Chapter 1024


    After spending about ten minutes in Nina’s room, Eleanor finally emerged. Bernard was waiting for her


    by the stairs and as soon as he saw her, he moved to scoop her up like a princess.


    As he carried her outside, Bernard murmured in a deep and slightly hoarse voice, “Darling, if you want


    to hit Ms. Vulpe’s club, I’ll take you. Can you chill out now?”


    His tone sounded like he had been wronged and felt helpless, but it only strengthened Eleanor’s


    resolve. “I’m going alone.”


    Bernard stiffened, and a sh of anger crossed his handsome face. “Eleanor, you know I care about


    you so much.”


    “You care so much that you always ignore me?” Eleanor retorted.

    His brows furrowed at her response. “I’m trying to change.”


    He leaned in and nted a light kiss on her lips, pleading, “Give me another chance.”


    Although Eleanor was swayed by his gesture, she remained firm, “I’ve promised Gianna.”


    His lips tightened, and his face turned cold. After staring at Eleanor for a while, he set her down without


    a word and returned to his study.


    The moment the door closed, Eleanor’s heart skipped a beat. His anger was really scary.


    But… Eleanor decided to brave his wrath and go find Scott.


    As they left the estate, Scott tried to dissuade her, “Madam, going to the club thiste will upset Mr…”


    Eleanor knew this would hurt him, but his neglect hurt her too, “I’m just going to take a look, I won’t do


    anything crazy.”


    Seeing her stubbornness, Scott could only look helplessly out of the window, spotting over a dozen


    luxury cars following them.


    Scott shook his head, their little squabbles always ended up causing trouble for the drivers, just their


    luck…


    Eleanor met Gianna in the super VIP room, and they ordered a ton of food.


    Every now and then, Hailey would drop by. Thinking the crowd was too small, she invited Liana.


    Gianna had met Sigrid before and thought she was cool, so she invited her too.


    What started as a two–person gathering had turned into a party of five, singing and ying games,


    having the time of their lives.


    Outside the club, a man in a car rested his arm on the window.


    His cold eyes stared at the club’s lights, but every so often, he nced at his watch, the second.

    hand ticking away.


    Seeing that it was already three and no one hade out, he pushed open the car door and quickly


    strode into the VIP room on the top floor.


    His sudden appearance startled everyone. When nna, Hailey, Liana, and Sigrid saw who it was,


    they shared a knowing smile.


    Bernard’s gaze was icy as he quickly scanned the sofas, relieved to find no handsome waiters, he


    walked over and grabbed Eleanor’s wrist.


    “Enough ying, we’re going home.”


    Eleanor raised an eyebrow at his grip.


    “We’re not done yet, no need to rush.”


    “Is that so?”


    The four people present were startled to their feet by Bernard’s intimidating gaze.


    “We’re done here, let’s all head home…”


    “Wait, didn’t we agree to party all night?”


    Eleanor grabbed Gianna’s hand, signaling her to resist Bernard.


    But Gianna shook her head, “I’m so sleepy. I can’t do it…”


    Eleanor was speechless.


    Gianna shook off her hand and ran off like a rabbit being chased by a wild beast.


    Eleanor turned to Hailey, Liana, and Sigrid, “What about you guys?”


    The three of them didn’t even say goodbye before they sprinted off, moving as fast as rockets.
