Chapter 234 The stick hit really felt like a wham on Eleanor, scaring her to step back. Accidentally, she stepped on a rock.
Almost falling, a slender hand behind her caught her waist and steadied her just in time.
She looked back and saw Bemardâs cold gaze on Ethan, making her jittery.
Bernardâs status was something Ethan probably wouldnât want to mess with She quickly broke free from Bernard and, gathering her courage, took Ethanâs hand.
*...Honey, stop hitting, letâs go home. â
Honey?
Ethan put away the stick, giving her an unhappy sideâeye, as if saying, âWhat the hell are you babbling about?â
At this point, Eleanor couldnât care less. Grasping his arm, she tiptoed and whispered in his ear, âJust play alongâ
Ethan, however, uncooperatively replied. âYou got yourself into this trouble, figure it out on your ownâ
Eleanor, growing anxious, whispered, âIf he takes me away, itâs like taking away my sisterâs heart.â
Ethan had no way He put down the baseball bat, finally compromising. âLetâs go.â
Seeing him cooperate, Eleanor held his arm tightly and turned to leave.
âDonât go!â
A cold voice made Ethan stop in his tracks.
Eleanor tugged at his arm, telling him, âJust ignore himâ
But Ethan didnât want to leave anymore. He turned around and spun the baseball bat in his hand, then looked at Bernard with a raised chin.
âYou hurt my wife, I let it slide, and youâre still riding high. Who the hell do you think you are?â
Bernard didnât take Ethan seriously at all. He walked up to Eleanor and extended his hand. âCome with me.â
Before Eleanor could refuse, Ethan suddenly embraced her by the shoulders, pressing her to his chest, and challenged Bernard, âOn what grounds?â
Seeing her holding Ethans arm and him holding her shoulders, both tightly pressed together, Bernard was suddenly filled with rage.
âBecause I love her!â
His voice trembled but still rang clear and bright. It seemed as if the eight years of restraint had erupted at this moment.
Seeing the look in Bernardâs eyes, Ethan seemed to realize something. He lowered his head to look at Eleanor, who he was holding.
The woman in his arms showed no emotion, as if she had just heard a joke. She smirked and shrugged it off.
Ethan did not let her go. Instead, he held his head high and told Bernard, âYouâre too late, sheâs already married to meâ
Was he too late?
Bernard sneered and yanked Eleanor away.
Pressing her shoulder, he looked down at her, âEleanor, Iâve loved you for eight years. Can you stop punishing me like this..?â
She could hit him, curse him, hate him, and never forgive him. Anything but using another man to provoke him. He couldnât take)
Eleanor scoffed in her heart, âLove me? For eight years? I had no ideaâ
Those past memories kept replaying in her mind, but there was never a trace of love, only his coldness and indifference.
He had clearly never loved her, so why claim now that he had for eight years? Who would believe this?
She would rather die than have anything to do with him as Eleanor. Her face remained emotionless.
looked at him coldly, âSir, tonightâs farce should end. Weâve reached our limit of tolerance for youâ
With that, she ruthlessly pushed away his hand on her shoulder and walked towards Ethan, âLetâs go.â
Ethanâs gaze chifted, taking hold of Eleanorâs hand as they walked towards the car, This time, Bernard did not stand in their way. Instead, with tearful eyes, he watched the two of them hand in hand, walking away.
