A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 603

She initially thought Bernard was just dropping her off at Hailey's villa and then head off to the Lawrence Group. To her surprise, he followed her into the villa.

Seeing Bernard, her nanny Marina was over the moon. She welcomed him into the living room as if he were her own son-in-law.

"Mr. Laurence, please make yourself at home. I'll whip up some coffee for you….”

Marina cast a glance at Bernard before encouraging Eleanor with a thumbs-up and a look that said "You go, girl!"

Eleanor rubbed her forehead slightly and walked over to Bernard, "Bernard. I have a gift for you; let me fetch it."

Bernard lounged on the sofa with his legs crossed elegantly. He broke into a smile upon hearing about the gift, "Sure."

As Eleanor headed to the study, Bernard dialed Hailey, who was working at a nightclub...

Just as he hung up, Eleanor rushed out from the study, "Marina, have you seen my blueprint that was in the study?"

Marina, who was brewing coffee in the kitchen, poked her head out to answer, "Didn't Mr. Laurence take that blueprint?"

Eleanor turned to Bernard on the sofa, "You took my design for the Jared Group Headquarters?"

Bernard then realized that the gift she wanted to give him was the blueprint, "Yes, I took it and have already started using it for development."

Eleanor paused for a second, then recalled the news about the reconstruction of Jared Group Headquarters and finally pieced it together, "You were still mad at me back then, why would you use my design?"

Bernard casually pulled her into his arms, "I promised to use your design and to submit it to the competition. I always keep my word, regardless of the circumstances."
