A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 905

The moment Bernard answered the call, Caleb didn't give him a chance to utter a word. He shouted, "Hey, Dad, it's Caleb. How's that memory of yours?"

Bernard:...

He began to suspect that Caleb's association with the Spencer family was diminishing his intellect. His ruse was pitiful, on par with Robin's pathetic attempts.

Suspecting someone else was in Caleb's company, Bernard decided to play along, feigning an aged tone, "A slight improvement, but it still need a doctor's consultation..."

Katharine, hearing the deep masculine voice on the line, relaxed her grip on the gun slightly and gestured to Caleb to maintain the conversation.

Catching Katharine's unsuspecting gaze, Caleb nonchalantly proceeded, "So, when are you planning to see the doctor? Have you made an appointment?"

Bernard, his fingers drumming on the glass table, replied icily, "Your mother will accompany me to the doctor in G country tomorrow. If you have time, bring your fiancée along."

When Caleb heard Bernard's words, accompanied by the tapping on the table, he knew it was Morse code.

He quickly understood Bernard's meaning. He wanted Caleb to bring Katharine to the destination. Even though he didn't know Bernard's real purpose, he would still do as told, "Alright, when do we meet?"

Bernard said expressionlessly, "Eight o'clock tomorrow night."

Caleb nodded obediently, "No problem, I'll bring her to meet you guys tomorrow."

After Bernard hung up the phone, Caleb put away his phone and looked at Katharine, "Did you hear that? My dad's coming to G country. He wants me to bring you to see them. See, I wasn't lying to you, was I?"

Katharine heard all the conversation, she put down her gun and said, "The fiancee you mentioned... is it me?"

Katharine looked somewhat taken aback. In her view, she and Caleb were merely fooling around. Had Caleb seriously considered marrying her?

Observing Katharine's beautiful face, Caleb felt a pang of guilt.
