A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 112

Hailey was still pissed about Eleanor being bullied by a stranger.

The whole way, she kept saying that next time they saw Mr. Law, they'd bring some dangerous stuff to keep him in line.

If Mr. Law dared to mess with them, she'd teach him a lesson on the spot.

Hailey was grinding her teeth when she said this, gripping the steering wheel tightly.

Eleanor was worried that she might break the wheel, so she nodded in agreement while asking Hailey to pay attention to driving safely.

The two chatted as they drove to the supermarket, loaded up on food, and headed back home.

When they got back home and headed to the kitchen to cook dinner, Austin showed up just at the right time.

He greeted Eleanor and rolled up his sleeves, taking the kitchen knife from Hailey.

"You two go watch TV, I got this."

Austin's gentleness made Hailey smile sweetly.

"Your cooking is definitely better than ours, so we'll leave tonight's feast in your hands."

Hailey patted him on the shoulder and then went to the living room with Eleanor to watch TV.

As soon as the TV was turned on, it started to repeat the news about the business alliance between the Lawrence Group and the Ratliff Group.

Hailey's eyes widened in surprise when she saw Bernard with a woman who looked somewhat like Eleanor.

"Eleanor, that woman ..."

It seemed like she suddenly understood something and immediately closed her mouth. No wonder Bernard forced Eleanor to sign such an agreement; it turned out he saw Eleanor as a substitute.

It looked like Eleanor was not only abandoned by Bernard but also used.

Five years, Eleanor had given five years of her life, and this was the outcome.

She glanced at Eleanor, who looked calm and not at all surprised, as if she had known all along, and her heart grew even more bitter.
