Chapter 343
Eleanor was in the ICU with severe burns on her back, her skin tissue getting infected repeatedly, and
doctors working non–stop to save her life.
Two weeks later, she finally pulled through, but the intense pain knocked her out again when she woke
up.
Liana was running around nonstop, doing everything in her power to bring Eleanor back from the brink
of death.
Bernard, watching all this from outside the door, felt his heart aching like he was suffocating.
He would rather have the acid splashed on him than have Eleanor take the hit for him.
But to repay his debt, she chose this brutal way.
With red eyes, he stared through the glass at Eleanor, who passed out from the pain, wishing he could
take it for her.
Time flew by. Liana, eyes glued to the heart monitor, let out a sigh of relief when the frequency returned
to normal.
She stepped out from another door and told Bernard and Hailey. “Ms. Shultz is out of danger now.”
Hearing this, Hailey collapsed to the floor, her emotions bottled up for two weeks suddenly pouring out
uncontroll
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiana went over and hugged Hailey, comforting her while looking at Bernard standing at the door.
She didn’t know how Bernard was feeling at the moment, but she was sure they both let out a sigh of
relief.
Two days later, Eleanor was transferred to a regular ward.
as she covered her face and cried.
Hailey bought a bunch of stuff, planning to stay by Eleanor’s bedside, but saw Bernard gently wiping
Eleanor’s cheek with a towel.
So, she put down the stuff and left.
She called Garett, but he didn’t pick up.
Hailey felt a little confused. Eleanor had been in the ICU for so long, and Garett hadn’t shown up once.
She put down her phone, sighed, and looked back at Bernard, whose eyes were full of Eleanor.
At that moment, she suddenly understood why Garett hadn’t come.
Bernard, treating her like a treasure, wiped her face and hands.
Then he put down the towel, took a cotton swab, dipped it in water, and moistened her dry lips.
He stood there by her bedside, silently taking care of her, waiting for her.
Eleanor, as if in a fog, saw both Bernard and Garett.
They stood at the edge of a cliff, both reaching out, asking her to choose.
If she chose Bernard, Garett would jump off the cliff.
If she chose Garett, Bernard would jump off the cliff.
Not knowing who to choose, she stepped back and chose to jump off the cliff herself.
She kept falling until a pair of hands caught her, and she slowly opened her eyes.
What she saw were bloodshot eyes and a tired face.
Her gaze moved down to find that the usually clean–shaven man was now unkempt with a beard.
The man, looking exhausted, let go of her hand when she woke up and told her, “You just had a
nightmare.”
Eleanor nodded lightly, looked around, and realized she was in a hospital, then remembered what had
happened.
She tried to open her dry lips but couldn’t make a sound, her throat so tight that she could only stare at
Bernard.
Her eyes conveyed her need. He immediately got up and brought her a glass of water, dipping a cotton
swab in it and putting it in her mouth.
Eleanor needed water eagerly, so she sucked the cotton swab hard, which immediately caused her
back to hurt intensely, making her break out in a cold
sweat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBernard’s face turned pale, quickly removing the cotton swab from her mouth, gently stroking her
cheek, and pityingly saying, “Eleanor, don’t force it.”
Eleanor endured the pain and held tightly to the sheets, barely saying, “Water…”
She was incredibly thirsty and wanted to drink water badly.
As she lay in bed, Bernard tried to give her water, but she couldn’t drink it.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he knelt down, took a sip of water, and kissed her lips.
He gently opened her lips and fed her the water bit by bit.
Eleanor, eyes wide, stared at the man in front of her, a little shocked
But her overwhelming thirst for water left her no time to care about anything else, so she just focused
on drinking.
Her head was tilted, and though she got some water, most of it spilled onto the pillow.
She could only take small sips, which weren’t enough. After Bernard finished feeding her, she still
stared at the water in his hand.
“More..
Hearing this, a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
He took another big sip of water and continued to feed her.
Outside the ward, Garett, sitting in a wheelchair, saw all this. A smile slowly appeared on his thin face.
