A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 944

The Spencer family initially planned to set up a meet between Katharine and the Sharp family's kiddo, but they had to put that on hold to deal with Wendy's sudden funeral.

After Wendy's funeral, York retreated to his study and pulled out a photo from his drawer, staring at the face on it.

Robin barged in and went, "Dad..."

York heard Robin's words and swiftly concealed the photo back in the drawer. Robin was taken aback, puzzled by his father's sudden panic. He had assumed his father was merely looking at a picture of his mother, so why the abrupt reaction?

York closed the drawer, rose from his seat, and declared, "Let's go."

Robin started to turn and leave but then abruptly halts. After a moment of contemplation, he turned back and approached the desk. Curiosity got the better of him, and he opened the drawer again, only to discover a picture of Eleanor. No, wait, it's a picture of Vanya!

Realization dawned on Robin that his father had been secretly keeping a picture of Vanya all this time. Had his father not forgotten her after all? The revelation stired conflicting emotions within Robin, causing him to question the authenticity of the love his parents had shown him.

He used to look down on Eleanor, thinking she sold herself for money, a low-born woman who had no self-respect.

But now he figured that it's his parents who have forced Eleanor to live this way.

His mom hurt Vanya in every way she could just so she could marry his dad.

His dad abandoned his fiancée Wendy just so he could get some help.

Who is he to judge Eleanor?

Thinking about this, Robin was overcome with complex emotions.

It seems like when people die, we forgive them for what they've done, just like Robin is doing now.

He knowed that Wendy hurt Vanya, causing Emilia and Eleanor to live a life of hardship.

But Wendy was now dead. Could the past be buried with her?

Robin couldn't find an answer. He gently touched Vanya's picture before putting it back.

Sheldon Pine came to the Spencer home to ask York for a keepsake from Wendy.

York went back to his room and brought Sheldon a necklace.

"This was her favorite necklace. Take it."
