Chapter 324
Eleanor shook her head. “No, I don’t want you to take me.”
She pushed Bernard away, retreated into a corner, hugging herself tightly, her eyes filled with
helplessness.
Bernard knelt on one knee before her, staring at her quietly for a while, then softly said, if I couldn’t be
the one to marry you on your wedding day, at least let me be the one to take you there. I don’t want to
miss your wedding”
Eleanor still shook her head in refusal. “No.”
Bemard said, “Eleanor, for the love I’ve had for you for ten years, give me a chance.”
Eleanor’s tears, which she had been holding back, suddenly rushed out. “Bernard, please, stop
pushing me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe stretched out his slender fingers, wiping the tears from her face, saying to her, “You were right not
to choose me. I always make you cry.”
With the pads of his fingers, he gently stroked her face over and over again. “Eleanor, I’m sorry. That
five years with me have been hard
on you.”
Eleanor covered her face with her hands, sobbing uncontrollably.
She never thought the once superior Bernard would apologize to her again and again.
Again and again, he broke through her defenses, making her cry uncontrollably.
Seeing her like this, Bernard felt a pain in his heart that made it hard for him to breathe, and he once
again pulled her into his arms.
He rested his chin on the top of her head, saying, “Don’t cry, just this once. From now on, I won’t make
things difficult for you anymore.”
Eleanor curled up in his arms, unable to stop her tears.
He held her, gently patting her back, calming her emotions.
Only when Eleanor had calmed down did he let go of her, saying to her, “I tore your wedding dress. I’ll
buy you another one.”
Eleanor, with her eyelashes downcast, said, “there’s no need.”
Bernard gave a bitter smile, but said nothing. He got up from the bed and made a call to Aidyn.
“Bring a set of women’s clothes.”
On the other end, Aidyn agreed and quickly went to the mall to buy clothes.
Bernard turned back to look at Eleanor, who was curled up in the quilt. “Hang in there a little longer. I’ll
take you home as soon as the clothes arrive.”
Eleanor lowered her head, resting her chin on her knees without replying, staring blankly at the quilt.
Bernard feared his presence in the room would make her uneasy. He forced himself to leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAidyn arrived at the mansion with a set of clothes in no time. After removing the tags, he handed it to
Bernard, who was sitting on the couch in the living room.
“Mr. Laurence, do you need me to prepare birth control pills for Ms. Shultz?”
Hearing these words, Bernard smirked at his own absurdity. “Look at yourself, Bernard. This is how you
treated her. You claimed to love her, yet you had her taking birth control pills. You’re not worthy of her
love, let alone talking about love. You don’t even deserve to say the
word love.”
Aidyn saw the change in his expression and realized that nothing had happened between him and Ms.
Shultz.
He immediately regretted his words and quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, Mr. Laurence.”
Bernard seemed unfazed and shook his head. “You can leave now.”
Aidyn responded with a quick “Yes,” left the bag, and swiftly exited the room.
Bernard took out the white dress from the bag and went back to the bedroom.
