Chapter 880 Bemard closed his eyes, not wanting to continue the conversation. âGet out.â
Blake sat there, staring blankly at Bemard. âIf you donât agree to a divorce, then I canât help you hide the fact that you have half of the Pine familyâs bloodâ
Beck had agreed to keep this secret because he gave her 10% of the shares. Now that Bernard has taken back the shares, she definitely wonât let it go if she finds out that Bernard isnât getting a divorce or dealing with Eleanor, sheâll spill the beans Then what would Bernardâs position be in the Laurence family?
Blake was determined to prevent Bernard from following in his fatherâs footsteps. He was open to Cedricâs advice, willing to temporarily set aside the longstanding grudges between the Pine and Laurence families. However, ethical concerns couldnât be ignored. If this secret were to be revealed, it would undoubtedly bring ndicule upon them Furthermore, Blake was convinced that if these two individuals were to have a child, the childâs health would be compromised. Their union was simply not feasible.
Yet, Bernard boldly asserted that even if she were his sister, he wanted to be with her. This madness surpassed even that of his fatherâs actions As Blake sat there, awaiting Bernardâs response, he was met with silence. It seemed that Bernard disregarded these concerns entirely.
With a sigh, Blake rose from his seat. Upon reaching the door, he paused and glanced back at Bernard. âThink about it.â
In the living room, Eleanor and Cedric observed Blakeâs somber expression as he departed. They surmised that the conversation had not gone well Blake looked exhausted. He was swaying as he walked, like he was about to fall. Cedric immediately stood up to help him.
âGrandpa, are you okay?â
Blake raised his hand and waved it off.
Clearly, he didnât want him to know what the secret was, so Cedric didnât ask any further âIâll take you homeâ
Blake nodded, and with Cedricâs help, he left Fiord Roundabout.
A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Seeing them leave, Eleanor, whose arm was bandaged, walked into the study.
Bernard was slumped on the sofa, lifeless.
She hurried over âHoney, whatâs wrong?â
Hearing her voice, Bernard slowly opened his eyes and looked at her arm. He touched her arm. âWhat did Liana say?â
Eleanor told him the truth. âLiana said itâs just a flesh wound. It will be fine with some pintment.â
Bernard seemed relieved. âIf you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediatelyâ
Eleanor nodded. Seeing his pale face, she asked, âHoney, are you okay?â
Looking into her clear eyes, Bernard didnât know how to respond, so he just held herjoghtly. He held her as if he was afraid he would lose her, as if he wanted to meld her into his body.
Whenever he held her like this, it meant he was troubled. This unease came from his conversation with Blake. But she didnât know what they had discussed.
Eleanor held him tightly, resting her chin on his shoulder. âDear, if you have any problems, you must tell me. Donât just tough it out alone.â
Dear...
Bernard gave a bitter smile. He was overwhelmed with emotions. He lowered his head and kissed her neck gently.
His kiss was passionate, moving from her collarbone up to her lips. He tasted her sweet breath, as if he had lost his sanity.
Eleanor was breathless from his kiss, her body under his control.
Soon, they were both undressed, and he entered her.
Suddenly, Bernard felt a wave of guilt. He stared into Eleanorâs dazed eyes and started laughing.
