A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 609

Eleanor laughed. She was about to comfort Nina again when she saw a message from George, "No worries, Ms. Shultz. I'll make sure Nina goes to school."

Eleanor replied, "Dr. George, if Nina still wants to spend time with Ethan, I hope you can take care of her, and make sure she's not hurt."

George quickly replied, "Actually, Ethan is pretty good to Nina. You can chill out."

Eleanor stared at the message. She thought for a while, and replied with a simple "Okay."

At first, Ethan wasn't nice to Nina, but he seemed to have warmed up to her. Perhaps having Nina around would help him gradually recover from the pain of losing his sister and embrace a new life.

Eleanor sat at her desk. She zoned out for a while, put down her phone, and got up to find Hailey.

After being apart for half a year, they didn't get to hang out much. Now that she was back, Hailey was over the moon.

She pulled Eleanor onto the bed. They applied face masks and chatted.

This scene reminded her of three years ago, the night before Hailey's wedding. They were sitting just like this, talking about the past and the future.

Only this time, it was her turn to get married. And...

Hailey, who always advised Eleanor not to marry Bernard, was now speaking up for him. She kept telling Eleanor to treat Bernard better in the future, so they could have a lasting marriage.

Eleanor listened to Hailey, staring at the ceiling, and smiling. At this moment, she suddenly understood the meaning of getting a second chance at life.

It was to make up for her regrets, knowing that Bernard had loved her too.

To return to Hailey's side; to feel the care and warmth of family.

And that young man who chose to sacrifice himself, gave her consolation.
