A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1312

At the sound of the voice, Bernard turned around, his face cold, to see Sophie Ratliff sauntering towards him in her high heels. Behind her were Mr. Ben, armed with a controller, and a group of security personnel dressed in black, all tasked with protecting the two of them.

Bernard’s icy gaze was fixated on the controller in Mr. Ben’s hands. He held a list of the members in Siren Organization, and 1-2 thought highly of him and had given him the controller for Bernard's chip.

Should Bernard make a move against Sophie, Mr. Ben would manipulate him using the controller. If he tried to attack Mr. Ben, 1-2 would activate the chip, causing him pain and forcing him into submission. A closed loop had already been formed amongst them.

It didn't matter who held the controller. The main concern was whether Eleanor could leave, a decision that 1-2 had also handed over to Sophie. Now, Sophie held Eleanor's life in her hands.

Bernard lifted his frosty gaze, coldly locking eyes with Sophie, “Where’s the console to override the permissions?”

The console he’d used earlier didn’t work. Only by finding the one that controlled the chip could he break the program.

“It’s with 1-2. Unfortunately, you don’t have access to the upper district, so you can’t find him, nor can you break the program that keeps you within Area Opaca.”

Every time Sophie approached Bernard, she found herself on the receiving end of a ruthless attack. This time, she came prepared, bringing a group of men in black who had previously subdued Bernard at the Death Door.

Despite Bernard's incredible combat abilities, he was outnumbered and once again was dragged away by the security personnel for a chip implant surgery.

The image of Bernard, his skull being cut open and blood pouring out, yet not making a single sound, stirred Sophie's emotions. But Bernard was ungrateful! Despite her pleas to the men in black to not hollow out his brain and instead implant a chip, and even helping him hide his true identity, Bernard was indifferent upon waking up, his mind solely focused on that damn Eleanor.

Well, in that case, she would show them what a real life-or-death game looked like!

“I traded a list of 10 members of Siren Organization for half an hour. She won’t be harmed within that time, but after that, the snipers will…”
