A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1164

In the end, she just didn't have the guts to go in, so she just hung around in the living room downstairs, not doing much, just keeping Tyler company. She parked herself on the couch, watching TV, and when it was time to eat, she got up to cook.

While she was cooking, Tyler was standing there, arms folded, quietly watching her bustle about. Only when she had finished and served the food on the table did he sit down.

At this point, Liana would fork up a piece of garlic pork chop and put it on Tyler's plate, "Give it a try, is it good?"

Tyler would arch an eyebrow, parting his lips as a signal to Liana, "Feed me."

With a resigned chuckle, Liana would spear another piece of garlic pork chop and guide it to his mouth. Observing him methodically chew and swallow, her forced smile blossomed into one of genuine affection.

Even when a morsel of garlic pork chop tumbled from her fork to the floor unnoticed, she continued to feed Tyler, as if each mouthful could fill a void within her.

As the evening unfurled, Liana would clasp Tyler's hand, leading him to the garden beyond the villa. Despite its overrun state, in Liana's eyes, it was still a garden.

Hand in hand, they would meander from the garden to the beach, then settle down on the plush lawn, gaze cast towards the celestial tapestry above. They would while away the hours under the starlit sky, engaged in quiet conversation.

When the night was deep, Liana would go back to the master bedroom, take a shower, wrap her arms around Tyler's waist, and then snuggle into his arms and close her eyes to sleep. Even though it was just a pillow, she could feel the warmth and comfort of Tyler's presence.

And so, she spent 29 days with Tyler.

On the last day, Liana pushed open the door to the birdcage room.

Strangely, she didn't see Tyler sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, there was nothing in that spot, just some remaining blood stains.

No one cared about Tyler, he was already dead. After his body was removed, no one came to clean up the blood here, it was like it was abandoned.
