A Second Chance at Forever ( Eleanor Shultz ) novel Chapter 413

Chapter 413 

She hopped out of the villa and quickly got a taxi to the restaurant. 

By the time she got out of the car, it was already dark and drizzling, but it didn’t dampen the cozy vibes in the restaurant. 

Eleanor stood by the roadside, watching them. 

The man was wearing a black suit, leaning back on the sofa, tilting his head slightly, looking at the woman across from him…. 

And the girl was in a sexy red gown, also lounging on the sofa, staring at the guy and talking. 

Eleanor couldn’t make out their expressions too well. But the atmosphere reminded her of when they were together. 

She didn’t want to believe they were on a date 

The fear ate away at her courage. She couldn’t bring herself to go over there. 

She hesitated for a long, long time, but eventually mustered up the courage to walk towards the restaurant 

Just as she reached the edge of the road, she saw Bernard suddenly turn his head and look out the window. 

Eleanor quickly waved at him, but… 

He was expressionless. 

His cold demeanor made her hand freeze in mid–air. 

She remembered worrying that he would become indifferent after getting what he wanted when she agreed to be with him. 

Now he had claimed both her body and heart. So, had her fears come true? 

Eleanor slowly lowered her hand, still standing there… 

She clenched her fists, scrutinizing Bernard. She still couldn’t believe he would look at her with such cold eyes. 

She doubted he had even seen her and decided to take a few more steps towards him 

But he just glanced at her coldly. 

Eleanor froze again when she saw his look. She felt a chill run through her veins….. 

She couldn’t believe the man who had cherished her just three days ago was treating her so coldly now. 

The light in her eyes faded. Her courage dissipated. She couldn’t bring herself to take another step…. 

But they had ended up once like this because she had shied away time and time again. 

Since she was already in front of him, she should go all out to get an answer… 

Eleanor gathered her courage once more and strode to the restaurant entrance. 

She wanted to barge in and find Bernard, but the security guard stopped her. 

“Miss, this place has been booked by Ms. Penrod. If you want to enter, please show your invitation.” 

“I’m here to see Ms. Penrod and Mr. Laurence, please let me in…” 

The guard refused to let her pass.
