A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 46

"I'm only waiting for you for half an hour."

After sending this message, the man didn't reply anymore.

It seemed like he wanted to leave the decision to Eleanor.

She clenched the phone tightly, her body trembling.

The message she had given to the police mentioned Josef, and there was surveillance footage of Josef entering and leaving the hotel room.

The police would surely investigate Josef based on this evidence.

If Mr. Law reported her intentions to kill Josef to the police at this point, she'd definitely be charged with attempted murder.

And Josef would know that her original intention wasn't to give him the contract, but to kill him.

If Josef knew she tried to kill him, he'd blame her for all the torment he's been through!

After all, the Caporal Group couldn't find the real culprit who had hurt him, and the fact that she wanted to kill him naturally made her look suspicious.

Josef was only exposed in a scandal now and hadn't been arrested like Mr. Caporal, if he woke up from his unconsciousness and found out the truth, he'd never let her go.

She was still terrified of Josef. Even though he was down and out, he could still torment her and Hailey easily.

She wasn't afraid of death, but Hailey was her only weakness.

After thinking for a while, she obediently went to the luxury suite of the Midnight Bar.

It was better to be threatened by him than to be retaliated by Josef.

But she prepared an electric baton before leaving.

She thought to herself, no matter what, she had to fight back one more time!

Eleanor mustered up the courage and knocked on the door of the luxury suite.

Soon, the door was opened from the inside.

It was an automatic door, remote controlled.

The person who opened the door stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

He was still dressed the same way, his entire face hidden behind a bronze mask, messy hair, accompanied by loose, casual clothes.

The man stood in front of the window with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a glass of red wine.

Seeing her standing still at the door, he gestured with his hand, "Come here."

Such a cold tone was really like Bernard. But the tattoo on his neck made her doubt her suspicion.

She entered the room, her foot barely on the soft carpet, and the door behind her suddenly closed.

The sound of the door closing made her feel like it would be hard to escape from this devil from now on.
