Chapter 903 Bernard rolled up the car window, turned his head, and said with a cool indifference, âTomorrow at 8 am, weâll meet at the airportâ
Robin, like him, wouldnât betray the ones he wanted to protect. For Robin, that person was his mother. So even if it killed him, he wouldnât spill the beans. So letâs just keep playing this game, after all, no risk, no reward In five months, Bernard would be off to God knows where, his fate uncertain But before that, heâd clear the deck of any threats to Eleanor Only when she was safe and under the protection of the Laurence family would he be able to leave with peace of mind.
And the biggest threat to Eleanor right now was Robinâs mother. Next in line was Evelyn, who was fighting Eleanor over the kid. Once heâd dealt with Robinâs mother, Evelyn was next. He would clear the path for Eleanor, no matter what.
Robin had assumed Bernard would reject his proposition outright. However, Bernardâs swift agreement took him aback. What was he planning now?
Burned once, Robin swiftly pieced together the potential implications of Bernardâs plan. Yet, still in the crosshairs, he refrained from exposing Bernardâs machinations. His priority was to get back, alert his mother to brace herself. That held more importance than engaging Bernard in a battle of wits.
With this rationale, Robin chose to play along. âYouâre welcome to use my private jet Bernard, already disembarked, swiveled around, casting a downward glance at Robin, âMr. Spencer, you appear to forget, the game is never played on your terms â With a final statement, he forcefully shut the car door From the exterior, a chilling voice echoed, âThe car gets dirty, so feel free to abandon it.â
Elbert was throttling his motorcycle at a breathâtaking pace, making a beeline for the Fiord Roundabout.
He slammed the brakes, a plume of black smoke unfurling in his wake as he screeched to a halt.
Removing his helmet. Elbert twisted around to check on Eleanor, âEleanor, are you alright?â
Eleanor gave her head a shake, and once her sense of balance restored, she gestured to Elbert, âIâm okay, Iâll dismount now...â
She grabbed hold of the rail and climbed down from the high motorcycle. The moment her feet touched the ground, she let out a sigh of relief-
The motorcycle had been going too fast, it had scared the living daylights out of her. She was never going to ride it again, it was just too terrifying.
Elbert saw her pale face and the queasy expression on her face and couldnât help but chuckle.
âEleanor, you really canât handle it. What are you going to do next time Bernard and I race, and you have to ride with me?â
Yes, Elbert had it all planned out.
Waiting for the right moment, he would challenge Bernard to another race. Loser slaps the winner four times.
With his riding skills, there was no way he was going to lose to old man Bernard again.
Twentyâyearâold Elbert was convinced that Bernardâs win last time was just a fluke.
Just as he was mulling this over, his phone started buzzing nonâstop.
He took out his phone, saw it was a call from Robin, and quickly answered, âHelloâ
âSo you were the one who helped Eleanor escape from the cafe?â
âYeah, things got pretty hairy there. I was worried something might happen to her, so I helped her get away...â
âYou idiot!â
An earâsplitting shout came from the other end of the line, tinged with a note of exhaustion.
Elbert held the phone away from his ear, waiting until Robin had vented before bringing it back.
âSheâs my cousin, of course Iâm going to protect her...â
His unrepentant attitude made Robin so angry he pushed away the bodyguardâs hand Heâd planned to kidnap Eleanor, but ended up getting kidnapped by Bernard instead.
Given Bernardâs intricate scheme, it was understandable that Nathan had failed. But what he just couldnât wrap his head around was why Elbert had helped Eleanor escape âElbert, you knew my mother wanted to see Eleanor. Why didnât you just take her to the G country after you helped her escape?â
âWell... I needed her consent, didnât I? Canât just drag her off...â
Elbert said in a wronged tone, âYou know I donât do that sort of thing anymore.â
Robin was so angry it hurt, he almost started bleeding again, âYouâ

He clenched his teeth, but didnt let it out. Some things Elbert couldnât know, so he couldnât have warned him in advance. Blaming him now would only give himself away.
Even though Nathan had failed, Bernard agreeing to bring Eleanor to see his mother the next day could be considered a âsuccessâ of sorts Chapter 90
