When she saw Bernard at the Mansion of Mallory, she thought he was here for the party. She never

expected he came to bring

her trouble.

He sure was well–informed. In just one day, he found out what she and Jason had been up to

Although it wasn’t entirely her fault. If it weren’t for Sophie, she would have been waiting to die at home

and wouldn’t possibly be

here with Jason.

Eleanor didn’t plan to conceal anything and told the truth directly. I wanted to keep my distance from

him, but Sophie insisted that I accompany him. If I didn’t agree, she would make me pay the penalty.

So I had to go against your warning with him.”

She meant it was Sophie’s fault and not hers.

Bernard curled his lips in a faint smile, “Would she have asked you to entertain him if you hadn’t been

in bed with Jason?”

Was he saying that she deserved it?

Indeed, Sophie was his first love. No matter what she did, he would never blame her.

Eleanor suddenly realized this and stopped talking.

Bernard took a step closer to her, pushing her back against the wall He placed on hand above her head

and leaned down to look at her. He said, “Did you deliberately provoke Jason to cancel the marriage

alliance between him and the Laurence Group in front of everyone just now?”

Jason had ended his marriage alliance with the Laurence Group?

Eleanor was stunned and then felt that she was being made a scapegoat. She had no idea she had

that kind of effect on Jason. She pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. Explaining was useless in

front of Bernard.

Bernard leaned in a little closer, his scents mingling. Eleanor couldn’t help but feel a bit spellbound.

She awkwardly turned her head to the side, but her lips accidentally brushed his cheek.

A static–like tingling sensation spread between their skin.

Bernard stiffened, his expression becoming complicated.

Eleanor felt a bit embarrassed, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

Bernard looked at her blushing face, slowly erasing his complex emotions, and said coldly. “Is this how

you seduce men?”

Upon hearing this, Eleanor’s embarrassment faded, and she felt a sense of defeat.

After a moment of silence, she said softly. “Mr. Laurence, rest assured, even if I would seduce others, I

would never seduce you”

Bernard’s face turned even colder.

He stared into her eyes, unable to discern any thoughts from gaze, only indifference.

He couldn’t describe any feelings, other than frustration.

Bernard also went silent for a while, until the icy look in his eyes gradually returned to its usual

coldness and distance. “Let’s hope so. If you ever have any intentions toward me…”

Eleanor promptly replied, “Don’t worry. Over the years, I’ve never had any inappropriate thoughts about

you, even more so after breaking up

Faced with Eleanor’s answer, Bernard was at a loss for words, anger rising in his cold eyes.

Seeing Bernard like this, Eleanor was a bit afraid. Her lifted chin gradually lowered under his strong

gaze.

This atmosphere lasted for a while, the room steeped in silence. It seemed that whoever broke the

quiet first would lose. After a long time, they heard Jason and Brenda’s conversation outside the door.

It was at this moment when Bernard finally lowered his hand from above Eleanor’s head, straightened

his body and stepped back.
