer to him.
She slightly retracted her fingers, intending to let go, but he held her hand tightly.
He held her hand gently against his cheek, âEleanor, donât be afraid.â
Donât be afraid to touch him, to love him, or to start over with him; he would give her the most unique love in the world.
After a few seconds of silence, her fingers spread out on his face, feeling his unusually cold temperature, Eleanor furrowed her brow.
âAre you really okay?â She asked.
Bernard covered her small hand with his large palm and shook his head at her.
âIâm fine.â He said.
âHave you seen a doctor?â Eleanor asked.
Bernard didnât answer, his beautiful eyes fixed on Eleanor, as if trying to find a hint of love in her expressions.
Eleanor realized that he wasnât answering and lowered her head, not asking any more questions.
Bernard took her phone, found Lianaâs number in the contacts, called and put it on speaker.
Eleanor was puzzled when he suddenly called Liana, âWhy are you calling Liana?â
Bernard lowered his head and gently touched her cheek with his tall nose, âDonât you believe me when I say Iâm fine?â
The meaning of his words was that Liana knew his condition, and having Liana tell her directly would ease her doubts. However, she would feel embarrassed to use her own phone to call Liana and ask about his health.
âI believe you, give me my phone!â She said.

Eleanor tried to grab her phone back, but he reacted faster, swinging his long arm back, making it impossible for her to get it. Eleanorâs face turned red with anger, and at that moment, Liana answered, âHello, Eleanor, whatâs up?â
Hearing Lianaâs voice, Eleanor could only take her gaze off Bernard and look at the phone screen, âI, I dialed the wrong number.â
Bernard turned his head and raised his thick eyebrows slightly, âHmm?â
Liana, who was doing rounds with a group of doctors, stopped in surprise when she heard Bernardâs voice from Eleanorâs phone. After standing still for a few seconds, she quickly took her hand out of her white coat pocket and waved to the doctors behind her. After the doctors left the rounds, she hurried to a hidden corner, covering the phone and whispered, âEleanor, are you with Mr. Laurence?â Liana deliberately lowered her voice, fearing that Bernard would hear, which made Eleanor helpless, âYeah, I dialed the wrong number, Iâll
hang up.â
After saying that, she wanted to press the end call button, but Bernard grabbed her hand.
He forcibly intertwined their fingers and calmly said to Liana, âSheâs worried about my health; you tell her.â
The cold voice from the other end of the phone startled Liana, but she quickly understood the deeper meaning of his words.
With one hand in her pocket and the other holding the phone, a playful smile crossed Lianaâs lips, âOh...â
