Chapter 426

Eleanor had been in the hospital for days, getting pumped with nutrients, and Bernard was by her side

and took care of her

On the day of her discharge, when Eleanor went to the bathroom to freshen up, Bemard nearly

collapsed.

The bodyguard outside saw this and rushed in to support him, “Mr. Laurence, are you okay?”

Bernard pushed the bodyguard away, leaned against the wall to steady himself, and coldly ordered,

“Get the car.”

Although the bodyguard was worried, he obeyed and quickly left the room.

Bernard sat on the sofa, rubbing his tired temples.

Eleanor came out of the bathroom and saw him sitting there, with his eyes closed, locking unwell.

She walked over with her clothes and before she could speak, he slowly opened his eyes.

“Eleanor, my head hurts a bit. Let me sit for a while, and then I’ll take you back to the villa to pack,

okay?”

Eleanor nodded and took another look at him before asking, “Do you want me to call a doctor?”

Bernard waved his hand, “No need..”

He closed his dull eyes again.

Eleanor hesitated for a few seconds before turning to pack up her things in the room

Soon, the bodyguard returned, “Mr. Laurence, the car is ready. We can go.”

Bernard opened his eyes again and motioned for the bodyguard to help him up.

The long–serving bodyguard understood and supported him.

Bernard leaned on the bodyguard to stand up and walked towards Eleanor, who had her back to him.

“Eleanor, are you done packing?”

Eleanor nodded and was about to pick up the suitcase on the floor.

But Bernard took her hand and gently said, “Let them help you with the luggage.”

After saying this, he led her toward the elevator and then got in the car with her.

Bernard didn’t let anyone help Eleanor pack, perhaps it was a little selfish but all he wanted was to

spend more time with her.

He glanced at the quiet woman beside him and lifted his fingers to touch her wind–blown hair.

But before he could touch it, his fingers stopped mid–air as her hair brushed his fingertips in the

breeze.

The love he wished for and the person he wanted to hold onto were like this. He wanted to grasp it but

dared not, and even if he did, it would be blown away by the

wind.

Sunlight shone into his eyes, making him squint. He released his hand to cover his eldened eyes

instead.

The car soon stopped at the villa’s entrance. This time, Bernard didn’t open the door for her, only

saying, “Eleanor, III wait for you here.”

Eleanor nodded, got out of the car, and walked towards the villa.

The bodyguard driving looked back worriedly at the pale–faced Bernard, “Sir, can you indure this?”

Bernard nodded. He had to at least send her to the airport and see her off before he could rest easy

He didn’t want Eleanor to worry.

Bernard gave a bitter smile.

What was he thinking? Why would she worry about him?

Eleanor’s stuff was mostly packed, and she just needed her phone.

While Bernard wasn’t looking, she had charged her phone and contacted Pearce.

She asked Pearce to go back home first, but he said if she wasn’t going to be with Bernard, he’d wait

for her so they could go back together.

During her hospital stay, Bernard had prepared plane tickets for her and Pearce.

Eleanor sent a message to Pearce, and after agreeing to meet at the airport, she picked up her

belongings and walked out of the villa back to the car

Bernard reached out to her, “Eleanor, let me hold you one more time…”

Eleanor lowered her eyelashes, paused for a few seconds, and then shook her head to refuse

Seeing this, Bernard slowly pulled back his outstretched fingers and gradually clenched them in his

palm.
