A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 352

When Hailey found out that Garett and Bernard had both left, she dashed to the hospital.

There on the hospital bed lay Eleanor, her back all patched up with medicine, but her wounds were still festering.

She was lying on her side, her eyes blank, just staring out the window.

As Hailey approached, she realized Eleanor was in so such pain that she was breaking out in a cold sweat, but hadn't made a peep.

She was clutching the sheets, as if trying to alleviate the pain, but it was no use.

Seeing Eleanor like this, Hailey couldn't help but shed tears, "Eleanor..."

Hearing Hailey's voice, Eleanor slowly lifted her eyes, her unfocused gaze fixed on the figure in front of her for a long while.

When she finally made out it was Hailey, she parted her dry lips and whispered, "Hailey..."

Hailey could sense the helplessness in Eleanor's tone.

Touched, Hailey picked up a towel nearby, bent down and wiped the sweat off Eleanor's forehead.

"Eleanor, Liana told me nobody's taking care of you, so I rushed here. Sorry I'm late."

Eleanor, enduring the intense pain, gave her a small shake of her head, as if trying to say something but not knowing what to say.

As Hailey was gently wiping her forehead, she noticed the divorce papers by Eleanor’s pillow.

She picked them up and took a glance, her brows furrowing when she saw the names.

No wonder Garett's phone was off. Turned out he and Eleanor got divorced.

Hailey looked at Eleanor, so pale and feeble, and her heart ached even more.

"Eleanor, Garett probably thought Bernard would stay by your side, that's why he divorced you..."

Eleanor managed to put on a weak smile, seemingly too tired to talk about it.

Hailey sat down by the bed, held Eleanor's hand, as if trying to lend her some strength, and gave it a squeeze.

"Eleanor, it's okay. They might have left, but I'm still here. I'll be by your side, and I will never leave you."
