A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 650

At that time, he was tied to a chair, and could only watch from a distance through the floor-to-ceiling windows, unable to do anything..

Ethan felt like he was about to lose his mind. He desperately tried to break free, but no matter what, he couldn't get rid of those locked chains.

He could only collapse despairingly onto the chair back, his eyes bloodshot, staring at Emilia who was also unable to hold himself on the screen. "Ethan, from the very beginning, I've been chasing after you.

I have liked you since I was fourteen years old, and I have been pursuing you all the time. My behavior must have caused you great pain. Now, I've got ALS. I might not have much longer. After I'm gone, no one will bother you...If, I mean, if you still remember me, you can come and see my grave.”

Emilia lowered her head, looking at her withered, yellow hands, and smiled softly.

"I remember, the first time we held hands, I was the one who initiated it. At that time, I thought you would reject me, but you didn't, so I had the courage to chase you... I was so willful, not realizing that someone’s persistence could hurt another person..."

After she finished speaking, she lifted her head, looked at the camera, and smiled again.

"When I was young, I was really too ignorant. I knew you didn't like me, but I kept chasing you. But I don't regret loving you. Life's so short, and no one can be sure when they'll leave, so why regret the past, right? What do you think?”

Emilia paused, looked away, and tears slid down her eyes.

"My only regret is that I never heard you say you love me. Many times, I've thought, do you love me or not? If you love me, why have you never said you love me... If you don't love me, why did you agree to be with me? Since we're together, why have you always been so cold to me these six years. Ethan, I really want to know the reason and hear you say you love me, but I may not be able to wait for your answer..."

Emilia raised her thin fingers, wiping away her tears, and looked at the camera.
