A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 749

He ain't gonna kick the bucket, but he's sure gonna live a life of misery.

Hailey never had depression, so she can't really step into his shoes.

But she knows that Garett must be in a world of hurt.

What kind of life has he been living in the past year in B City?

How could a healthy bloke suddenly fall into a deep hole of depression?

Hailey looked at the smiling Garett, couldn't accept the truth, tears just kept on coming.

Lost his love, lost his legs, and now with severe depression, why is Garett's life full of bumps and ruts?

"People often say, some folks are here to endure hardships, and it will be alright after they've gone through it, so Hailey, don't shed tears for me."

Garett took a tissue from the table and handed it to her. His gentlemanly gesture made Hailey think he was the best man in the world.

"Garett, you said you ain't gonna die for her, then you gotta live well. You can't take your life lightly."

She finished speaking and opened her phone, showing him the picture she had taken earlier of Eleanor making a wish in front of the deity.

"Look, this is a picture of Eleanor making a wish for your health... Even though you two have chosen different paths in life, to Eleanor, you are still the most important person. So Garett, you must take your medication and recover well, don't let her down."

Garett saw Eleanor's devout prayer, his eyes brightened a bit.

He stared at the picture on Hailey's phone and after a while, he looked up and smiled at Hailey.

"Can you send me this picture?"

All their photos from their younger days had been destroyed, except for the photoshopped wedding one.

He had no pictures of her, let alone pictures of them together, which seemed to foretell their end.

"Sure."

Hailey took back her phone and sent the picture to his phone.

Upon receiving it, a gentle smile appeared on Garett's face.

He stared at his phone for a long time before looking up at Hailey.

"Hailey, don't tell her about my situation, let her and Bernard live happily ever after."
