Ethan must have used her name to mess with Bernard.
Upon understanding this, Eleanor quickly shook his arm, "Spill the beans, what exactly did he do to you?"
Looking at Eleanor's worried face, Bernard didn't answer her directly, he just softly asked, "Eleanor, how do you want Ethan to kick the bucket?"
His voice was low and filled with a bloodthirsty killing intent, as if he wanted to off Ethan right then and there.
Eleanor, slightly shaken, looked into his cold eyes, "Before that, tell me what happened?"
The man's knitted brows drooped, hiding all the bitterness and despair in his eyes.
The painful memories seemed like thorny vines spreading from his mind, binding him tightly, he couldn't break free.
He stood still, silent for a few seconds, then said softly, "Eleanor, three months ago, I came looking for you. Something happened that made me misunderstand you..."
Surveillance footage, voice recordings, videotapes - he didn't believe any of them.
But when he went abroad in a wheelchair to find her, he saw it with his own eyes...
In a room with a half-window, two naked bodies were passionately entwined...
Sounds of heavy breathing leaked from the gap of the door, like a sharp knife, stabbing his heart over and over again.
He felt chilled to the bone, his face pale, even his soul seemed to have been ripped out in an instant.
He clung tremblingly to the handles of the wheelchair, struggling to stand up, then staggered towards the locked door.
At that time, he was like a madman, fists clenched, pounding on the door, calling her name, begging her to stop.
The woman inside, still lost in pleasure, ignored him, continuing to intertwine with the man, again and again.
