A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1027

It's already noon.

Chase had made several phone calls to her, but eventually decided to come directly to her home. Eleanor blushed and felt her heart pounding. After composing herself, she walked over and sat across from Chase.

Noticing that she seemed a bit unsteady on her feet, Chase asked, "Ms. Shultz, are you feeling unwell?"

Eleanor tried to respond, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a severe cough replaced her words due to her dry throat.

Seeing her in such a bad condition, Chase refrained from blaming her and simply said, "My time is valuable, please be on time next time."

Once Eleanor had recovered from the coughing fit, she blushed and apologized, "I'm sorry, I will definitely be on time next time..."

"It's okay if you're not on time, but if you're sick, please inform me promptly," Chase replied.

Finally, Chase glanced at her once more and inquired, "Is your illness alright? It won't affect our appearance in court, will it?"

Eleanor blushed again and shook her head, "No, it's fine. I'll be okay by tomorrow..."

Standing upstairs, Bernard was looking at his watch while staring at the direction of the living room. Hearing this, he cracked a slight smile.

"Where's your husband?"

Eleanor looked up and saw Bernard's smile and glared at him.

"He's throwing a tantrum."

"Huh?"

Chase was tidying up his files while looking at her.

Eleanor waved her hand awkwardly.
