Chapter 955: Chapter 955

Chapter 955 After pulling an all–nighter solving problems, Bernard lifted his gaze from the computer screen and spotted Eleanor, cozily wrapped in a blanket, snoozing away on the sofa.

Sunlight poured over her, casting a golden glow, a picture of summer enchantment that stirred the heart, and brought a smile to Bernard’s eyes.

He kept his gaze on Eleanor, and after a while, he got up and walked over to her, gently poking her cheek with his long fingers Wakey wakey”

She swatted his hand away and turned her back to him “Shush, I’m sleepy”

Bernard patiently bent down “Didn’t we agree that you’d reward me once I finished the problems?”

In her half–awake state, Eleanor’s heart raced, but she kept feigning sleep “Babe, I’m so tired, tonight’s...”

With a light laugh, Bernard responded, “Sweetheart, if you delay the deal, you owe me double, you know”

Eleanor couldn’t care less and nodded “Double it is then.”

When night fell, she continued to make excuses and play coy.

Seeing through her tactics, Bernard reached over and indulgently ruffled her hair.

“So, you better be ready and stay put at home”

His voice was somewhat cold, sending a shiver down Eleanor’s spine, uncertain of the horrors that awaited her that night....

After intentionally putting some pressure on her, Bernard left the study room, freshened up in the bathroom, and hurriedly dashed off to the Lawrence Group.

While in the car. Bernard received a video call from Caleb “Sir, I want to take a five–month leave to spend time with Katharine. Is that okay?”

Having planned for Caleb to start a family, Bernard naturally agreed.

“If you want to leave the Siren Organization, I can...”

“No need for now, just these five months without any assignments would do.”

Upon hearing “five months, Bernard’s smile faded.

“Why five months?”

“Well, Katharine suggested we try dating for five months, and then maybe consider marriage”

To avoid making his boss worry, Caleb chose to fib.

Bernard was good at making connections, and quickly thought about that secret place.

“That place, you can’t just go as you please, don’t make hasty decisions.”

Sir, rest assured, being with the one I love, I treasure my life even more.”

The love for life shining in his eyes somewhat eased Bernard’s doubts.

After hanging up on Caleb, Bernard shifted his gaze from the phone screen to the passing trees outside the car window....

Now that Wendy’s problem had been resolved, and Caleb had found his place, and Aidyn was also about to get hitched, all they needed was to have Scott stick around to protect Eleanor Everything he had planned was almost done, now he just needed to sort out Evelyn Ziegler’s issue and some business projects, then he could head to the secret place with peace of mind On top of that, it’d be best to make Cedric the president of the Lawrence Group as soon as possible so he could protect Eleanor for life. This was the worst–case scenario, but Bernard knew he had to do it
