A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1144

In the restaurant, the food quickly hit the table. Both of them were chatting away while enjoying their meal. Somehow, their conversation circled back to the past...

Liana hadn't planned to ask, but upon hearing Jules talk about those who had bullied her and their life after prison, she couldn't help but ask, "They were just small-time thugs, how could they live a stable life abroad? Did they have any big business deals?"

Jules answered, "They didn't have any big business to do. After getting out of prison, they suddenly became very rich, as if they were bankrolled by some big shot. They even emigrated together. They didn't do any business and lived a luxurious life. I have no clue where their money came from."

After the incident, apart from a few who unfortunately drowned while trying to escape, the rest were sent to prison. But their life after prison was extremely affluent.

Liana's hand trembled slightly, "Where are these people now?"

Jules, thinking Liana wanted to seek revenge, quickly responded, "They are all dead. Some perished at sea, some were killed over gambling, some died in car accidents. Their endings were all terrible, maybe it’s God's punishment."

Jules always believed that those who do evil will be punished sooner or later. So, he didn't give much thought to their demise.

However, Liana was full of doubts. Why did they become rich all of a sudden? And why did they suddenly die?

This sounded like they knew some secret, extorted a fortune, and then were slowly killed off so as not to draw attention.

After pondering for a moment, Liana looked at Jules, who was focused on his food, "How do you know all this?"

Without lifting his head, Jules replied, "We were in the same country. Their news was all over the local media, of course I know..."

Upon hearing this, Liana's doubts deepened.
