    Chapter 8 2 9


    Cedric took the wheel, driving Bernard and Eleanor to Liana’s vi. As they arrived, Hailey and the


    group emerged,pletely disregarding their driver and rushing towards Eleanor, who was stepping


    out of the backseat


    “Eleanor, it’s been over a month! We’ve missed you” they eximed in unison


    Eleanor beamed, opening her arms and embracing Hailey, followed by Liana Tmissed you guys too.”


    Not to be left out, Nina suddenly appeared out of nowhere,tching onto Eleanor’s leg and looking up


    expectantly, anticipating a warm embrace What about me, what about me she pleaded, a hint of


    mischief in her voice


    “Hurry up and hug me, do I look fatter? Nina inquired, yfully seeking validation. Under Hailey and


    Liana’s care during the month Eleanor was away. Nina had noticeably gained weight


    Eleanor found it a tad challenging to lift Nina, given the added weight she had acquired in just over a


    month


    “Nina, I noticed not only did you get plump.”


    “But prettier too?”


    Hailey and Liana burst intoughter.


    “What Eleanor means is you’ve gotten a lot fatter”


    Only then did Nina catch on, holding her chubby arms tightly, huffing at Eleanor.


    “Hmph, you’re making fun of me, I want a hug from Mr. Laurence.”


    Bernard had just gotten out of the car when a pair of chocte–covered hands reached out to him,


    wanting a hug…


    He looked at the hands, raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of distaste.


    “Wash your hands first”


    Nina, who had just been hit hard, opened her mouth wide to cry, but was choked by Bernard’s words.


    “You look even dirtier when you cry.”


    Nina’s wide open mouth, frozen in surprise, after a while…


    “I’m so mad..”


    Nina clenched her little fists, swearing she’d never talk to Bernard again, he’s too annoying.


    Seeing that Nina was quite upset, Eleanorughed and reached out, touching Nina’s angry and twisted


    face.


    “Nina, we bought you a lot of presents, wanna go see?”


    “Where?!”


    Nina, who had just sworn not to talk to Bernard, immediately changed her attitude when she saw a pile


    of gifts.


    “You’re the best to me!”


    Seeing that Nina was busy unwrapping gifts in the trunk and didn’t have time to bother her, Eleanor


    turned to Yeager who was standing behind Hailey.


    “Is this Dr Yeager?”


    Hailey nodded, stepped aside, allowing Yeager to face Eleanor and Bernard, then introduced


    “This is Yeager, a surgeon.”


    After Hailey’s introduction, Yeager politely extended his hand.


    “Mr. and Mrs. Laurence, nice to meet you”


    His hand was extended towards Bernard, very respectful, but his fingers were slightly trembling


    Bernard lowered his gaze, moving from the trembling fingers to Yeager’s face


    His eyes were like stars in the night sky, bright yet inscrutable


    Although Yeager had met many wealthy people, facing such indifferent eyes still made him nervous.


    He wasn’t scared, it’s just that the man in front of him exuded a natural elegance and nobility.


    As Yeager was staring at Bernard Bernard reached out and gently touched his fingertips, even this


    slight contact surprised Hailey


    But Hailey knew, the only reason Bernard would break convention was for Eleanor.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
