Chapter 711 Eleanor had bolted three times already, but each time she was tracked down and hauled back. Occasionally she would look over her shoulder at Gianna who was casually failing her Deanor noticed Gianna was constantly on the phone seemingly discussing something Howeym, she wasnât close enough to make out what she was saying, only catching Bernardâs name here and there She had no clue it Bernard had agreed to their demands or what the current situation was All the knew was she didnt want to be a burden to him Staring at the raging sea, she jumped in without a second thought after a few moments.
She had said before, if anyone tried to use her as leverage against Bernard she wouldnât be his bunden Glanna was busy trying to convince her adoptive father not to threaten Berard anymore. Seeing Eleanor jump into the sea she turned as white as a shee âEleanorâ she screamed, dropping her phone and ready to dive in after her, but Elbert beat her to it Elbert Jumped in and vigorously swam towards the figure being swept away by the waves Gianna, still on the beach, could initially see two figures, one in front of the other, bobbing on the surface of the water.
But the waves were too high and the wind too strong, tossing them about until the two figures were lost from sight.
Witnessing this, Gianna felt her heart stop. She fell doomed Just then, several helicopters appeared in the starry night sky.
The blinding lights from the helicopters illuminated the darkness They landed one after the other on the beach with a thunderous noise Bemard, weaning white gloves a gun m hand, and military boots briskly stepped out of the helicopter The commanding auta radiating from this cool and noble man left Giannaâs men too scared to even move The situation had taken an unexpected tum. Their plan had been to release Benardâs wife after Mr. Penrod and Mr. Law reached an agreement. How did things spiral out of control so quickly?
Mr. Law discovered that his wife had jumped into the sea, they would likely face dire consequences themselves. The realization left Giannaâs men increasingly frightened, their fear manifesting as cold sweat However they dared not make a move in front of Mr. Law.
Bernard scanned the area anxiously, unable to spot Eleanor instead he found Glanna kneeling on the beach, her head down, refusing to meet his gaze Sensing something amiss. Bernard quickly approached her âWhere is she?â he demanded, his voice tinged with restrained anger.
Gianna involuntarily shivered, not out of fear of Bemard, but due to the overwhelming guilt she felt for her actions, which seemingly led to Eleanorâs demise. âShe, she jumped into the seaâ she confessed Bernardâs tall figure stiffened, as if he had misheard. He looked at Gianna in disbelief, questioning her, âWhat. what did you say?â
Meanwhile, on the other side of the beach, Elbert managed to swim to the shore, pulling Eleanor along. Choking on seawater, she began coughing intensely, as if the were about to cough up her lungs Exhausted, Elbert collapsed onto the sand, gasping for air heavily After catching their breath, Elben sat up and looked at Eleanor âYou cant escape. You should have asked for my help instead of trying to escape into the sea Had it not been for his good swimming skills, she might have already drowned Eleanor clutched her painful chest, not looking up to respond âYouâre Giannaâs friend, you wouldnât help me.â
âSister, how would you know I wouldnât help if you didnât ask?â
When she heard the word âsisterâ, she stopped wringing her clothes Slowly, she lifted her head to look at Elbert Under the moonlight, his mixedârace features were prominent and deep A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Although he was soaking wet, his elegant demeanor remained unaffected Staring at his face. Eleanor asked him, âWhy do you call me sister?â
Elbert propped himself up with both hands behind him and raised an eyebrow at her, âItâs just a term of address Besides, Iâm only twenty, thereâs no way youâre older than meâ
Though it was just a term of address. Eleanor strangely felt a sense of familiarity, as if the man sitting on the beach was truly like a
