A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 118

Ignoring the intense pain in his thigh, Josef suddenly lifted his leather shoe, hooked the tip under Eleanor's chin, and forced her to look at him.

"You sneaky woman! I'm like this because of the people you sent after me. Don't you think I should be really grateful to you?"

Eleanor hadn't noticed the anger in Josef's eyes, but now she was forced to look up at him, and she instantly saw the fury burning within.

She was so scared that her breath caught in her throat, but she knew she couldn't show fear, so she clenched her teeth and tried to calm down.

"You must have misunderstood. I never sent anyone to harm you, and I don't know the masked man you're talking about..."

Even if Josef thought she sent Mr. Law to hurt him, she couldn't admit she knew him. And it wasn't her who asked Mr. Law to go after Josef. She only found out from the news the next day.

Besides, she was also a victim.

"Don't know him?"

Seeing Eleanor play dumb, Josef's expression darkened.

"Haha…"

His sinister laugh gave Eleanor goosebumps.

She clenched her fists and continued to deny it: "The masked man dared to hurt even you, so he must be really powerful. How could someone like me have contact with such a person…"

Josef laughed even more menacingly: "You're still as persuasive as ever. Almost made me believe you again, but this time..."

He paused for a moment, his eyes filled with anger, and he revealed a fierce expression.

"I'll never let you off the hook!"
