A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1252

Last time Pearce was at the Sharp family's construction site, Peterson was the one who hosted him. So, he recognized Peterson and they were on pretty good terms, shaking hands as they met.

"Mr. Sharp, sorry to keep you waiting."

"No worries." Peterson brushed it off casually, replying before turning his gaze to Eleanor who was at Pearce's side.

"Ms. Elena, you're even more stunning in person than in photos."

A flash of light crossed his eyes, but it disappeared as quickly as it had come.

This was Eleanor's first face-to-face encounter with Peterson, the first time she was really getting a good look at him.

Peterson was a real looker, with chiseled features and a perfect face shape complemented by his healthy, tanned skin. He was as flawless as a sculpture, with manners to match.

Beyond his looks, his entire demeanor was top-notch as well. He was graceful and gave off the vibe of a well-bred rich kid.

"Mr. Sharp, you're even more suave in person than on TV."

Hearing Eleanor's compliment, Peterson extended his hand towards her with a smile.

"Let's make this official then, I'm Peterson."

Eleanor also reached out to shake his hand, "I'm Emilia."

Peterson gave a polite nod and let go of her hand, inviting her and Pearce to hop into his car.

Typically, a big-shot family like the North Funland would have chauffeurs, but Peterson was driving himself, very down to earth.

"My grandfather was a strict disciplinarian. He taught us to keep a low profile and not to be too flashy. So, we usually do things ourselves."

Peterson explained as he drove, then smiled at Eleanor, "Just because I didn't hire a driver doesn't mean we can't afford your design fees."

Hearing this, Eleanor could sense the light-hearted humor in Peterson's words and started to relax.

She laughed and replied, "Mr. Sharp, you're pulling my leg. I'm well aware of your family's financial status."

Hearing this, Peterson glanced at her and said, "Well, since you've already done your homework on my family, I won't bore you with the details."

Eleanor nodded in agreement and didn't say anything. Peterson then asked, "Ms. Elena, this is your first time in Canada, right?"
