A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 317

"Eleanor, my feelings for you are just because of the guilt I have for your past. The one you really love in your heart has always been Bernard."

"He loves you too, and I can't selfishly break up a loving couple like you guys. You..."

He paused for a moment, and his voice gradually became low, "Just go find him, and don't worry about me anymore."

He once thought about being selfish, but Bernard had done so much for him. How could he peacefully be with Eleanor?

He looked up, holding back the tears and reluctance in his eyes, and then turned around in his wheelchair to leave.

Eleanor squatted on the ground, watching his back, and said with a sense of loss, "Garett, you... don't want me anymore?"

Garett suddenly stopped and looked back at Eleanor, who was squatting on the ground.

He wanted to rush over, hold her in his arms, and tell her that how could he not want her. In this life, even if it meant giving up his own life, he would want her. But now he was just a man in a wheelchair, who would only bring her trouble...

How could he selfishly keep her by his side because of her guilt for him?

With red eyes, he said, "Eleanor, you don't have to feel guilty about my legs. This is my own doing, and it has nothing to do with you. And you should know that everything I've done for you since we were kids has been voluntary. I don't want my love to become a burden on you, do you understand?"

Eleanor slowly stood up, walked in front of him, took out a marriage certificate from her bag, unfolded it, and handed it to him, "Garett, have you forgotten that we're already married?"

She said, "Look, this is legally binding. How can I just leave you, and how can you say that you're a burden to me?"

Garett saw the marriage certificate, and tears suddenly fell.

He covered his eyes with one hand, not wanting Eleanor to see his embarrassment at the moment.
