Chapter 424 Eleanor shot him a glance, speaking calmly, âBernard, if I have a baby, will you let me go?â
The man stiffened. He kept his head low, not daring to meet her eyes.
Eleanor continued, âI can have a baby, but after that I hope you can set me freeâ
Berard felt a chill running down his spine He lifted his head slowly, staring at the woman lying in the hospital bed. The sight of her pale, bloodless face made his heart ache so much that he could hardly breathe After a long while, he reached out a trembling hand to touch Eleanorâs face.
âEleanor, you donât have to have a baby... Iâll let you go.â
Bemard struggled to get the words out.
His eyes were filled with lingering affection and tears of regret. He didnât want to let her go, but he had no choice but to set her free He had hurt her, right from the beginning, possibly damaging her chances of becoming a mother.
It was a mistake that could never be made up..
No wonder happiness had always cluded him.
He had brought all this upon himself.
He deserved it.
Eleanor stared at Bernard, surprised at his pale face.
He actually agreed to let her go? And she didnât even have to have a baby? Was it because she had been unconscious?
Eleanor didnât understand why he agreed, but it did lift her spints a bit. âSo when can leave?â
Bemard gave a bitter smile. âOnce youâre fully recovered, Iâll drive you to the airportâ
At that, Eleanor nodded slightly and closed her eyes. She was too weak to say anything more.
Seeing how much weight she had lost in the past few days, Bernard felt overwhelmed by guilt He held Eleanorâs hand gently, kissed the back of her hand, with his eyes filled with regret.
âEleanor, Iâm sorry. Iâm the one who had you take that medication, which made it difficult for you to conceive.â
It was only right that she should leave him.
Eleanor wasnât really asleep. She heard every word he said.
No wonder she hadnât gotten pregnant during all the time they were together.
She must have taken too many contraceptive pills in the past.
A wave of sadness washed over Eleanor.
She was an orphan. Though she had found her sister, but her sister had passed away leaving her an orphan once again.
She had always longed to start her own family when she grew up.
She needed children to accompany her so she wouldnât be lonely anymore, but now Was she unable to ever have her own child?
The pain suddenly hit her heart, leaving her breathless.
Her hand clenched the sheets tightly.
Well, thatâs life. She should stop hoping for these things and just focus on her designs.
She would, like her sister, leave her mark in this world through her architectural designs, proving her existence. That would be more meaningful.
She knew Bernard didnât tell her directly and chose to let her go because he couldnât face her, but Eleanor didnât blame him.
Some things were destined from the start, and nobody was to blame. They were never from the same world.
