Chapter 91 Eleanor thought for a moment and figured that if she left the lounge, she might bump into Bernard, so she shook her head.
Jason couldnât help but give her a helpless look, âIâll go grab you some food.â
Despite Eleanorâs protest, he got up and left right away.
Jason had a special status, and the Laurence Group treated him accordingly. The restaurant he went to was the same one Bernard was in.
Faced with a dazzling array of food, Jason didnât know what to pick.
He simply took out his phone and called Eleanor, âWhat do you like to eat?â
Eleanor said she didnât want to eat anything, but Jason persuaded her, âYou have to eat something. You have to take care of me in the afternoon.â
She had no choice but to say, âJust food thatâs easy to digest.â
Jason gently asked, âSo Iâll get you some fish, veggies, and yogurt. What about the main course?â
âNo need, thatâs enough.â
âAlright, wait for me.â
Seeing her so obedient, Jason smiled and hung up the phone. Just as he was about to get the food, a chilly. voice came from behind him, âJason is pretty busy, attending the bidding meeting while taking care of his girlfriend.â
Jason turned around and saw Bernard standing there.
His tall figure, although similar to Jasonâs, had a different sense of oppression, which made Jason feel uncomfortable.
Jason looked at him and said softly, âMr. Laurence, donât joke with me. How could I bring my girlfriend to a bidding meeting?â
Bernard raised his eyebrows slightly, âSo, if Ms. Shultz isnât your girlfriend, then what is she?â
Jason didnât like his arrogant tone but still patiently answered, âThereâs nothing between her and me, itâs just...â
âJust what?â Asked Bernard.
The eagerness in his tone made Jason a bit puzzled, âWhy are you so concerned about me and Ms. Shultz?â Bernardâs face was emotionless, with a hint of a smile, âI just want to see how youâd accept a woman who once was with Josef.â
He even mocked in the end, âArenât you afraid of getting some weird diseases?â
Hearing these words, Jasonâs face darkened, âItâs very ungentlemanly for you to belittle a woman like this.â
Bernard walked up to Jason and stared at him coldly, âSo what do you think is gentlemanly?â
Jason didnât answer but gave him a scrutinizing look. âYou always seem to be targeting me.â
At the bidding meeting, in the restaurant, even at their first meeting, he was always targeting Jason.
He hadnât seen Bernard before, and even less likely to have offended him. Why would he act like this to him?
Chapter 91 Bernardâs face wavered slightly but soon returned to normal, âIâm just afraid youâd be deceived.â
âDo you mean Ms. Shultz is deceiving me?â Jason asked the doubts in his heart.
Bernard didnât answer, his expression somewhat arrogant.
But Jason knew he had guessed correctly and said, âYou might be misunderstanding something. Iâve known. Ms. Shultz for many years. I know her best, and she wonât deceive me.â
His tone got heavier after the last sentence, as if he was saying it to himself.
Back then, she had knelt at the doorstep of the Clowers family, begging him to come out and see her. He found her annoying at that time. After some investigation, he felt that she was very scheming, and he ignored her after that.
But the past few days of getting along made him realize that Eleanor wasnât like that.
Jasonâs words made a hint of anger appear on Bernardâs cold face, âHave you known each other for many years?â

Jason didnât notice anything wrong and answered softly, âYou could say weâve known each other since childhood.â
It was just that he had lost his memory and didnât remember their past, otherwise he wouldnât be clueless about everything.
