A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 540

At a hospital in A City.

It's been two months since Bernard slipped into a coma.

The man on the hospital bed had a handsome and refined face, his eyes tightly shut, and lashes long and thick. He lay there silently on the crisp white bed, as if he had already left this world, leaving behind just a body.

Cedric took a cotton swab from Aidyn, dipped it in warm water, and moistened the man's dry, lifeless lips.

Grabbing a clean towel, he wiped the man's forehead and asked the head bodyguard standing behind him, "Still no luck?"

The bodyguard looked down, guilt written all over his face. "Sorry, we couldn't find anything in G country either…."

Hearing this, Cedric spun around and hurled the towel at the bodyguard's head. "You're useless! You can't even find a single person!"

The bodyguard leader didn’t move. He let Cedric vent his anger. "Three months ago, she was seen boarding a private jet to G country. Why can't we find her?"

Cedric's face turned grey with rage. He pointed at the bodyguard and cussed him out. "We've got leads, and you still can't find her. What good are you?!"

The bodyguard still didn’t speak. Cedric looked around for something else to throw at him, but Aidyn stepped in.

"Mr. Laurence, the private jet belonged to Mr. Wilson of G country. But he says he doesn't know Eleanor and denies she was on that flight. It's possible there's been a mistake."

Cedric's handsome face showed anger and fatigue from running the Lawrence Group over the past few days. He was anxious over Bernard's prolonged coma.

He furrowed his brows, took a deep breath to calm his rage, and sat back down by the bed.

He looked at the man on the bed, his eyes filled with worry and guilt. "Bernard, I'm sorry. We still haven't found Eleanor…."

He leaned back on the couch, looking at that flawless face and murmured softly. "Bernard, if you don't wake up soon, we might never find Eleanor. Can you really bear to see her disappear from this world…."

Cedric rambled on, but the man on the bed didn’t respond. It's as if he had already gone, and left behind Eleanor, the Laurence family, and this world.

Cedric stood up in despair, telling Aidyn, "Take good care of him."
