Chapter 80 Brenda asked annoyedly. âWhat are you doing here?â
Eleanor guessed that she might be Ryanâs sister, so she wasnât surprised by her arrogant behavior.
She replied flatly. âIn the restroom, of course Iâm here to take a rest Her tone wasnât good, as she didnât want to tolerate people who disrespected her anymore.
Otherwise, sheâd be like Amanda, tolerating it without making them feel guilty, but only making them even more unreasonable.
Brenda was even more unhappy when she was refuted.
She said, âI think youâre hiding on purpose to make Jason worry about you. Donât think that just because youâre Jasonâs date for tonight, you can become his girlfriend! Jason belongs to me!â
Brendaâs warning made Eleanor frown slightly.
What did her hiding here have to do with Jason? She was trying to avoid Bernard.
Was Ms. Mallory too sensitive?
Eleanor didnât explain, just looked at Brenda indifferently.
âMs. Mallory, with Mr. Clowersâ status, I doubt you could be his girlfriend either. Thereâs no need to boast in front of me.â Replied Eleanor.
Jason was supposed to marry Sigrid, and Brendaâs status was far inferior to Sigridâs. She shouldnât be dreaming.
However, Ms. Mallory didnât think so. She raised her hand and slapped Eleanorâs face with all her strength.
âIâm the daughter of the Mallory family! Do I need to show off in front of you?â Said Brenda.
This slap caught Eleanor by surprise.
She didnât expect that the seemingly weak Ms. Mallory would actualy slap someone. She was caught off guard and could only endure this slap.
She initially wanted to retaliate immediately, but her body made her movements slow. Having been slapped just once, she was already feeling a bit dizzy.
Seeing her in this state, Brenda thought she was scared and became even more smug She said, âIâm warning you, stay away from Jason, or next time it wonât just be a slap waiting for you!â
After saying this, Brenda turned and left the bathroom.
Eleanor watched her retreating figure, and the scene in front of her suddenly became blurry.
Just as she was about to fall, she vaguely saw a man rushing in and catching her fainting body.
When she recovered, she saw that the person who had caught her was actually Bernard.
Her heart, which had stopped beating, suddenly started beating violently again, and her nervous expression appeared on her face, âMr. Laurence...â
On Bernardâs cold face, there was no expression, but his slightly furrowed brows made him look irritated and restless. He asked, âWhat happened to you?â
After calming down, Eleanor whispered, âI was just slapped by Ms Mallory and almost fainted.â
Fortunately, this time she only fainted for a few seconds and could use it as an excuse.
Bernardâs frown deepened, âFor Jason, youâre really willing to be slapped. You really love him, huh?â
His voice was full of sarcasm, and it gave off a chilling vide that made Eleanor feel uncomfortable.
As the subtle feeling towards him gradually faded, she replied indifferently, âif Mr. Clowers knew I was hit by Ms. Mallory, his impression of her would definitely be bad, so this slap is worth it.â
Bernard didnât expect her to have such a mentality, and his gaze at her became even more contemptuous.

âYou really are schemingâ Said Bernard.
He released his arm around Eleanorâs waist, took out a tissue, and slowly wiped his fingers.
This action made Eleanor feel extremely awkward. If he despised her so much, why did he help her?
