A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 534

Ethan's gaze fell on the petite figure, "You miss him that much, huh?"

Eleanor stayed silent, her face expressionless.

Ethan wasn't angry, he just tilted his head and continued to look at her, "I asked you before, do you love Bernard? You said no. But a few months later, you're head over heels for him?"

Knowing she would probably stay silent, Ethan didn't pause this time and started to answer his own question, "You're not being true to yourself, you clearly love him but refuse to admit it, and now that you've missed your chance, you're ready to die with him. How weird is that?"

He acted like God and accused Eleanor from a third-person perspective. He then asked with confusion, "But there's one thing I don't get...."

He unfolded his legs and got up from the couch again, kneeling next to the bed, forcing Eleanor to face him.

"I looked into your history with Bernard. He had you as his secret lover for five years and didn't cherish you when he was with you. He slapped you after breaking up and caused your early death. He hurt you badly, so why did you forgive him?"

Despite Bernard's actions, Eleanor chose to forgive him, even willing to give her life for him. Why did Emilia choose to leave him forever?

Ethan looked at her with confusion, trying to find the answer in her lifeless eyes.

Eleanor just stared blankly. She was too drained and uninterested to clear up his confusion.

Ethan didn't want her to clear up his confusion, he just wanted her to say, "It's okay, I forgive you." He knew very well that what he had done was far worse than Bernard's actions. Emilia would never forgive him...

A hint of self-mockery flashed in his eyes, he let go of Eleanor and looked at her hands and feet that were reddened and bruised by the chains. His mind drifted back to the past, when he realized that he couldn't hold onto Emilia. He had used the same method to keep her by his side.

What was Emilia like back then? Resistant, argumentative, compromising, deceiving, and finally ran away and disappeared...

Ethan thought of the past with Emilia, his eyes started to turn red...

"I don't get it, she's the one who betrayed me first. Why am I the one stuck in hell....?”

Stuck in that hell where Emilia trapped him. Leaving him unable to escape!

Eleanor's eyelashes trembled a bit when she heard Ethan’s words. She still chose to stay quiet.
