A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 277

After Yilia left, Eleanor seemed a bit dazed, as if she hadn’t expected Bernard not only to save Garett but also to hire someone to take care of him.

Seeing her in a daze, Garett knew what she was thinking. He gently put down the fork in his hand and looked at her with a complex expression. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Eleanor, over the past three years, Bernard has done a lot to keep me alive…

It seems like he’s trying to atone for something in this way I don’t know what he’s atoning for, but I know he loves you very much,”

Garett said these words, making up for not being honest with Eleanor back then.

He breathed a sigh of relief but couldn’t help but look at her, trying to see if she still loved Bernard after three years.

Eleanor lowered her eyes, hiding her emotions, and softly asked him, “You’re obviously still alive, so why did the news report that you were dead?”

Instead of answering his question, she chose to evade, either still in love with Bernard or having let him go.

Garett didn’t dare to ask further, afraid that the answer would be unbearable, so he answered her question instead.

“Someone wanted to get rid of me, so Bernard put out fake news to protect me…”

On the night Garett tried to commit suicide, those people saw that he hadn’t succeeded and rushed out impatiently, shooting at him.

Bernard swiftly pushed him aside, shielding him from harm while simultaneously confronting their assailants.

If it weren’t for Bernard’s men hearing the gunfire and subduing those people in time, Garett would have died in the cemetery long ago.

After telling Eleanor what happened, he said, “Bernard was seriously injured while saving me…

So, no matter what, he couldn’t hide these things from Eleanor.

Eleanor’s heart trembled a little, but she forced herself not to show it: “Garett, who wanted to get rid of you?”

Seeing that she didn’t mention Bernard, Garett knew she was avoiding the subject, so he didn’t dare to ask what happened between them and just replied, “It was the Clowers family.”

Bernard found out the truth overnight, and it was the Clowers family who wanted to get rid of him.

When Garett knew that Colter was still loyal to him, he let him go to A City with his ‘ashes‘, pretending Garett was already dead….

Now that the Clowers family thought he was dead, he could stay here peacefully, holding on to a belief, waiting for his Eleanor.

Eleanor was taken aback for a moment, then furrowed her brows and inquired, “Weren’t the Clowers family kind to you? Why would they want to harm you?”

Garett smiled at her, “Eleanor, sometimes desire can turn people into demons.”

Eleanor wanted to ask for more details, but Garett said, “Eleanor, the less you know about these things, the better.”

She didn’t ask any more questions, just nodded obediently and said, “Let’s eat first.”

Garett looked at her, and his once–desperate heart suddenly felt a warmth.

He picked up his fork, put a shrimp in his mouth, and tasted it slowly.

He hadn’t had an appetite for the past three years. But at this moment, he see
