A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1033

After scoping out Robin, Bernard put down his binoculars and pulled the curtains.

Eleanor was sitting at the vanity, massaging aromatic oils into her hair.

Seeing her so quiet and obedient, Bernard couldn't help but walk over and pull her into a hug.

"Baby, you're mine and mine alone. Nobody else should get any ideas."

Eleanor found his sudden declaration amusing.

"I'm already married, who would be making moves?"

Clearly, she had no clue.

Bernard, being a bit of a rascal, had no intention of telling Eleanor.

He simply lifted her chin and planted a kiss on her lips.

"Babe, you been feeling anything lately?"

"What do you mean?"

Bernard's hand brushed across her belly.

The mere mention of this dampened Eleanor's mood.

"Still no changes."

She was starting to fear that she might be infertile.

Even the medication Mr. Keith prescribed seems to have no effect.

"It must be that I haven't done enough."

He hasn't done enough?

He's been trying day and night, practically gluing himself to her side, but...

"Why are you suddenly asking about kids?"

He never cared about kids, always advising her not to have them. Tonight though, he brought it up out of the blue. Strange.

Without answering, Bernard scooped her up and headed for the bedroom...

At four in the afternoon the next day, Eleanor got a call from Hailey. Apparently, Yeager's mother tried to kill herself.
