Chapter 147
Eleanor knew Jason was waiting outside the door, but she didn’t ask him to leave. She knew the
Clowers family wouldn’t allow Jason to waste too much time in A City, and he’d be taken away before
long.
After getting home, she took a shower, opened the drawer, and took the medicine prescribed at the
hospital.
She forgot to bring the special medicine and cell phone that Liana had given her.
As she left in a hurry at the time, Eleanor just put on Bernard’s coat and helped Jason leave the villa.
Eleanor picked up the coat with a faint manly scent, touched it gently and felt reluctant to let go.
But when she thought of what he said in her ear, the tenderness in her eyes faded away.
The suicide note still lay in the drawer. Eleanor took it out and found the piece of paper with the word
“Bernard.”
She picked up a pen and wrote below it: he said, “don’t even think about me falling for you.” It turns out
he doesn’t love me.
Eleanor might have been so exhausted these past few days, she fell asleep as soon as she lay on the

Terminal patients tend to sleep a lot, and she quickly slipped into unconsciousness.
While the man outside the door leaned against the door frame, motionless, seemingly waiting for her to
soften her heart.
However, he waited an entire night, but she never opened the door.
The light in the man’s eyes gradually dimmed…
At the Laurence family’s estate:
Liana arrived as usual with her medicine box for a follow–up.
However, she was told that Eleanor had left and there was no need for further treatment.
Liana was surprised, unaware of what happened yesterday, thinking that Eleanor had left on her own
accord.
She thought it was better for her to leave, given her serious illness, and her demise at the Laurence
family’s estate could cause misunderstandings.
Liana nodded to the butler, planning to take her medicine box back to the hospital, but then she heard
Aidyn Reyes‘ voice from upstairs-
“Liana, Mr. Laurence wants you to come up.”
Upon hearing this, Liana obediently went upstairs.
“What does Mr. Laurence want with me?”
Aidyn was Liana’s brother, both working for Bernard.
But Aidyn grew up with Bernard, so he was closer to him than Liana.
However, their closeness didn’t matter as they were both Bernard’s capable assistants.
“You’ll know when you go in.”
Aidyn gestured for Liana to enter the study alone.
Liana nodded, pushed the door open.
“Mr. Laurence, you wanted to see me?”
The man sat in the study, staring at the data on his computer. As Liana entered, he merely glanced at
her with his peripherals before refocusing on the computer.
“Take these things to her.”
The man pushed a white leather bag and several boxes of medicine from the table in front of Liana.
She immediately recognized them as Eleanor’s belongings.
The medicine was what she had given to Eleanor before, but the packaging had been changed.
She had turned late–stage patient’s special medicine into packages designed for ordinary heart

Liana congratulated herself for secretly changing the packaging to avoid arousing suspicion, ensuring
that Bernard hadn’t discovered
the truth.
“Alright, Mr. Laurence, I’ll take these things to Eleanor later.”
As Liana picked up the bag and medicine to leave, Bernard stopped her.

“Mr. Laurence, is there anything else you’d like to tell me?”
Bernard looked up, took out a business card from the computer, and handed it to Liana..
“This is Dr. George, a famous doctor. He’s currently helping her find a suitable heart. You can contact
him directly in the future.”
Dr. George was a famous heart disease specialist internationally, and Liana had heard of him.
Bernard had actually asked Dr. George to find a matching heart for Ms. Shultz?
Didn’t he not care about Ms. Shultz?
Why would he help Ms. Shultz find such a renowned expert to search for a heart?
Could it be that he…
