A Second Chance at Forever ( Eleanor Shultz ) novel Chapter 1025

Chapter 1025 

After the four ladies left, only Eleanor and Bernard were left in the private room. 

Bernard looked at her with a deep smile. “Babe, if you wanna keep this game going, I’m game.” 

He loosened his shirt collar, revealing his solid Adam’s apple and collarbones. 

Under the dim light, Bernard bent over, supporting himself on the sides of the sofa, enveloping her under him. 

His lips drew close to her ear, whispering, “Tell me, how do you want to play?” 

Eleanor was afraid of his temptations, but pretended not to care, “I’m done playing, let’s head home.” 

Bernard tried to kiss her, but she dodged it. He was a bit bummed, not sure what to do next. 

Looking at the indifferent Eleanor, he helplessly buried his head into her shoulder, gently rubbing, “Eleanor, don’t be mad.” 

Eleanor’s heart was touched by his cooing, but she remained calm. 

She said nothing. To Bernard, it felt like torture, “Babe, could you say something?” 

Eleanor simply said, “Let’s go home.” 

Unable to change her mind, Bernard picked her up and put her in the car. 

Back at Fiord Roundabout, Eleanor took a shower and then went to Nina’s room. 

Unable to find her, Bernard was filled with disappointment. 

For the first time, they were sleeping in separate rooms due to a fight. 

Bernard stood by the window, staring at the villa across the street. 

His gaze was icy, as if he wanted to storm over there and beat Robin. 

But he knew well that Eleanor was mad at him because of his indifference, not because of Robin. 

Bernard controlled his emotions, sitting on the sofa, his eyes never leaving the villa. 

And Eleanor, holding Nina, enjoyed her sweet sleep… 

The next morning, Bernard received a message from Chase. 

After reading the message, he remembered he had a meeting with Chase today to discuss the lawsuit. 

Eleanor would certainly be very concerned about Evelyn’s lawsuit over the custody of the child. 

Thinking of this, Bernard turned off his phone and walked into the bathroom.

Eleanor originally wanted to continue giving Bernard the cold shoulder, but remembered that she had to go see Chase with him today. 

Evelyn was suing both of them. They had to attend court together, so naturally they had to see the lawyer together. 

Having no choice, she went upstairs, found him still in the bathroom, and waited for him. 

After waiting for a while, the person in the bathroom still didn’t come out. Eleanor sighed, got up and knocked on the glass door. 

“Bernard Laurence, you’re meeting Chase at ten. If you keep showering, we’ll be late.” 

Before she could finish, the bathroom door was pushed open, a hand covered in water droplets reached out, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her in. 

The man’s strong arms lifted the petite her onto the washbasin, one hand holding her waist, the other propped on the mirror shrouded in steam.
