Chapter 396


    Eleanor stared at him as if she were looking at the old Bernard, who was often moody


    She was a bit afraid of this side of him, but unlike before, she didn’t choose to stay silent. Instead, she


    tried to find the reason within herself


    She kept recalling their conversation, and then she slowly understood


    She said to the man who was kissing her, Bernard, it’s not that I don’t want a baby, I’m just not mentally


    ready yet. Don’t get me wrong”


    The man who was angry with her suddenly stopped when he heard this exnation, his eyes full of


    quitt


    He held Eleanor weakly and buried his face in her neck


    “Eleanor, I’m sorry, it’s my fault”


    It was his insecurity, his fear that one day she would leave him without looking back.


    This kind of anxiety was tormenting him, making it feel unreal even when he had her.


    As if this was all just a beautiful dream that would shatter one day, it was just a matter of time…


    Seeing him so anxious, Eleanor took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck and kissed his lips.


    “Bernard, I’m already with you, don’t be afraid.


    She took the initiative to kiss him, calling his name softly like she used to…


    Bernard stunned, stared at the woman clumsily kissing him for a few seconds before deepening the


    kiss


    His Eleanor was right, she was already with him, there was no need to be fearful


    Eleanor woke up in a room full of sunshine, feeling like she had slept for a long time and regained


    some energy


    Subconsciously, she turned her head but didn’t see the familiar figure, only heard the sound of water in


    the bathroom.


    Seeing the slender figure reflected on the frosted ss, Eleanor slightly curved her lips


    She got up from the bed, put on her robe, and was about to go to another bathroom when her phone


    on the floor suddenly rang non-stop For the past half month, Pearce and Eleanor had been in contact


    But since Bernard didn’t allow Pearce toe in, they could onlymunicate over the phone


    After leaving the bedroom with her phone, Eleanor asked Pearce, “Has the space agency reced the


    person in charge?”


    After Theo was dismissed, the space agency nned to rece the project manager.


    But half a month had passed, and it was still not done, so Eleanor didn’t start working.


    She needed tomunicate clearly with the other party about the style before she could design


    ording to the client’s requirements.


    This kind of project was not like her sister’s award winning work, which could be designed at will


    Pearce replied, “It’s done I go to the space agency today tomunicate with him and send you the


    requirements after they’re confirmed.”


    Eleanor nodded. “Then I’ll go buy some drawing paper and prepare the tools for sketching…”


    Pearce responded with an “Okay” and was about to hang up when he suddenly remembered


    something and said with confusion, That Theo seems to have not been dismissed, but disappeared


    The folks at the space agency reported it to the police, but they still haven’t found him”


    Hearing this, Eleanor was startled and looked back at the bedroom


    She remembered the night Theo drugged her drink, she vaguely saw Bernard kicking Theo and saying


    something.

    But she was too drowsy at the time to hear clearly what order Bernard had given to his bodyguards.


    She had previously thought that Bernard had given Theo a good scolding which led to his dismissal,


    but she didn’t expect him to disappear
