A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 597
The man was messing around with the safe on the table. After Bernard finished inputting the password on the safe, he raised his
head and called her over. “Come here” When he said these two words it reminded Eleanor of the past it was also at No. 8
Mansion when he first spotted her. The phrase he said to her the most was “Come here”
Back then, he was bossy and heartless, but now he was full of warmth. He showed her all his tenderness.
Eleanor walked up to him. Before she could stand straight, the man had her in his arms. He hugged her from behind and opened
the safe on the table
When Eleanor saw the cream colored scarf, her photo, and a letter mended with countless strips of tape inside, she was stunned
She reached out to touch the scarf and lowered her head She thought hard, then she remembered that these were the
belongings she left at No. 8 Mansion.
But that photo was a picture of her sleeping face.
She picked up the photo, “When did you take this?”
“You wanted to leave me a picture before, so
He didnt finish his sentence, but Eleanor understood.
That year, she thought she was dying and begged him to take a picture of her hoping he would keep it as a memento.
Bernard angrily refused back then. This was probably because he had heard her calling Garett’s name in her dream.
Eleanor thought there would be no progress after his refusal, but surprisingly, he sneakily took a picture. It eased some of her
regret.
“Eleanor, during those three years, I would look at this picture and miss you.”
Without this picture, the Eleanor in his illusion would have been blurry That’s how he survived so many difficult days and nights.
Eleanor heard him and kissed his forehead, “Let’s forget about the past. Now I’m here with you, you don’t need to rely on the
picture anymore.”

She put the photo back into the safe, “In the future, Ill take more photos with you”
He had been haunted by the past. Hearing her promise, Bernard felt his heart gradually fill with warmth
Eleanor’s fingers touched the letter taped together, I remember tearing it up.
“Anything you left for me, even if it was torn, I mended it”
Just like their relationship. Even when it was shattered, he would do his best to mend it. If he didn’t, would there have been a
present?
Eleanor scolded him for being a fool, but her fingers picked up the brief farewell note. Seeing the naive handwriting she once left,
and a few more lines written below, her eyes gradually reddened
[Bernard
He said, don’t dream that I will love you
So, he doesn’t love me]
The following is his handwriting:
[Eleanor
Actually, I have fantasized about you falling in love with me.
Unfortunately, you don’t love me]
The ink handwriting had been smudged many times, becoming blurred. It looked like it was written a long, long time ago.
Eleanor guessed that maybe he picked it up, taped it together, and then wrote these words after she tore the letter into pieces.
She did not know what kind of pain the man had gone through at that time. However, he did write these three lines in response to
her. She just knew, when she held the crumpled letter, she
couldn’t help but shed tears
Some people said, when you’re obsessed with something, or are missing someone, there will always be a response

And she, finally got his response
