Chapter 557
Just as Bernard was about to reply, she suddenly grabbed his sleeve, explaining excitedly
1 didnt, I wasnt with him!”
“He drugged me with sleeping pills and took me to G country!”
“He led to me that you were dead I thought you were really gone, I wanted to see you one last timel
“But he used that as a threat, made me pretend to be my sister I didn’t agree, I wanted to end it all. But
then he tricked me into thinking I was pregnant!”
Eleanor rambled on, touching her stomach, looking at Bernard, yelling with all her might
“I thought I was carrying your baby I agreed to his demand thinking I was going to have our child!”
“But a month later, I found out that I wasn’t pregnant at all!”
“He fooled me! He’s been fooling me all along!!
After Eleanor had finished shouting, she calmed down, looked into Bernard’s eyes, and asked with a
smile, ‘Do you know how I made it back?”
Bernard was trembling, looking at the Eleanor in front of him who seemed a bit off, and asked

He was shaking but was afraid that any of his actions would set her off, so he could only suppress his
endless fear and go along with her
Eleanor lifted her sleeve, revealing a scar and showed it to him.
“He only let me go when I almost died from suicide…”
She paused, and then said through gritted teeth “But he still chained me to the bed, kept me locked up
for three months before he let me go!”
She finished speaking, and then asked him crazily. “Don’t you think he’s a monster?!”
Bernard wanted to hold her, but she pushed him away. “You haven’t answered me yet!”
He looked at her, who was on the verge of losing control, his eyes red, and agreed with her, “He is a
monster.”
Getting the answer she wanted, she suddenly turned ferocious, if you knew he was a monster, why
would you think I was with him?!”
She seemed to realize her outburst, quickly pulled down her sleeve, and shrunk into a corner, looking
at him cautiously
Tm sorry, I’m not crazy, I’m just, just…”
She couldn’t find the words to describe, couldn’t speak, and could only humbly pull at her curly hair and
smile at Bernard.
“Look, I kept my hair long for you. Don’t… don’t leave me, okay?”
Hearing her words, the tears Bernard had been holding back suddenly lost control and flowed down.
What kind of torment had his Eleanor been through these days to turn out like this?
Just a moment ago he was cold to her because of a misunderstanding, almost cruelly leaving her in the
snow.
Bernard was in extreme pain and regret
He reached out and held her tightly in his arms
“Eleanor. Im sorry, I failed to protect you…”
His embrace, his voice, his breath, gradually brought Eleanor back to her senses
Feeling safe, she snuggled into his arms and held onto his waist.

If it werent for him turning back, putting that coat on her, and holding her in the car, she might have
already broken down….
The man holding her couldn’t speak, just held onto her tightly
Bernard still loved her, so she could now tell him her own “I love you“…
She gathered all her courage, and lifted her head from his chest
“There’s a secret I’ve never told you…
She softly asked Bernard, “Do you want to hear it?”
The man tried to press her head back into his chest, but she broke free
He could only awkwardly face Eleanor, but she didn’t mind, lifting her hand and cupping his face.
She stared into his eyes, leaned into his lips, and kissed him
She had never kissed him before, her movements were a bit clumsy, but left Bernard completely
stunned
Eleanor kissed him, and gently told him, “Bernard, I love you. I’ve loved you for eight years, and that’s
never changed-”
