A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 635

In Eleanor's eyes, Ethan was supposed to be Casey's love rival. But Casey still decided to let his daughter spend eight months with him.

Eleanor couldn't wrap her head around this decision, after some hesitation, she felt compelled to voice her concerns, "Mr. Casey, you definitely know the more time a kid spends with an adult, the deeper their bond becomes. Why would you let them spend eight months together? Don't you think that's a bit too long?"

Casey seemed to have expected Eleanor's question, so without hesitation, he responded, "I have my own selfish motives for letting them spend so much time together. I want my daughter to spend more time with him, to remind him of Emilia's existence in this world and her continuing lineage. I hope that he can let go of everything related to Emilia and himself, so he won't bother me and my daughter again..."

Eleanor, with a frown, asked, "Aren't you worried that after spending so much time with your daughter, he might get too attached to her and refuse to hand her back to you?"

Casey shook his head, "No, he'll give her back to me because of Emilia's last words."

Hearing this, Eleanor felt a moment of confusion. If Ethan knew about Emilia's last words, why did he try to kill himself last time? Given Ethan's mad love for Emilia, he should have tried to fulfill Emilia's last wish and keep living, even if he was being hunted down by Bernard. However, he chose to commit suicide last time. The more Eleanor thought about Ethan's unspoken answer before his suicide, the weirder it felt.

Was it because he could tell her apart from Emilia that he chose suicide, or because he couldn't?

Eleanor couldn't find the answer, so she had to look up at Casey, "Mr. Casey, could you tell me, what were Emilia's last words?"

Casey gave a slight smile, "I'm sorry, Ms. Shultz, Emilia instructed me that only Ethan could watch that video."

A video, not just a few last words? If it was a video, then there must be images of Emilia. Eleanor had never seen Emilia in motion before. She really wanted to see what the Emilia who stood under the Eiffel Tower in Paris, wearing a red dress and watching the sunset, looked like. But obviously, Casey wouldn't let her watch the video left by Emilia. Eleanor looked at Casey with a hint of regret and expectation.
