Chapter 1433 He was restraining himself like a caged beast, his eyes burning a deep crimson as he fixed his gaze on Eleanor.
âHoney, after the babyâs born and youâve recovered, I might not be able to hold back anymore.â
Being a man used to appeasing his every whim, Bernard required an intense frenzy of experiences to attain true satisfaction.
Gentle caresses like this were merely a small consolation, but they left him feeling all the more pent-up.
Eleanor lifted her hazy eyes, looking into Bernardâs desire-laden gaze.
Suddenly, she remembered a night of being tossed and turned seven times and shivered involuntarily.
âCan we not?â
At her words, he deliberately paused, raising his long fingers to capture her chin.
âDo you want this, or not?â
Already stirred by desire, Eleanor, slightly embarrassed, stubbornly said she didnât.
Bernardâs eyes became even redder, âHoney, say ânoâ one more time.â
Just as Eleanor opened her mouth to speak, the tall and proud man leaned in again, kissing her in that extraordinarily sensitive spot.
âMmm...â She couldnât help but make a sound, inappropriate as it was, signaling her surrender.
âStop, please... I canât take it anymore...â
Bernard moved his ear closer, nuzzling her neck, âHoney, I want to hear you ask for it.â
Eleanor felt it wasnât the act itself she couldnât handle, but Bernardâs teasing persistence..
âI wonât say it.â
He wanted what he wanted, and yet he insisted on making her voice it aloud. He might have a thick skin, but she was mortified, âAre you sure?â
âYes, Iâm sure!â
âAlright...â
It wasnât long before Eleanor capitulated.
Clinging to Bernardâs waist, she lowered her head, âI want you...â
Bernardâs lips curled into an indulgent smile, âAlright...â
Two times in a roll, Eleanor was exhausted. It was Bernard who carried her to another clean, dry bed where she finally drifted off into a deep sleep.
Bernard didnât sleep; instead, he held his wife in his arms, gently patting her back, coaxing her into dreams. It wasnât that he didnât want to sleep; he simply couldnât. Partly because his passion was not yet spent, and partly because he feared these moments were too fleeting.
The happier Bernard felt, the more prone he was to worry. He feared what would become of Eleanor and their child if he were to leave this world first.
His eyes drifted toward the window where the moonlight cast a serene glow on the sill, a glow that couldnât reach the depths of his troubled heart.
The next day at noon, Cedric called, and Eleanor, with bleary eyes, looked toward the man on the phone.
âWhat? Sheâs in labor?â
Hearing about the labor, Eleanor immediately guessed it was Hailey, and signaled Bernard to put the call on speaker. Cedricâs frantic voice filled the room, âYeah, her water broke. Sheâs been rushed to the delivery room. What should I do? What can I do?â âI donât know.â Bernardâs response was nonchalant, which only served to calm Cedric for a moment.
In his life, he had never encountered such an indifferent person! His wife was giving birth, and his brother was this composed? Clearly, he had forgotten that Hailey was his wife, not Bernardâs.
Cedric, donât panic, Eleanor said, more anxiously than Bernard âNotify your family to help, and Bernard and I will be right there.
Chapter 1433 Cedric, soothed by Eleanor, felt a momentary warmth and reassurance, âMy parents are already on their way, and my sister is coming, as well as my little sister, and our cousins...â
Cedric was clearly in a state of disarray, rattling off names, and Eleanor tried to interrupt him several times without success.
A bit helpless, Bernard stretched out his long finger and ended the call, then pulled back the blankets and fetched clothes for Eleanor to wear.
A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
ï¤Chapter 1432 âThe Laurence family wonât let anything happen to Hailey. You can rest easy.â
Cedric might be unreliable, but Veronica was dependable. With her there, Hailey was sure to be fine.
As Bernard predicted, they had just boarded their private jet when Cedric called with good news, âHaileyâs given birth!â
âWhat? Sheâs already given birth?!â
Eleanor and Bernard were surprised, considering they had only been traveling from the hotel to the airport for forty minutes.
âThe doctor said Haileyâs in good health, so the birth was quick.â
âAnd how is Hailey? Is she alright?â
While Eleanor was happy for Hailey, she also immediately worried about her health.
âDonât worry, sheâs fine. Sheâll be out soon.â
Relieved that Hailey was okay, Eleanor asked the next important question.
âIs it a boy or a girl?â
Now that they knew the mother was fine, the next concern was the gender of the babies.
âShe had twins, a boy and a girl, isnât that amazing?!â
Hearing about the twins, the couple glanced at each other and Eleanor responded.
âAmazing indeed.â
âThatâs my wife, of course sheâs amazing!â
âEleanor, let me tell you, my wife, she...â Cedric began to boast endlessly about his wife. Annoyed, Bernard took the phone and said coldly, âI hope they donât resemble you at all.â
