Chapter 580
Eleanor clenched her hands together; her words stuck on the tip of her tongue ‘Did Emilia betray
Ethan?”
As for that, George wasnt too sure either. 7 was not in G country those years. I have no idea how
Emilia and Mr. Ziegler suddenly had a falling out. The only one who knows the real story is Mr. Ziegler
himself, but he wouldn’t tell a soul‘
That chapter of his life was a thorn in Ethan’s side, and being as proud as he was, there was no way
he’d bare his wounded heart for others to see
Eleanor got the picture and nodded at George
After spilling the beans to Eleanor about his deepest secrets, George suddenly relaxed and said. “Ms
Shultz, if the truth he uncovers turns out to be the same as before and it affects him, please, for
Emilia’s sake, lend a helping hand to Mr. Ziegler‘
Eleanor didn’t quite get what George meant when he said, “How can I help?”
George’s gaze landed on Bernard, who was standing next to Eleanor and he suddenly closed his
mouth.
So he hid the turmoil in his eyes and laughed it off “Never mind, we’ll cross that bridge when we come

With that. George left them standing in the snow and headed back toward the villa.
Bernard watched George’s retreating figure, his indifferent eyes slowly filling with a deep, unreadable
emotion.
The meaning behind Georges words and the answer that Ethan had left unsaid before his suicide gave
Bernard food for thought.
Whether Ethan could differentiate between Eleanor and Emilia, Bernard didn’t know. Ethan had not
given any answer, or maybe he had, but no one knew about it.
Bernard, umbrella in hand, looked at Eleanor, who was still lost in thoughts about Emilia
A strong sense of possession suddenly filled Bernard’s eyes.
Regardless of Ethan’s answer, whether he could tell the difference or not, Eleanor could only ever
belong to him, and no one else had better lay a finger on hert
He chucked his umbrella to Caleb, bent down to scoop up Eleanor, buckled her into the car, and then
said, “Eleanor, let’s go home”
Eleanor snapped out of her daze and gave him a sweet smile.
“Okay, let’s go home”
Late into the night, a line of cars followed the Koenigsegg, their wheels churning up the snow and
painting a beautiful scene against the silent night.
Perhaps to avoid drawing too much attention to Eleanor, Bernard carried her back to her room. After
she fell asleep, he grabbed his phone and dialed a number.
Cedric, who had just managed to convince Hailey to open the door, was interrupted by his ringing
phone before he could even step inside,
Just as he was about to pull out his phone, Hailey suddenly slammed the door shut, nearly whacking
him in the face
Cedric, clutching his aching nose, looked at the closed door in confusion.
“Hailey, didn’t we agree that I could come in and apologize properly?”
“No need, deal with your flock of girls. I’ll go find Eleanor myself tomorrow, and you don’t need to pick
me up.”
Cedric’s heart sank. He wanted to say something, but he saw through the white fence that Hailey had
already walked into the living room without looking back.
Then all the lights in the villa were turned off, the curtains were drawn, and everything was pitch black.
She didn’t even leave him a silhouette to look at.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFurious, Cedric pulled out his phone, about to unlock it and vent, but saw the name on the screen:
Dear, Bernard.
His anger boded over
Mr. Laurence had not only ruined his plans but also called him in the middle of the night, causing Hailey
to think it was one of his many female companions calling him. He couldn’t even get
in the door now; it was damnable!
Cedric gritted his teeth and said. “Yeah, what’s up?”
He was pissed, but his tone was gentle, seemingly maintaining his usual polished image
Bernard, careful not to wake Eleanor, lowered his voice to a whisper and said, ‘I’m requisitioning the
proposal plan you set up before. You handle it tomorrow.”
Cedric sucked in a breath, calmed himself down, and asked in a seemingly friendly manner. “Didn’t you
look down on my plan before? Why the sudden change of mind?
Im in a hurry to get married”
These four words left Cedric speechless. Before he could even retort, the other party hung up the
phone.
Cedric, burning with rage, clutched his phone and stood there in the cold wind and snow, cussing
Bernard out
