Chapter 1276 âOnly by unmasking the puppet master can we destroy the Area Opaca.â
Only by destroying the Area Opaca can the members of Siren Organization live in peace forever. Because the Area Opacaâs goal is to annihilate every member of Siren Organization, including Bernard. Thatâs why they couldnât afford to ignore this threat.
âSo, did you find him?â
Evan shook his head, his eyes filled with self-reproach. If only he had made the right choice, they might still have a chance.
âI thought about staying, continuing to tackle missions until I found the puppet master. But when Bernard told me to leave, I chose to do so.â
Evan knew Bernard wanted him to come back, to bring a message to Eleanor. Bernard wanted Eleanor to keep faith and live on. So, Evan had to choose between continuing a suicidal mission and delivering the message. He chose the latter, knowing it was cowardly but it was Bernardâs last wish.
âHe wanted me to keep it a secret from you. Iâm sorry I couldnât.â
Eleanor understood. She nodded, her fingers slowly tightening on her knees.
Her heart was filled with grief, which was slowly being replaced by rage. This hatred spread from her heart to her face, gradually freezing her soft features.
Before Evan could leave, Katharine, having recovered from unconsciousness, forced herself back to Fiord Roundabout.
Without a word, she stormed in and slapped Eleanor. The slap was so strong it knocked Eleanor to the ground, âYour husband caused Calebâs death!â Eleanor covered her burning cheek, her eyes red and blurry with tears as she looked at Katharine. Seeing Katharineâs face stained with tears and her body trembling with sobs, Eleanor slowly lowered her head.
Evan couldnât face her, nor could she face Katharine. Even though Caleb didnât die because of her, he died because of Bernard.
No one would forgive someone who caused the death of their loved one, even bystanders would lose all reason out of fear of death.
Eleanor didnât blame Katharine, she only felt sympathy for her. After all, Calebâs death was so tragic. He didnât even know he was going to be a father when he died...
A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
ï¤Chapter 1275 âCaleb said that once he finished his last task with Bernard, he would come back to marry me.ââ
Katharine looked at Eleanor, who was laying on the ground, crying uncontrollably, âHe said he would marry me! But because of your husband, heâll never come back!â
Her heart-wrenching scream caused Eleanor to turn her head away, burying her face in her arm.
Bernard also said he would come back, but he didnât. Maybe... he never will.
She lay on the ground, curled up, her desolation even more heartbreaking than Katharineâs hysteria.
Evan wanted to help Eleanor up, but Robin Spencer beat him to it.
Robin grabbed Eleanorâs arm, helped her up, then turned to Katharine.
âHer husband didnât come back either.â
âI know her husband didnât come back either, I just...â Katharine touched her stomach, Caleb didnât know I was pregnant with his child. I feel regretful, so! didnât know what to do.â
She stared at Eleanorâs slapped red cheek, her eyes filled with pain and helplessness.
Both of them lost their loved ones. She could vent her anger on Eleanor, but Eleanor couldnât.
Eleanor could only bear it, endure it. After all, it was her husband who caused the death of someone elseâs loved one.
Katharine blamed Bernard, but Eleanor was innocent.
Perhaps realizing that hitting Eleanor was wrong, Katharine muttered an apology and ran out.
Robin let go of Eleanorâs arm, gave her a deep look, then followed Katharine out.
