As they settled into the car, Eleanor noticed Bernard supporting his head with one hand, lost in thought, and she guessed he figured out who the med-switcher was.
Eleanor didn't pry into the Laurence family's secrets, but Bernard turned to look at her, his eyes shining with an emotion too deep to fathom.
“Babe, I just found out yesterday that my birth wasn't all that kosher, you... you won't ditch me, will you?”
It turned out he was worried that Eleanor would scorn his birth, hence the intense look.
Eleanor lifted her fair and delicate hand, gently stroking his thick hair.
“No matter where you come from, I wouldn't scorn you. What I love is just you.”
Even if he's not rich or dazzling, Eleanor would love him all her life.
Bernard's tense expression gradually relaxed, and with his long hand, he lifted her onto his lap.
His head rested against the car seat, his chin lifted, and he smiled faintly at Eleanor, his lips curling in sweet happiness.
“Say you love me a few more times, and I'll teach you a new one tonight.”
Eleanor blushed, instinctively glancing at Aidyn Reyes.
She noticed Aidyn had already put the partition down, and she sighed in relief.
Thank heavens the partition was down. If Aidyn had heard, she would have been super mortified.
After her sigh of relief, Eleanor lifted her fist and lightly thumped Bernard.
