Chapter 234
The stick hit really felt like a wham on Eleanor, scaring her to step back. Accidentally, she stepped on a
rock.
Almost falling, a slender hand behind her caught her waist and steadied her just in time.
She looked back and saw Bemard’s cold gaze on Ethan, making her jittery.
Bernard’s status was something Ethan probably wouldn’t want to mess with She quickly broke free
from Bernard and, gathering her courage, took Ethan’s hand.
*…Honey, stop hitting, let’s go home. ”
Honey?
Ethan put away the stick, giving her an unhappy side–eye, as if saying, “What the hell are you babbling
about?”
At this point, Eleanor couldn’t care less. Grasping his arm, she tiptoed and whispered in his ear, “Just
play along”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEthan, however, uncooperatively replied. “You got yourself into this trouble, figure it out on your own”
Eleanor, growing anxious, whispered, “If he takes me away, it’s like taking away my sister’s heart.”
Ethan had no way
He put down the baseball bat, finally compromising. “Let’s go.”
Seeing him cooperate, Eleanor held his arm tightly and turned to leave.
“Don’t go!”
A cold voice made Ethan stop in his tracks.
Eleanor tugged at his arm, telling him, “Just ignore him”
But Ethan didn’t want to leave anymore. He turned around and spun the baseball bat in his hand, then
looked at Bernard with a raised chin.
“You hurt my wife, I let it slide, and you’re still riding high. Who the hell do you think you are?”
Bernard didn’t take Ethan seriously at all. He walked up to Eleanor and extended his hand. “Come with
me.”
Before Eleanor could refuse, Ethan suddenly embraced her by the shoulders, pressing her to his chest,
and challenged Bernard, ‘On what grounds?” Seeing her holding Ethans arm and him holding her
shoulders, both tightly pressed together, Bernard was suddenly filled with rage.
“Because I love her!”
His voice trembled but still rang clear and bright. It seemed as if the eight years of restraint had erupted
at this moment.
Seeing the look in Bernard’s eyes, Ethan seemed to realize something. He lowered his head to look at
Eleanor, who he was holding.
The woman in his arms showed no emotion, as if she had just heard a joke. She smirked and shrugged
it off.
Ethan did not let her go. Instead, he held his head high and told Bernard, “You’re too late, she’s already
married to me”
Was he too late?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBernard sneered and yanked Eleanor away.
Pressing her shoulder, he looked down at her, “Eleanor, I’ve loved you for eight years. Can you stop
punishing me like this..?”
She could hit him, curse him, hate him, and never forgive him. Anything but using another man to
provoke him. He couldn’t take)
Eleanor scoffed in her heart, “Love me? For eight years? I had no idea”
Those past memories kept replaying in her mind, but there was never a trace of love, only his coldness
and indifference.
He had clearly never loved her, so why claim now that he had for eight years? Who would believe this?
She would rather die than have anything to do with him as Eleanor. Her face remained emotionless.
looked at him coldly, “Sir, tonight’s farce should end. We’ve reached our limit of tolerance for you”
With that, she ruthlessly pushed away his hand on her shoulder and walked towards Ethan, “Let’s go.”
Ethan’s gaze chifted, taking hold of Eleanor’s hand as they walked towards the car,
This time, Bernard did not stand in their way. Instead, with tearful eyes, he watched the two of them
hand in hand, walking away.
