A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 517

The plane arrived at the airport on time, and a tall man quickly walked out of the airport under the protection of a bunch of bodyguards.

After getting in a luxury car, he took out his personal phone to give Eleanor a call to let her know he was okay, but suddenly he was hit with a severe headache.

That handsome face turned pale in an instant.

He tossed the phone away, trembling as he took out the painkillers the Dean of W City Hospital had prescribed. He popped several into his mouth.

The bodyguard in the front seat saw him still in pain and worriedly suggested, "Sir, why don't we just go for the surgery?"

The surgery would mean opening up his skull, who knew if he would be able to wake up and see her after that. He wasn't willing to take that risk.

Bernard endured the pain, and shot his bodyguard a cold look, "Did you forget what I said?"

The bodyguard immediately shut up. The boss had ordered no one to mention his sickness once they were back home. "I'm sorry, sir."

Bernard withdrew his icy gaze, raised his hand to his forehead, and quietly waited for the medication to take effect...

When his head wasn't throbbing as much, the car stopped in front of a villa. Bernard struggled to get out of the car, and quickly made his way to the bathroom.

He cleaned himself up, picked out a very formal black suit from the wardrobe, and had someone style his thick hair.

When he saw he wasn’t as pale anymore, he opened the safe.

He took out three valuable items, a scarf, a photograph, and a diamond ring

, before carefully placing these items into a box, and then carried them out of the villa.

He was going to take Eleanor to Jorvik alone, so he didn't want the bodyguards to follow. After telling them to wait, he drove to Hailey's villa.

Marina quickly opened the door when she saw him, "Mr. Laurence. Eleanor is working on her designs in the study. I'll go get her...."
