Chapter 603 She initially thought Bernard was just dropping her off at Haileyâs villa and then head off to the Lawrence Group To her surprise, he followed her into the villa Seeing Bernard, her nanny Marina was over the moon She welcomed him into the living room as if he were her own son in law âMr. Laurence, please make yourself at home 11 whip up some coffee for you Marina cast a glance at Bernard before encouraging Eleanor with a thumbsâup and a look that said âYou go, girl Eleanor rubbed her forehead slightly and walked over to Bernard, âBernard Thave a gift for you, let me fetch It.â
Bernard lounged on the sofa with his legs crossed elegantly He broke into a smile upon hearing about the gift, âSureâ
As Eleanor headed to the study. Bernard dialed Haley, who was working at a nightclub.
Just as he hung up, Eleanor rushed out from the study, âMarina, have you seen my blueprint that was in the study?â
Marina, who was brewing coffee in the kitchen, poked her head out to answer, âDidnât Mr. Laurence take that blueprint?â
Eleanor turned to Bernard on the sofa, âYou took my design for the Jared Group Headquarters?â
Bernard then realized that the gift she wanted to give him was the blueprint, âYes, I took it and have already started using it for developmentâ
Eleanor paused for a second, then recalled the news about the reconstruction of Jared Group Headquarters and finally pieced it together. âYou were still mad at me back then, why would you use my design?â
Bernard casually pulled her into his arms, 1 promised to use your design and to submit it to the competition. I always keep my word, regardless of the circumstancesâ
Helping her succeed in the architecture field mattered more to him than his personal feelings Eleanor felt a lump in her throat and buried her head into his chest, whispering, Bernard, youâre too kind.....
A smile flashed in Bernards eyes as he patted her back gently, I forgot to tell you, your design made it through the first round and is currently being reâevaluated Iâm sure youâll hear about A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

it scon Eleanor was still overwhelmed with gratitude and instantly felt a surge of anxiety hearing this, âIs it for that international architecture competition?â
He nodded and Eleanor began to panic, 1 canât do this, I have no experience. If I make it to the finals, Iâd have to present my design concept on stage....*
She always got nervous on stage. She would always be unable to speak, let alone at such a grand event like the international architecture competition. All the participants were renowned architects What if she made a fool of herself?
Bernard let go of her waist, pinching her smooth cheek, Whatâs there to fear when Iâm here?â
He had a knack for putting people at ease, and Eleanor felt a great sense of comfort around him. However, he couldnât take her place on stage She had to face this herself.
Eleanor clung onto his suit collar, gently stroking it, trying to calm herself down. She had only passed the first round, the results of the reâevaluations were still pending. It would be a bit premature if she started worrying about the performance now. She might not even make it past the reâevaluation stage Thinking of this, Eleanor was no longer as nervous Being a newbie and making it to the finals was a long shot.
Once she calmed down, she looked up at Bernard, âMy original gift was the blueprint, but since you took it ahead of time, the element of surprise is gone. Let me find another gift for you.... Bernard answered with a smile. His bright eyes watched Eleanor think about what to gift him.
Seeing her distressed look yet still indecisive, Bernard cleared his throat and suggested. Thereâs a new estate in the cityâs east central area. I bought it as a wedding house three years ago, but havenât had time to decorate it. How about a design for the wedding house as a gift?â
