A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 666

Upon seeing her agreement, Ethan felt a sense of relief, a faint smile graced his lips, but his gaze reluctantly shifted towards the door...

A stern and noble figure still stood there.

The answer that was left unsaid, the man outside the door, he probably knew.

But, none of this mattered anymore, because in his life, he only loved Emilia.

He couldn’t recall when he started falling for her, maybe it was when she chased behind his car on her bicycle, carefree and joyful.

Each time he saw her figure, her confident smile in the rearview mirror, he would smile too.

Some people never understand love until they lose it, and his realization came even later...

Until the very end of his life, when snippets of her, like movie scenes, flashed across his mind--

He realized that he had fallen deeply in love with Emilia, but, it was all too late.

In his last moment, he reached out his trembling hand, wanting to feel Emilia's heart one last time, and tell her:

Emilia, I'm sorry, I love you too.

But, he no longer had the strength…

In the end, he didn’t manage to say 'I love you' in his last moments.

And Emilia, she didn’t come to meet him, outside the door, there was no one.

On the hospital bed, he peacefully closed his eyes with this regret.

The sound of medical equipment and George’s anguished cries echoed in his ears--

Eleanor didn’t hear any of it, she was just sitting there in a daze, silently watching Ethan.

His face was pale, like an angel who had been through the trials of the world, his body returning to dust, his soul quietly departing.

He returned to where he belonged, or maybe where his sister was, either way, he was no longer of this world…

Eleanor stared at him for a long time, reached out her hand, and held the hand Ethan had extended but didn’t have the strength to move anymore.

At this moment, she seemed to know what Ethan wanted to do in the last moments of his life, she gently placed his hand on her heart.

His hand was still warm, before his hearing completely disappeared, Eleanor whispered into his ear:

"Ethan, I heard your answer, I know you loved me deeply, we will meet again in the next life——"

After saying this, her heart didn’t hurt as much, as if she had completed some mission for her sister, she involuntarily let go of Ethan's hand…

But, when she looked at Ethan's face, she suddenly covered her face and cried uncontrollably…
