Chapter 290


    The rain was pouring down, drenching the man from head to toe.


    His thick hair and crisp suit were soaked by the relentless downpour. The rainwater ran down his


    stunning, wless face and onto his slender neck.


    He seemedpletely unfazed, walking straight towards his car.


    Seeing him return, Liana hurriedly held up an umbre and walked in front of him, shielding him from


    the rain.


    *Mr. Laurence, I’m so sorry” Liana said.


    It was her fault foring to see Ms. Shultz without Mr. Laurence’s permission.


    She thought that by exining everything, Eleanor might consider returning back to Mr. Laurence, but


    she didn’t expect this oue.


    Raindrops fell from Bernard’s forehead,nding on his thick eyshes, making him shiver slightly.


    He looked at Liana with his cold eyes, “I’m done with her. Don’t ever mention me in front of her again.”

    Liana was taken aback, finding it hard to ept this oue, “Mr. Laurence, Eleanor did love you.”


    Bernard smiled faintly, “Liana, the only person she loves is Garett.”


    Seeing him like this, Liana frowned, “Mr. Laurence, she just admitted to loving you very much. It’s just


    that when she tested you, all she got was disappointment. That’s why things turned out this way.”


    Bernard’s cold gaze gradually reddened.


    He lowered his eyes, looking at his right hand.


    When she saw his hand earlier, she cried. It was the first time she had cried for him.


    Was this what it meant to have been loved? Why couldn’t he feel anything at all.


    He turned his head, looking at the petite figure in the distance. After a long silence, he said to Liana,


    “Liana, she loves Garett more…”


    Maybe she once loved him, butpared to Garett, the one who had hurt her countless times, what


    did he even mean to her?


    Liana tightly gripped the umbre, anxiously saying, “Mr. Laurence, I think Ms. Shultz’s guilt towards


    Garett is greater than her love. If you had exined everything earlier, she might not have chosen


    Garett. But you were toote, and she had already made a promise to take care of him for the rest of


    her life. If you had exined earlier.”


    Bernard hid his reluctance and interrupted her, “Liana, just let it go. Don’t make her feel bad.”


    For Eleanor, Garett was more than just a first love. How could she let go of a rtionship that had been


    dependent on each other since childhood?


    It was because he knew she couldn’t let go of Garett that he used Garett to threaten her.


    In fact, when he took her to see Garett, he knew she would never return to his side. But he still tried to


    fight for her. After hearing his exnation, she only replied with an apology.


    He knew that no matter what he said or how he exined, she would never choose him. And he didn’t


    have anything good to exin, as he had indeed


    hurt her.


    Getting her forgiveness now was already the greatest mercy he could expect. How could he hope that


    she would choose him?


    Bernard suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and jumped into the car.


    Liana stood there, watching the Koenigsegg disappear from sight.


    She sighed deeply, guessing this was what people called a missed opportunity.


    The man in the car suddenly told the driver to stop when they passed a certain street.


    Aldyn immediately hit the brakes and turned to ask Bernard, “Mr. Laurence, what’s wrong?”


    The man looked at the bodyguard in the passenger seat coldly, “You escort her home, and don’t get


    close to her.”


    The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, then quickly understood, responding with a ‘yes‘ before


    grabbing an umbre and getting out of the car.
