Chapter 381

Such warm and humble words hit her ears, sending a jolt through her heart.

She gently turned her head to look at Bernard, who was holding her tightly from behind

His face was gaunt, pale, and his eyes were red, even the corners of his eyes were red

The Bernard the remembered was always high and mighty, full of himself

But now, he had lowered his haughty and arrogant attitude time and time again just to hold onto her

Like a star in the night sky, unreachable that now suddenly fell into dust.

Yet those stars that fell to the ground were still celestial bodies, how could they change for her?

She reached out and lightly touched the thick hair on his forehead….

Such a gentle touch made Bernard’s body stiff

He looked at the woman within his reach, seemingly seeing determination beneath her gentleness.

He instinctively tightened his hold on her Eleanor please, don’t be so heartless to me.”

His grip was so strong that it almost crushed her into his bones, forcing Eleanor to swallow back what

she wanted to say

She withdrew her hand, lowered her gaze, looked at his scarred right hand, and sighed deeply after a

long silence

“How long are the few days you mentioned?”

Bernard’s face stiffened, and his disappointed eyes it up with hope again.

Eleanor had a soft spot, she was still the same gentle and kind Eleanor

He held her with both hands, tighter this time, as if he had regained something precious, holding onto it

for dear life.

“When you find what you’ve lost, well end this, okay?”

He wanted forever, but she still had Gareft, and it was impossible for her to be with him forever

He knew it was absurd, unreasonable, and despicable to make such a request knowing that she was

married

But he would rather be a secret lover if it meant he could be with her, even if it was only for a few days.

Eleanor clenched her fists, hesitated for a few seconds, and then compromised. “Okay I promise you”

Bernard hugged her tightly and said gratefully into her ear, “Eleanor, thank you for giving me another

chance to start again…”

Eleanor’s clear eyes slowly moved upward, looking at the afterglow outside the window, her gaze lost

She didn’t know if the decision she made was right or wrong. She was both scared and unsettled….

Because in her heavy memory, Bernard was very persistent. When he liked something, he had to have

it.

But once he got it, he was more indifferent

She had seen his coldness, that bone–chilling coldness that kept people at bay was the most vivid

image in her memory

She was afraid of that Bernard, and also afraid of his persistence just to get her…

When she was filled with helplessness and fear, Bernard turned his head and gently kissed her cheek

“Eleanor, don’t be afraid, I wont hurt you again”

He felt her petite body tremble, knowing what she was scared of

He wanted to tell her that he had made a mistake once and would never make it again, b

ut he knew very well that words are the weakest

Eleanor lost a heart, had several near–death experiences, her heart was scarred

With such a scarred heart, how could a few simple words easily untangle her inner knots?

Bernard didn’t make grand promises, instead, he picked up the hairdryer again and helped her blow–

dry her still damp hair

After the hair between his fingers was completely dry, he knelt on one knee, bent down, lifted her foot,

and took off her shoes for her
