Chapter 414


    Before Eleanor could touch the ss, her wrist was grabbed by Teresa.


    “Ms. Shultz, you’ve seen how he treats you, why can’t you just give up?”


    Teresa held an umbre, looking down at Eleanor, who was soaked and miserable in the rain.


    “Poor thing. If you’d listened to me earlier, you wouldn’t be in this mess”


    Eleanor broke free of Teresa’s grip and shot her a re before stubbornly trying to knock on the


    window again.


    Teresa quickly blocked her with the umbre in her hand, her gaze bing more and more


    contemptuous.


    “Ms. Shultz, you just begged the security guard to let you in to see Bernard. He didn’te out. What


    does that tell you?”


    “It means he doesn’t want to see you. He’s so heartless, why can’t you give up?”


    Eleanor’s clenched fist dug into her palm, breaking the skin and drawing blood.


    She had no mood or energy to argue with Teresa, but Teresa wouldn’t stop nagging


    “Ms. Shultz, snap out of it.”


    “Bernard only thought you were pretty and had a nice body, good enough for him to y with in bed.


    That’s why he was with you”


    “Now that he’s found new prey, he’s lost interest in you. Don’t think that just because the hasn’t said the


    words ‘break–up’ means he still loves you!


    “Men in this world use silent treatment to force women to take the initiative to break up. You should


    know this very well, right?”


    “So just stop it. No one’s watching. Bernard won’t feel sorry for you, so why bother..


    Eleanor, who had been holding back, finally pped Teresa hard across her face after hearing these


    harsh words.

    *Shut up!!!*


    Teresa stood there, seemingly not expecting weak Eleanor to hit her, and she trembled with anger.


    She raised her hand to p back, but her wrist was caught by Eleanor.


    Before Teresa could fight back, she was pushed to the ground by Eleanor.


    Eleanor stepped on Teresa, who was trying to get up.


    It was as if she was venting all her anger on her, stepping hard on her heart.


    If it weren’t for Teresa’s bodyguard rushing over in time to push Eleanor away, Teresa might have been


    crushed to death…


    Teresa, who had power and influence in W City, couldn’t let this nobody get away whit


    “Hold her down!”


    After ordering her bodyguard to hold Eleanor down, Teresa raised her hand to p her in the face.


    At that moment, a group of people in ck suits walked out of the restaurant, and Teresa spotted


    Bernard among them.


    Scared, she quickly withdrew her hand, waved her bodyguards to retreat, and ran away.


    Eleanor saw Teresa suddenly leave in a panic and turned to look at the man who appeared at the


    restaurant entrance.


    “Bernard…”


    Just as she was about to call his name, she saw him open arge ck umbre for Gianna.


    He never looked back at her. Eleanor didn’t know if he didn’t see her or he was deliberately ignoring


    her.


    She just stared nkly at the man who once said he’d make up for the rest of her life, holding an


    umbre for another woman….


    Eleanor reassured herself, it was normal for the ever–gentlemanly Bernard to hold an umbre for his


    business partner in the pouring rain.


    She mustered up the courage to follow the group….


    “Bernard!”


    She ran and called his name. But he didn’t react, maybe because of the loud rain or some other


    reason.


    Eleanor had to speed up, but they walked fast as if they had important business, and she couldn’t keep


    up.


    When Eleanor was out of breath, the group suddenly stopped in front of a very luxuncus hotel.


    She thought Bernard was just taking Gianna to rest, but then she saw him walking into the hotel side by


    side with nna…


    Eleanor’s heart sank, and she hurriedly chased after them, but slipped and fell on the ground


    Lying on the ground, she watched his figure and whispered softly-


    “Bernard…”
