A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 311

Veronica checked out her freshly done nails, and said to Cedric, "Don't sweat about your sister's wedding. But yours, man, is going to be a tough cookie. Your reputation isn’t that good, you know. Lots of high-society families won't want their daughters marry you."

Cedric thought to himself, he wasn't exactly itching to tie the knot either, but he just said, "No rush then."

Veronica knew he was still enjoying the single life, so she decided to leave him be. She turned her attention back to Bernard, asking, "What about you?"

Bernard, who had been staring out the car window the whole time, responded to Veronica's question with a simple, "Don't bother about me."

Veronica, a bit frustrated, said, "Bernard, you can't stay single forever just because of her, can you?"

She only found out about Bernard's situation when she came back to the country this year.

She never thought Bernard would try to kill himself over a woman.

She wasn't fully aware of the details, only that Bernard was responsible for the woman's death.

Even though the young lady was saved in the end, she had technically died once. How could she ever take him back after that?

It was pretty clear that he and Ms. Shultz were just not meant to be. He couldn't force these things, right?

But Bernard was stubborn as a mule, no matter how much she try to talk sense into him, it just goes in one ear and out the other.

But as the head of the Laurence family, he couldn't stay a bachelor forever, could he?

Hearing this, Bernard felt a pang in his heart.
