Under the dim streetlight, a handsome guy was tightly holding a petite girl, kissing her passionately.
Eleanor was forced to tilt her head back, unable to resist his intense kiss, her bright eyes staring at him.
“Bernard.” She muttered.
As his lips left hers, Eleanor pushed him away, “What are you doing again?”
Bernard's eyes were hazy, and hearing her question, he started to control his impulses, “Sorry.”
He let go of her slender waist, took a step back, trying to keep a distance from her, and his body swayed slightly.
Luckily, there was a car behind him. He leaned on the car door, trying to stay calm.
A headache that had persisted for several days made him unable to control himself. He slowly raised his hand, wanting to rub his temples.
However, when his gaze fell on the woman in front of him, he changed his mind and started to caress her short hair.
Enduring the severe pain, he whispered to her, “Eleanor, the car is yours. I won't take it back. If you don't want to drive it now, it's fine. You can drive it when you feel like it.”
After finishing, he quickly withdrew his hand, placed the car key in her palm, and whispered, “I'll leave now. You should take some rest, and I'll pick you up tomorrow.”
He didn't say what he would pick her up for, just trying to maintain the balance of his body and turned to walk to the other end of the villa.
He didn't look back, opened the car door, got in, and quickly found a bottle of painkillers, swallowing a few pills.
After calming down a bit, he looked through the car window at the woman still standing in place.
Looking at her, he suddenly thought of something, took out his phone, and sent her a message: [Eleanor, open the trunk]
He had hidden it well, and Eleanor didn't notice anything unusual, only thinking that he walked away so quickly because he was afraid she wouldn't accept the car.
She stood there, watching him, thinking about how to return the car when her phone vibrated.
She opened it and took a look, hesitated for two seconds, then walked to the back of the car, picked up the car key, and pressed the trunk's unlock button.
The trunk slowly opened, and a scent of roses hit her face. A bouquet of light pink flowers came into view.
Eleanor stared at the bouquet, and after a while, she slowly lowered her gaze, covering the sadness in her eyes.
She reached out and touched the elegant flower.
She had asked him for lychee roses before.
However, he told her, “That's not what you're supposed to have.”
