Chapter 561

He wrapped his arms around her tightly, ushering her into his master bedroom. Then, he bent down

and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead

Eleanor jotted awake from his peck, thinking it was Ethan who was touching her. She freaked out and

immediately opened her eyes

Then, she realized that the man in her sight was not Ethan but Bernard Her anxiety eased a little.

“Eleanor, did I frighten you?”

Eleanor shook her head and lazily patted the spot next to her, “Can you keep me company for a bit?”

Bernard was originally going to instruct Caleb to prepare for action, but seeing her wanting him to stay,

he swallowed his anger.

He lay down beside her, holding Eleanor close to him, stroking her back, softly lulling her to sleep

Eleanor leaned against him, comforted by his subtle scent, and quickly fell back into slumber.

Bernard, a man who hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in three months, also found solace in her

presence. Yet, he dared not fall asleep, only gazing at her

Perhaps her steady breathing wore him out.

Bernard struggled to stay awake for a while but eventually succumbed to sleep.

He thought holding her would ward off nightmares, but as soon as he fell asleep, he was haunted by

dreams again

In the middle of the night, Eleanor was sound asleep when she heard Bernard murmuring in a shaky

voice.

Frightened, she opened her eyes and saw Bernard, who had pushed her away and was curled up in a

corner.

He seemed trapped in a nightmare, shivering and pale, his forehead drenched in cold sweat

His fists clenched tight, nails digging into his flesh till it bled, but he was still not able to wake up from

the nightmare, instead sinking deeper

Seeing him in pain, Eleanor’s heart ached. Her long lashes were wet with tears welling up in her eyes.

She wanted to hold him, but then she heard him say

“Eleanor, please, don’t do this to me

Please, don’t punish me like this.”

1 can’t bear it, please let me be…

Eleanor froze upon hearing these words uttered in his sleep.

Did she cause his nightmares?

Did she hurt him unknowingly?

She had only rejected him once when she came back from G country. She hadn’t hurt him otherwise.

Why would he say such things.

“Eleanor, please, stop torturing me. I won’t bother you anymore, okay…”

At this moment, Bernard was as vulnerable as an abused child, his helplessness breaking her heart.

Eleanor stepped forward and held him, calling him gently, “Bernard, you’re having a nightmare Wake

up.”

But he was stuck in his dream. Eleanor had to call him again and again until she managed to pull him

back to reality

The moment he opened his eyes and saw Eleanor holding him, his eyes filled with tears, revealing a

deep–seated despair.

Eleanor anxiously looked at his pale face and asked, ‘Bernard, what’s wrong?”

Bernard regained his composure and pulled her into a tight embrace, ‘Eleanor, I’m sorry. I lost control

Did I scare you?”

This was how he had spent the last three months He thought once she came back, the nightmares

would stop But who would’ve known..

He shouldn’t have let her see him at his weakest

Eleanor was indeed scared, but she was more worried about him, Tell me the truth, did Ethan do

something to you?”

He had just said, he wouldn’t bother her anymore,‘ which made Eleanor wonder, with Bernard’s

capabilities, how could he have not found her all this time?

There must be someone pulling strings in the dark, preventing him from finding her or making Bernard

give up on her!.

And the only person who could be up to such mischief was the madman, Ethan!

Ethan must have used her name to mess with Bernard.
