Chapter 856


    The bodyguard standing by looked genuinely sympathetic, constantly handing him wet wipes


    Once he was pretty much done throwing up, he washed his face, took the bodyguards wet wipe, and


    cleaned his hands. Then he looked at himself in the mirror, gently dabbing the corners of his mouth


    Mrs. Laurence seemed to be getting more and more ballsy. He had to teach her a lesson, or she might


    have the audacity to challenge him


    Just as Bernard was about to go give Eleanor a piece of his mind, Caleb’s call came in


    He nced at the bodyguard and said, “Out. Stand outside. No one gets in”


    The bodyguard nodded and said. “Sure.”


    Once the bodyguard was gone, Bernard swiped to unlock his phone and asked. “Did you find her?”


    Caleb nodded. ‘We found her Sophie’s not dead. She entered the ck market with Mr. Ben”

    Bernard’s expression turned icy in a heartbeat. “Caleb, this is your biggest screw up since you joined


    me!


    Caleb was filled with guilt and said. “I’m sorry I didn’t expect Mr. Ben to betray us I didn’t expect him not


    to get rid of Sophie.”


    Considering Bernard’s identity was revealed in front of Sophie and Mr. Ben knew who he was, Caleb


    was feeling mighty jittery


    “If they tell the ck market who you are, you’re toast. What do we do?”


    Caleb was anxious, if he could turn back time, he’d go back and knock some sense into his past self


    Why didn’t he deal with the issue personally before leaving? What a blunder!


    Dealing with Sophie was ancient history. The ck market hadn’te after him yet


    This suggested Sophie and Mr. Ben hadn’t spilled the beans about his identity. He was safe for now.


    But one thing Bernard couldn’t wrap his head around was why didn’t they use this ace up their sleeve?


    After a few seconds of deep thought, Bernard told Caleb, ‘Don’t tip them off. In half a year, I’ll go to the


    ck market myself to investigate.”


    Hearing Bernard’s n to return to the ck market, Caleb’s face turned pale “You almost got killed


    last time. Why on earth would you go back?”


    Bernard needed to find out who was pulling the strings in the ck market and catch the puppet


    master.


    But he didn’t tell Caleb this His order was, “Find out why Robin is looking for Emilia .”


    Compared to his own life, he was more worried about Eleanor. As long as she was okay, he could rest


    easy.


    Nodding in guilt and anxiety, Caleb said, “Please be careful. I’ll go dig up some info from Katharine


    Spencer.”


    Bernard grunted in response, hung up, and was about to leave when another wave of nausea hit him.


    “Damn it


    He emptied his stomach again, cleaned his lips, and, with a pale face, went back to find Eleanor.


    Pearce and the rest of them seemed to have stronger stomachs than him, after throwing up, they were


    back to their boisterous selves,


    Bernard was nning to go straight to Eleanor, but seeing her radiant smile, he paused


    When he was there, her friends seemed a bit uptight


    When he wasn’t around, the vibe was a lot more rxed.


    In fact, it seemed a bit too rxed


    Bernard frowned. Was he that unwee?


    He refused to believe it and walked into the dining area.


    His towering figure appeared in the dining area, the noise died down instantly, and the smiles on


    people’s faces froze


    It seemed like he really wasn’t very popr.


    Bernard took out his phone, pretended to take a call, then walked out


    As soon as he left, Pearce burst outughing, and even Aidyn seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.


    Bernard gritted his teeth, clutching his phone, leaning against the car door, staring into the dining area
