A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 917

Elbert tried to beat around the bush, but Robin didn't bite. He had no choice but to spill the beans.

According to Elbert's father, the illegitimate daughter was actually Granddad's love child with another woman. Fearing Grandma's discovery, Granddad hid her with the Hooper family. However, he later deceived Grandma by claiming that bringing the illegitimate daughter back would bring wealth to the family, which convinced her to agree.

Surprisingly, it turned out that the illegitimate daughter became Bernard's dad's mistress. Granddad slyly integrated her into the family but eventually kicked her out because of their relationship.

The shocking news of the Laurences' mistreatment and the death of the Pine family's illegitimate daughter reached Grandma's ears. She realized that the one raised by the Hooper family, coincidentally named Tammie Pine, was actually Granddad's love child. Furious, Grandma nearly filed for a divorce.

Robin, amidst all the details, focused on the key fact: the Pine family's illegitimate daughter was Bernard's dad's mistress.

Upon hearing this, a thought flashed across his mind. Could it be that Bernard was the child of the Pine family's illegitimate daughter?

The thought quickly vanished though. If Bernard really was the child of the Pine family's illegitimate daughter, how could the Laurence family let him be the family head?

But what if...

Robin thought for a moment. Even if it was a long shot, Bernard wasn't necessarily a match. Plus, he couldn't exactly dig out Bernard's heart, could he?

While Robin's thoughts were all over the place, Elbert kept rambling in his ear, "I can't believe Eleanor isn't my cousin. Such a pity, I've always wanted a sweet sister like her..."

Hearing this, Robin pictured Eleanor's pretty face, "Is she sweet?"

Elbert nodded, comparing her to Robin's sister, "A thousand times sweeter than your sister!"
