    Chapter 569


    Watching his retreating figure, Bernard turned to Eleanor and said. “Eleanor, Ms. Vulpe doesn’t know


    you’re back yet. I’ll take you to see her tomorrow”


    Eleanor was thinking the same and promptly nodded, saying, “Great, I was nning to go see her


    tomorrow. I’ve been MIA for half a year She must be worried sick ”


    Cedric overheard their conversation and immediately halted his steps.


    He stood in ce, wavering for a moment, then gritted his teeth and turned back into the dining room.


    The dashing Mr. Laurence stepped up to Eleanor ced his hand on his chest, gave an extremely


    gentleman-like bow, and then sincerely apologized to Eleanor


    “Ms. Schultz, my apologies. I shouldn’t have been rude to you or doubted you. Please forgive my


    lapse”


    Eleanor was taken aback by Cedric’s action. Before she could even react, the man holding her spoke.


    “So, what’s the catch?”


    Cedric, noticing he finally had Bernard’s attention, slowly caught on


    So he had been giving him the cold shoulder just to make him apologize


    In the end, Bernard pinpointed his weak spot, forcing him to apologize, and only then did he engage in


    conversation with him.


    Cedric had no choice but to y along. “Let me be the one to inform Ms. Vulpe of Ms. Schultz’s safe


    return.”


    Bernard stirred his soup, giving Cedric a nonchnt look. “Anything else?”


    Cedric politely replied, 11 personally bring Ms. Vulpe over tomorrow, so the sisters can have a good


    catch-up.”


    The man at the head of the table finally gestured towards the door, saying. You may leave now.”


    Cedric gritted his teeth and walked out.


    Eleanor saw Cedric seething, almost fuming, and couldn’t help but chuckle: You’re protecting me like


    this, I’m going to make enemies.”


    Bernard spooned another mouthful of soup for Eleanor, saying softly yet firmly, “You’re my wife, if I


    don’t protect you, who will?”


    The term “wife” warmed Eleanor’s heart, the sweetness felt like the s***s falling outside, serene and


    beautiful.


    Eleanor made a wish in her heart: to always be happy.


    Then she picked up the soup spoon and fed Bernard


    His stomach wasn’t good, so she’d take care of it from now on.


    As long as Mr. Laurence was healthy, her happiness wouldst.


    Looking at Eleanor, Bernard couldn’t help but feel it was all a dream.


    But this wasnt an illusion, it was real love.


    He set down the spoon, pulled Eleanor into his arms, and lifted his chin slightly, looking into her eyes.


    “Eleanor, when did you fall in love with me?”


    When did she fall in love with him?


    He had never fett her love before. He wanted to know when exactly she fell for him.


    When did she fall for him? This question made Eleanor lower her head.


    After a while she looked up at Bernard meeting his expectant gaze


    Eleanor stared at his handsome face and those hopeful eyes, suddenly feeling at a loss.


    She wasn’t clear when she fell for him either, only knowing that when she realized she was in love with


    him, that feeling had permeated her bones and was impossible to extract.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
