Chapter 933 Bernard set Eleanor down, his long fingers gripping her hand, securing it on the railing Eleanor turned her head, questioning him, âWhat are you up lo?â
Bernard gently began to undress Eleanor, his body pressing against her back as he reached to switch off the light. The room descended into darkness, with only the soft glow of decorative lights on the floor illuminating their surroundings Eleanor attempted to turn around and face him, but he firmly held her waist, lifting her up. It finally dawned on her what his intentions were The realization hit her hard.
In fact, if Bernard hadnât supported her waist, she would have stumbled and fallen. This was crossing a line, far beyond what she had anticipated or desired.
âCaleb wouldnât approve,â his voice resonated coolly in her ear.
Eleanor cursed inwardly Why was he bringing up Caleb now? Was it a deliberate move to intensify the tension between them?
She turned her head, attempting to push him away, but he kissed her neck fiercely âMmm...â
Unable to control herself, she let out a sound, quickly adding to cover her embarrassment Why would he approve?â
The tone of her first âmmm and the second one differed, Bernard catching onto the difference. A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, âWant to know why?â
Eleanor vehemently shook her head, âNo, not at all...â
Disregarding her protest, Bernard released his grip on her, only to lift her up again.
A deep shade of red spread across Eleanorâs face.
Bernard chuckled softly Exhausted, Eleanor collapsed onto the bed, feeling utterly drained. She lacked the energy to even lift a finger. Bernard gently carried her to the bathroom, where she washed up before he carried her back to the bedroom.

Lying beneath the comfort of a soft down quilt, Eleanor fought to keep her weary eyes open. Turning to the man holding her, she asked, âCan you finally tell me why Caleb wouldnât marry Katharine?â
Bernard was taken aback by her sudden interest in Caleb and Katharine. Raising an eyebrow slightly, he replied, âCaleb simply said he doesnât like her.â
Eleanor knew Caleb got closer to Katharine for her sake, which was why she was so concerned. But she didnât expect Caleb not to like Katharine, however...
âKatharine seems to really like Caleb âCaleb doesnât like her, so nothing else matters.â
Eleanor didnt reply.
âI think Caleb might like Kathanne, otherwise why would he get close to her?â
Bernard lowered his eyes, looking at Eleanor.
âHe was just doing his job. Besides, men and women are different. â
Eleanor looked up, gazing intently into Bernardâs eyes.
âSo, would you sleep with someone else just for a job?â.
