A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1420

Bernard who had breached the biozone with lightning speed, Bernard, had intended to grab Yates for a little heart-to-heart.

Yet, what he hadn't expected was that the puppet master behind the seventh round of their twisted game was holed up right here.

Bernard's eyes, cold as a winter's frost, zeroed in on his target's head in the blink of an eye.

The moment his skull was cracked open, Bernard knew the seventh round had been tampered with on purpose.

Caleb... Caleb could have made it out alive. But to test him, they let Caleb die in the snake nest!

This vendetta, this ocean of blood owed, Bernard was determined to settle it with his own hands.

His white-gloved hand slid the gun back into his belt and slowly drew out a gleaming golden knife.

Bernard holding the knife, his gaze lifting, charged toward the controller of District B1-9 with blinding speed.

The hapless puppet master, still caught in the fray, couldn't even make out who was barreling toward him before his throat was slashed open.

Clutching at his throat, spewing blood, he stared with eyes full of unwillingness at Bernard, who had already sheathed his knife...

In his dying moment, he finally understood why Bernard had targeted only him - Because he had killed Caleb.

Even if Kermit Hyde had given the order, an accomplice was still fair game for death.

After he fell, Bernard, with deliberate calm, crouched down.

Robin, who'd come to the biozone as well, thought Bernard was squatting to deliver another stab.

But the man, with his devastatingly good looks, was merely using the corpse's clothing to wipe the blood from his blade...

Robin rolled his eyes involuntarily, then lifted his own gun to take out someone aiming at Bernard.

"Hey, I just saved your bacon. How do you plan to thank me?"

Bernard, still leisurely cleaning his blade, responded without looking up, his voice light.

"My dear cousin, if you don't mind, after we rescue your cousin-in-law, my wife and I can take you out for a meal."

Robin, who had just gotten over his shock, felt his heart seize up again, wishing he could shoot Bernard himself!
