Chapter 378
His voice had a certain charm to it, almost like he was purposely trying to seduce her
But Eleanor didn’t even bat an eyelid, shaking her head gently at him
“This has nothing to do with her”
She had made it clear in the hospital that she was rejecting him because loving him was just too
exhausting.
Over the years, there was never any real give and take between them, just a constant game of doubts
and suspicions.
Even though all of these were due to misunderstandings, the pain and despair she experienced were
real
That painful past made her afraid of love and scared to love again
Bernard tried to find a hint of jealousy in her eyes, but there was none. It didn’t seem like it was

He pulled away slightly, his eyes full of disappointment. Seems like you couldn’t care less who I’m
with.”
Eleanor glanced at him, gathering her courage to confess, “I used to care”
The word “used to made Bernard realize that the gap between them was due to the passage of time
But time can’t be rewound, no matter how much he regretted it, he couldn’t go back.
The disappointment in Bernard’s eyes slowly turned into sadness, his handsome face turning pale.
He withdrew his hand, and turned around, staring at the descending numbers in the elevator with icy
eyes
Watching his cold and solitary figure. Eleanor clutched her hand, explaining. 1 thought you were with
Teresa while I was living in your villa, it didn’t feel right. That’s why lacked. I hope you don’t
misunderstand.”
Bernard didn’t turn around or say anything as if he didn’t hear her
Not until the elevator doors opened did he turn around, grab her wrist, and pull her out
He forcefully pulled Eleanor into the car. Disregarding her wishes, he buckled her seat belt and quickly
started the car
As the car raced through the streets of W City. Eleanor turned her head slightly and glanced at Bernard
His face was cold and silent, as d he was mad at her
Eleanor was a bit scared of this side of him but still gathered her courage to say, “Can L… Can I not go
to your villa?”
In a foreign land, she had run into trouble twice, and both times Bernard came to her ald
They were supposed to be free of each other, but now, she owed him a favor again. Hearing this
Bernard’s face darkened, he braked hard, bringing the car to a stop
Due to the inertia of the braking, Eleanors body jotted forward
Just as she was about to hit the dashboard, a strong hand supported her forehead

Eleanor slowly looked up at Bernard, who had already withdrawn his hand
His expression was indifferent, devoid of any emotion
Bernard stared ahead stent for a few seconds before pulling out a pack of cigarettes from the car
He took one out, rolled it between his fingers for a few seconds, and finally it it
He rolled down the window, rested his elbow on it, and quietly smoked
From Eleanor’s perspective, all she could see was his clear profile and the cigarette in his hand
through the wafting smoke.
She took a glance and looked away thinking that Bernard had stopped by the roadside to satisfy his
nicotine cravings
The silence in the car was suffocating Eleanor felt restless. She wanted to get out of the car for some
fresh air and couldn’t help but press the door button
Hearing the slight noise, the man looked up at the rearview mirror, just in time to see her trying to open
the car door
