A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 34

She was trembling with anxiety. Why was this man pretending to be Josef to get close to her?

Why was he hiding his true identity, why did he turn off all the lights when he came in, what did he want to do?

Her mind was in turmoil, not knowing what to do next.

Initially, according to the plan, she just had to deal with Josef, but now there was an additional stranger, what should she do?

Her heart was churning with anxiety, like a turbulent wave, but she repeatedly forced herself to calm down.

No matter who this man was, as long as he entered this room, she had to find a way to knock him out!

Thinking of this, Eleanor let go of her clenched hand, and said nonchalantly, "Mr. Caporal, if you want to role-play, you shouldn't turn off the lights. It's too dark to see anything."

As she spoke, she walked over to the table, picked up an empty wine glass, and poured a small amount of the wine, which contained sleeping pills, into it.

She carried the glass, which was half filled with wine, to the man and handed it to him.

"Have a drink first."

Eleanor had originally planned to give Josef the contract when he arrived, and after he got the contract, he would definitely try to take advantage of her.

At that time, she would convince Josef to drink first, and when the drug took effect, she would kill him with a dagger.

Then she would record a video exposing Josef's crime, showing that she was forced and had to choose to kill him.

And she, after doing all this, would post the video on Twitter at a scheduled time, and then choose to commit suicide by cutting her wrist.

In this way, the people of the Caporal Group would think that she and Josef committed suicide out of love, and naturally would not trouble Hailey.

But she never expected that the person who came was not Josef.

This completely upset her plan, but she couldn't kill this man directly.

Otherwise, if Josef wasn't dead and she committed a crime, it would be totally unworthy.

So she only poured half a glass of wine, an amount that could cause temporary unconsciousness, but would not kill.

She planned to knock this man out, then quickly book another room and send the address to Josef.

Otherwise, if Josef didn't receive her address, he would definitely send someone to ruin Hailey and Austin’s wedding night!

But the man did not take the wine she handed over, he just stared at her.

It seemed as if he could see through her thoughts in the dark.

Under the mask, only a pair of eyes were visible, and she couldn't see his expression at all.
