Chapter 731 Up in the castle, Veronica took Blakeâs hand and asked him, âGramps, donât you want to meet Eleanor?â
Blake Laurence, leaning on his cane, turned and snorted Whatâs so special about her that I should meet her?â
Seeing his reluctance, Veronica called him out âIf you didnât want to see her, you wouldnât have come to their weddingâ
Sure, heâs been lurking around, watching from a distance without showing his face But he sure did rush over at the drop of a hat when he got Eleanorâs text Blake scoffed. âShe better be pregnant if she wants to be a part of the Laurence familyâ
Veronica grined and said. âGramps, you mightâve forgotten. The Laurence family is now run by Bernard You donât have a say anymoreâ
Blake grt his teeth and glared at Veronica âAre you trying to get a rise out of me?â
Veronica waved it off. âOh, I wouldn1 dare. I respect you too muchâ
Blake coldly said, âDonât tell them I was here*
Being a man who cared about faces, Blake turned and left after his parting words.
Veronica watched the old manâs stubborn back and shook her head They might come back from their honeymoon with aâbaby That would put the old man in an awkward position.
As dusk fell and the wedding feast ended, the guests left. Eleanor and Bernard boarded a boat Bernard had postponed his trip for a month and bought a huge ship just for this honeymoon Rumor had it that he wanted to take her around the world But being the CEO of the Laurence Group, he only had time for a monthâlong trip Before the ship set sail, Hailey, Liana, and Nina gave them the wedding gifts theyâve prepared.
Hailey and Ninaâs gifts were two small suitcases, while Lianaâs was a big red suitcase Liana kept telling Eleanor to only open the luggage before bathing at night, not at any other time.
A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
ï¤Chapter 730 Eleanor was curious about whatâs inside, seeing Liana being so mysterious Just as sheâs about to ask Liana about the gift, Hailey shoved two big suitcases at her.
âThis big one is the dowry from the Laurences Itâs full of bank cardsâ
âEach card has a password written on it. Thereâs probably a lot of money. You can check it out when you get back.â
This other one is your clothes and the money you prepared. Make sure you take it allâ
Eleanor thought for a moment, then pushed the dowry suitcase back to Hailey âYou take this home for me. Itâs not safe to take it on the trip. And also...â
Eleanor took a deep breath. âHailey, the gifts from Garrett are too preciousâ
âWhen you get back, help me return all those transfer agreements to him.â
She already owed him too muchâmore than she can repay in this lifetime. She canât accept his gifts anymore Even if she knew itâs his intention. But what right did she have to accept his intention?
Hailey knew Eleanor wont accept. She nodded understandingly, saying. âDonât worry. Iâll make a trip to B City when I get backâ
After giving these instructions, Eleanor glanced at Nina, whoâs about to fall asleep in Georgeâs arms, and says, âPlease take good care of the childâ
Eleanor had originally planned to take Nina with her. But George, Hailey, and Liana all disagreed, and Nina herself was against it Nina was a sensible child. She knew her aunt and uncle are going on their honeymoon and doesnât want to disturb them.
So sheâs adamant about not going Hailey assured her thereâs no need to worry Bernard had assigned many professional bodyguards to protect them. There wonât be any problems.
Eleanor finally waved goodbye to them and walked towards the man waiting for her in the sunset Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END)
