A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 870

There's a whole bunch of people, all members of the Laurence family led by Blake.

These included relatives Cedric had mentioned and others Eleanor barely knew, having only seen them at the wedding.

The minute they laid their eyes on Eleanor, they were seething with hostility. They looked like they wanted to tear her into pieces right there and then.

Under such gazes, Eleanor started breaking out in a cold sweat, instantly soaking her clothes.

Blake, leaning on his cane, approached Eleanor, sizing her up with his sharp eyes.

“Should I call you Ms. Shultz, or Ms. Elena?”

Looks like Robin had spilled the beans.

Eleanor gripped her phone tightly, glancing back at Scott.

Scott, sitting in the car, had already sent a message to Bernard. Seeing Eleanor looking his way, he nodded at her immediately.

Taking the hint, Eleanor gathered her courage to face Blake again.

“Grandpa, let's go inside to talk.”

“No!”

Blake raised his hand to stop her. “Don’t call me grandpa.”

Despite her inner turmoil, Eleanor kept her composure and responded gently, “Then I'll just call you Blake.”

Blake scoffed dismissively, “Whatever you call me, it can't change the fact that you’re from the Pine family. You changed your name, got close to my grandson, schemed your way into becoming his wife. What are you up to? Are you seeking revenge against the Laurence family, or after our wealth?”
