A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 259

Cedric used to worry the most about Bernard falling for Eleanor.

After a few tests and finding out Bernard didn't love her, he stopped worrying about it.

But who would have thought that after Eleanor's death, Bernard would try to cut his wrists and overdose on pills for her sake?

Now he's just been saved, and the moment he woke up, he pulled out the IV and went home to drink like there's no tomorrow. He really didn't care about his health anymore.

Bernard didn’t even hear what Cedric said, and gestured with his bony fingers: "give it to me."

Cedric held the bottle tight: "If you keep drinking like this, you'll be dead in no time. No more drinking."

Bernard suddenly laughed coldly: "I didn't want to live in the first place."

Cedric's expression froze, and he thought of Bernard almost being tortured to death by Donna Laurence-Stanley when he was a kid. He couldn’t help but sigh.

If it wasn't for the Laurence family, Bernard would've probably left this world a long time ago...

He released his grip on the bottle and handed it to Bernard: "don’t drink too much."

After pouring the wine, Bernard held the glass and stared at the red liquid, asking Cedric, "Why is the wine bitter?"

Cedric glanced at him and said solemnly, "Bernard, it's because your heart is bitter that you feel the wine is bitter."

Bernard smiled bitterly: "So that's how it is..."

Cedric saw the once cold-hearted man became like this for a woman, and his felt suffocated for him.

"Bernard, the dead cannot come back to life, stop doing this to yourself."

Bernard didn’t respond, just tilted his head back and continued to drink the red wine.

Just as Cedric was about to offer more advice, Aidyn walked in from outside.

"Mr. Laurence, I found out the truth. Ms. Shultz..."
