A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 25

As she was heading back to her own ward, Hailey just happened to have bought some soup back. Seeing her up and about, Hailey hurried over.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed, wandering around just after your fever broke?"

Hailey made her sit down on the bed and sternly scolded her, "You have a heart condition, you need to be more careful."

Eleanor's heart warmed up, and she smiled, "I went to get my test results."

Hailey opened the lid of the soup container and said, "I could've gotten that for you, you should stay here and rest."

After saying that, she reached out with concern, "Where's the report? Let me see it."

Eleanor blinked her eyes. She didn't want to lie to Hailey, but she still reluctantly said, "I got it to show the doctor, but I left it in the consultation room."

Hearing this, Hailey didn't think much of it, but she was more concerned about Eleanor's health, "What were the results?"

Eleanor replied casually, "No biggie."

Hailey put down the spoon, and looked at Eleanor very seriously, "You're not like ordinary people, you have a heart condition, so blood tests are the most important checkup."

Eleanor smiled, "I know, the doctor said everything's fine, my heart's in good shape, so don't you worry."

Finally reassured, Hailey handed Eleanor the soup, "I bought your favorite, chicken noodle soup. Have some first."

Eleanor took it and scooped small spoonful into her mouth.

Hailey looked at Eleanor's pale face and hesitated to speak.

If she hadn't just misheard, Eleanor had been calling for Garett in her sleep.

The guy had always been a taboo topic for Eleanor. After so many years, this was the first time Hailey had heard Eleanor call Garett's name in her sleep.

Hailey wanted to ask whether Eleanor's memories of Garett were still buried deep inside her, but she also didn't want to make her upset.

After thinking for a long time, Hailey eventually chose to keep quiet. Garett was a thing of the past, mentioning him would only add distress.
