A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 213

Seven days after Eleanor's death, Jason returned to A City.

He went to Hailey's apartment with a bag of documents in hand.

Hailey had just finished preparing a bunch of Eleanor's favorite dishes, placing them on the table when Jason showed up.

After he walked in, he glanced at the food on the table and asked Hailey with a hint of surprise, "What's with all the food?"

With some sadness in her eyes, Hailey replied, "I heard that today, the loved ones who have passed away for seven days will come back. Eleanor didn't get to eat the soup I bought her before she passed away - she must've been hungry for a few days. So, I prepared more food for her just in case."

Hearing this, Jason's face turned pale, as pain gripped him so bad he couldn't breathe.

Eleanor had indeed left this world without eating or even drinking a drop of water.

Remembering Eleanor's dismal departure, Jason felt wobbly and had to lean on the dining chair to steady himself.

Seeing him like this, Hailey immediately suggested he take a seat and then went to the kitchen to get a bowl and utensils. Setting them aside, she said, "Let's eat with her."

Looking pale, Jason nodded and took the utensils Hailey handed him. But as he brought the food to his mouth, he couldn't taste anything.

Neither could Hailey, but she forced herself to eat. She had to gather strength for the vengeance she planned against Austin and his accomplice!

After a few bites, Jason put down his fork and handed the bag of documents to Hailey.

"Hailey, these are all the immovable properties I own, and I've transferred them all under your name."

"As for the non-immovable ones, I've transferred them to your bank account. You can check the specific amount later."

"You don't have to work at that nightclub anymore - take good care of yourself and don't get too tired."

Hailey grew more and more uneasy, feeling that he was leaving his last words behind. "What are you going to do?" she asked.
