    Bernard Bernard.”


    Eleanor’s agonizing screams pierced through the silent, deste forest, resonating past the cabin and


    striking the heart.


    The blood–soaked man lying on the ground seemed to hear nothing Only utter silence surrounded him.


    Like a dying man, he peered through the dense branches at the figure that was gradually moving


    further away from him


    He wanted to call out Eleanor’s name once more, but no sound woulde out. All he could do was


    watch her silently


    Not until Eleanor hadpletely disappeared from his sight did he slowly close his eyes.


    Eleanor was being forcefully carried on Ethan’s shoulder. She struggled with all her might, desperately


    resisting like a madwoman. “Ethan, let me go. Let me save him. Please let me

    han!”


    Her frantic yell was filled with fear. She couldn’t even begin to imagine what she would be without


    Bernard.


    All she knew was that she had to save him. Even if she couldrit, she wanted to stay by his side. She


    wanted to share life and death with Bernard. She never wanted to be separated from


    him


    1 beg you, let me go to him. Even if it means death, I want to be with him.”


    She had never told him “I love you,” she needed to go back and tell him.

    When Ethan heard that she wanted to die with Bernard, his tone became stern.

    Eleanor’s life and death depended on him!


    Upon hearing this, Eleanor went insane, “If you don’t want me to die, then help me save him. Without


    him, I’ll die anyway“”


    Ethan, carrying Eleanor, said nonchntly, I can’t beat them.”


    Besides, the Laurence family had taken so much from the Ziegler family, why should he save Bernard?


    He had only rushed in earlier to take Eleanor out. With the gun he had in his hand, he could have easily


    taken more people out. He wanted Bernard to die there. Not only could he take revenge for the Ziegler


    family, but he could also have Eleanor’s heart all to himself. How great that would be


    Ethan said gravely, “He’s injured badly, even if he doesn’t die, hell be crippled. There’s no point in


    saving him.”


    Even if he didn’t die, he would be crippled…


    But he’s Bernard. The untouchable, high and mighty Bernard. How could he die, how could he be


    disabled?


    Eleanor couldn’t ept it. She frantically hit Ethan’s back, “I don’t care what state he’s in, I need to go


    back and get him!”


    Ethan furrowed his brows, losing his patience, “So annoying!”


    He quickly put Eleanor down, and as she turned and prepared to run back, he raised his hand, aiming


    at the back of her neck, and pped her hard!


    Eleanor waspletely caught off guard. Her world suddenly turned ck before she had a chance to


    react. Her body went limp, copsing to the ground…
