A Second Chance at Forever ( Eleanor Shultz )
A Second Chance at Forever Chapter 1076

Chapter 1076 

After wrapping up his business at the group. Bernard returned earlier than usual to Fiord Roundabout. He found Eleanor sitting in the living room, head bowed, seemingly deep in thought 

He shrugged off his coat, then started to loosen his tie as he approached Eleanor. 

“Sweetheart, why didn’t you continue working on your designs today?” 

Usually, she would be in the study at this time, but today she was just sitting in the living room, zoning out. He found it a bit odd. 

Hearing Bernard’s calm and gentle voice, Eleanor looked up. 

“My hand got tired, so I didn’t continue.” 

Upon hearing this, Bernard paused in the middle of loosening his tie, grabbed her hand, and began massaging her wrist. 

“If it wasn’t for wanting to complete the project your sister left unfinished, I wouldn’t have let you work so hard.” 

He just wanted to give her the best life, one that was free of worries. 

Eleanor watched his hands massaging hers, and after a few seconds of silence, she spoke. 

“Bernard, did you know Garett has depression?” 

His hands slowly came to a halt. 

Bernard raised his head to meet Eleanor’s gaze. He noticed the pallor of her complexion and the sadness in her eyes. She already knew the truth, and Bernard realized he couldn’t hesitate any longer. 

“I know,” he admitted, though Eleanor’s reaction still weighed on him. 

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Eleanor’s voice trembled with emotion, her hand slipping from his grip. 

Settling down on the sofa, Bernard’s eyes betrayed a hint of impatience. “I was afraid it would upset you, make you feel guilty, so I hesitated,” he explained 

“So, you deliberately hid it from me?” Eleanor’s brows furrowed, feeling hurt by the revelation 

Bernard’s gaze deepened with disappointment. “Are you questioning me for Garett’s sake?” he asked, causing Eleanor’s heart to skip a beat. 

“I’m not just doing this for him. I just believe you should have told me earlier,” Eleanor replied, trying to make her point clear. 

“And if I had told you, what could you have changed? Could his illness have been cured instantly?” 

His words made Eleanor hold back what she was about to say, a flash of anger in her eyes. 

“No wonder you didn’t tell me, so that’s what you think…” 

Eleanor stood up from the sofa angrily 

As she passed by him, Bernard reached out and pulled her back onto the sofa. 

He straightened his body, leaned over her, preventing her from moving, and asked in a low voice, Now that you know, what are you going to do?” 

His eyes were unfathomable, revealing no emotions. 

“Are you going to take care of him, or divorce me and marry him?” 

Eleanor stared at his indifferent face, unable to believe that he would say such a thing. 

“Bernard, do you realize what you’re saying?” 

“If I didn’t, would I be asking you?” 

Eleanor said nothing, her pale face making Bernard feel a sense of irony. 

“You have two choices, pick one.” 

Knowing that Garett has depression, she would surely help him no matter what. So, Bernard didn’t need to ask, he just presented the options. 

“You’re right, I won’t just stand by and watch Garett sink into a pit he can’t escape from. I will help him.” 

Not because she couldn’t forget, but because Garett had been sincere, caring, and helpful to her since they were young, and she owed him a deep debt of gratitude. 

Bernard should know this, but his words made it seem like she had changed her heart, which made her very angry. 

“As for whether I’m going to take care of him, leave you, or be with him, I haven’t decided yet.” 

Her tone was very calm, and it was hard to tell whether she was venting her emotions or actually considering it. 

Bernard stared at her calm face, and for a moment, he felt a chill run through his veins. 

Especially seeing the determination in her eyes, he felt an overwhelming sense of despair. 

“I thought you wouldn’t leave me for Garett again, but your current attitude tells me that I’m not important to you” 

No matter if love still existed between them or not, her concern for Garett was always special, and Garett was always an obstacle between them that 

couldn’t be overcome 

She would give her life for Bernard, but Bernard said that he wasn’t important to her. After all they had been through, wasn’t there any trust left? Her anger was burning brighter, but she didn’t say a word. She just pushed Bernard away, stood up from the sofa, grabbed her phone, and headed for the

door. 

“Where are you going?” 

Eleanor ignored Bernard Sitting on the sofa, he stared at her retreating figure, his heart racing, his eyes instantly reddening 

“Are you going to see Garett?” 

Eleanor, who was putting on her shoes, didn’t look back, replying sharply. 

“Didn’t you tell me to be with him? If not him, who should I go see?”
