A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 952

In the Laurence family, aside from Sigrid and her folks, Bernard, Veronica and Cedric Laurence were all present.

Bernard was originally planning to bring Eleanor along, but Eleanor said her latest project had to do with the Sharp family.

She was worried that as his wife, if she showed up now, it would be obvious later when she was dealing with the Sharp family as Emilia, so she didn't come.

After meeting Katharine, Peterson went home and met two other people, but they weren't the right fit, so grandpa set him up with the Laurence family.

His grandpa was a big fan of the Laurence family's way of doing things, while Peterson was more impressed with Bernard's business chops.

Bernard was different from the others. He didn't rely on marriage alliances or the worldly stuff, but rather on projects and competence.

His little brother, Taylor Laurence, snagged quite a few projects from the Sharp family when they moved into North Funland.

Although it was Taylor who did all these, the man calling the shots behind the scenes was Bernard.

Peterson wanted to see Bernard's mettle, so he agreed to come.

Now that he was seeing Bernard in person, he felt like the guy had a powerful aura. Everything about him screamed "blue blood".

He was pretty sure that his big brother would really like Bernard, because they were both big shots in the business world.

After sizing up Bernard, Peterson turned his gaze to the others present, finally resting on Sigrid.

She seemed as reserved as Katharine, as if her mind was elsewhere. It seemed she also had a story to tell.

So, was he going to have to play a part in this drama too?

As Peterson was thinking, Sigrid's parents called her over to get him a glass of water.

Dressed in an appropriate outfit, Sigrid rose to her feet, took a small water jug and filled his glass.

"Enjoy it."

Sigrid's voice was quite pleasant. Peterson gave her a look.

Seeing Peterson looking at their daughter, Sigrid's parents exchanged glances.

"So, Peterson, what have you been up to lately?"

The Laurence family were heavyweights in A Country, while the Sharp family were big players in North Funland. Their strength and wealth were pretty much on par, so Sigrid was a good match for Peterson.
