Chapter 668


    When Pearce burst into tears, George reached out and patted him on the shoulder “Mc Ziegler left his


    company in your hands before he passed away


    This was a tough challenge, but it was what kept Pearce going


    His mentor who had supported and educated him all his life, was still looking out for him even in death


    Usually a jolly person, Pearce broke downpletely at that moment.


    Eleanor was still sitting in the hospital room, leaning on Bernard’s shoulder, quietly awaiting news.


    Bernard sent Caleb to stop Casey’s private jet, but he wasn’t sure if it had worked


    She found out from George that Casey didn’t allow Nins to go to school, and only taught her how to


    shoot a gun.


    Casey’s endgame was simple he wanted Nina to kill her own father


    Even if Ethan hadn’t let a will, she would never let Nina live with such a crazy foster father


    She had to get Nina back, to give her a home, and let her grow up carefree


    This was the only thing she could do for Emilia and Ethan.


    It was not until the early morning of the next day that Caleb’s call came through


    Eleanor quickly sat up, nervously looking at Bernard’s phone


    Caleb’s clear voice quickly came over the phone


    “St, I’m sorry, something went wrong and we didn’t manage to stop them.


    “You guys couldn’t even handle such a simple task, what the hell are you doing?”


    Caleb was silent for a few seconds, then said troubled, “Ms. Penrod stopped me She said she would


    come to see you personally. She is downstairs at the hospital, hoping you would meet her alone”


    Bernard froze, nced subconsciously at Eleanor. Seeing her downcast look, his heart tightened,


    without hesitation, he said coldly. “Let here up.”


    Then he hung up the phone, his voice softened exining. “There’s nothing going on between Granna


    Pentod and me She probably just wants to discuss organization matters privately, don’t get the wrong


    idea

    Eleanor, hearing this, looked up nkly, “What happened?”


    Bernard paused for two seconds, somewhat disappointed, letting go of her hand, “It’s nothing”


    He thought she was upset because she misinterpreted his rtionship with Gianna, but her mind


    wasn’t on it at all


    Ever since Eleanor heard that they failed to stop Casey, she became distracted Now, she only cares


    about Nina.


    Bernard seemed to understand what was on her mind, he reached out, pulling her tightly into his arms.


    “Eleanor, I will bring the child back”


    Eleanor nodded gently, leaning against his chest, her anxiety gradually subsided. It felt so good to


    have him around.


    Gianna, carrying her designer bag and wearing high heels, stood at the door of the hospital room,


    seeing the two of them leaning closely on each other


    She had never seen Bernard so affectionate, somewhat surprised, so he could be tender to.


    She pretended to clear her throat “Mr. Laurence, may Ie in?”


    Her voice, dignified yet elegant, carried a hint of tenderness that was very pleasing to the ear


    Eleanor looked up, and what she saw was Gianna’s angelically beautiful face


    She leaned against the door frame, seeminglyzy and indifferent. It’s just that her pair of beautiful


    eyes lingered on Bernard’s body all the time.
