She once said she'd never be someone's side chick, so how could he do something to let her down?
He hugged her tightly and couldn't help but blurt out his true thoughts: "If you hadn't come back, I'd never marry anyone in my life."
Upon hearing this, Eleanor experienced a slight tremor, although her face remained devoid of any expression..
Even though she was surprised, she didn't speak or ask him why he didn't end up marrying Sophie.
Bernard raised his hand to caress her cheek: "The one I've always wanted to marry is you."
His voice was hoarse, but it carried deep emotions, which made Eleanor's heart tremble. But her disbelief quickly returned.
As Bernard's lips trembled, he wanted to say more, but Aidyn's voice interrupted: "Mr. Laurence, we've arrived."
Bernard looked up at Eleanor and reluctantly hugged her again.
Eleanor just looked at him expressionlessly, as if blaming him for not keeping his word.
After forcing a smile, Bernard said, "It's over."
Eleanor glanced at him, then let go of his neck and got off his lap.
As she got out of the car, Bernard tried to call out to her: "Eleanor."
Eleanor turned her head and looked at the cold and noble man in the car.
The light inside was dim, so she couldn't see his expression clearly. It seemed like a dark shadow enveloped him, making it hard for him to break free.
He turned his head slightly, staring at her with bloodshot eyes: "Do you not believe that I love you because I was too cold to you before?"
Seeing his honesty, Eleanor didn't avoid it anymore and nodded gently.
Bernard lowered his head, seemingly laughing and mocking himself.
