A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 406

She just saw Bernard gently and lovingly helping Eleanor with her helmet, and Teresa couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.

Even though both Teresa and Eleanor were pretty , and Teresa was even born into a much wealthier family, with more knowledge and abilities than Eleanor could ever dream of,

yet, Bernard was all over Eleanor and not her. It was mind-boggling.

Seeing Teresa's confident look, Eleanor said, "Why don't you ask him?"

She didn't know why Bernard fell head over heels for her, so she couldn't answer Teresa's question.

But to Teresa, this sounded like a provocation. Her face fell, "Ms. Shultz, where's your superiority complex coming from?"

Eleanor frowned, confused, "Dr. Teresa, you asked, I answered. What does that have to do with feeling superior?"

Teresa scoffed, "You're only acting high and mighty because you have Bernard backing you up."

Eleanor felt like she was talking to a brick wall and decided not to respond anymore.

Seeing Eleanor silent, Teresa assumed she had conceded. A smirk crept onto her face.

But she kept her superior attitude, asking Eleanor, "Ms. Shultz, has he proposed to you yet?"

Hearing that, Eleanor instinctively looked down and stared at her black boots, not uttering a word.

Seeing Eleanor's reaction, Teresa got the hint, "Just as I thought, there's no way he'd propose to you on a whim."

Teresa seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, leaning back on the bench, crossing her arms and tilting her chin up as if to warn Eleanor.
