A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 774

When Bernard strolled over with a poker face, Elbert hesitated for a hot second, then instantly turned his bike around, burning rubber towards the mountain road.

Sitting behind him, Eleanor nearly got thrown off, only staying on by grabbing onto his clothes for dear life.

"Elbert, you can't stand losing, can you?" Eleanor's pissed-off voice, accompanied by the roaring wind, buzzed in his ear.

"Who asked you to mess with the race?" Elbert, even more ticked off, shot her a glare over his shoulder. "If you weren't choking me and tickling me, I'd be the champ!"

"..."

Eleanor was momentarily stumped, then bit back.

"Who asked you to make me sit at the back?"

"..."

Elbert was so pissed off that he turned green and was tongue-tied for what felt like ages.

But he had to admit that she wasn't wrong. He shouldn't have asked her to sit at the back.

But Bernard winning the race thanks to Eleanor messing it up wasn't exactly playing fair either.

Elbert wasn't accepting this outcome, no way.

He glanced at Bernard restarting his bike to catch up through his rear-view mirror, thinking if he can catch up to me, then I'll take those two slaps; otherwise, there’s no way I'm admitting defeat!

He gunned it, flooring it down the original route, seemingly determined to have another face-off with Bernard.

Eleanor turned around, looking at Bernard, hot on their trail.

The distance was a bit too far to see his expression, but it was clear he was chasing them like a madman.

He's probably afraid Elbert'll take her away, so he's giving chase with all he's got.

Eleanor was scared Bernard would get into trouble chasing them like this, so she reached out to pull at Elbert's collar again.

"Elbert, stop it right now, or I swear I'll strangle you!"
