“You don’t like this soup?”
He put down the food in his hand, picked up another bowl, and brought it to her mouth again, gesturing with his eyes for her to open up.
It wasn’t until the warm soup touched her lips that Eleanor came back to her senses from disbelief.
She didn’t say anything, just blankly opened her mouth, and slowly eat the soup.
“Want some more?”
After feeding her a spoonful, Bernard picked up the bowl next to them, intending to continue feeding her.
Eleanor quickly shook her head: “I’m full.”
Only then did Bernard put down the bowl and picked up a napkin to wipe the corners of her mouth.
He looked her up and down with a bland gaze, seemingly not pleased with her being too skinny, coldly asking, “How did you lose so much weight?”
When he held her, he felt that her waist had no fat, just hard bones.
He had noticed that she had lost a lot of weight before, but he didn’t expect her to lose weight to this extent.
That tiny face was also sickly, and her eyes were even more lacking any luster.
After Eleanor knew his feelings for her, she didn’t feel as touched by his care as before.
She lowered her eyes nonchalantly and replied faintly, “I lost weight for a friend’s wedding.”
Bernard knew about Hailey’s existence and also knew that Eleanor had just attended her wedding recently, so he believed her. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
He didn’t ask any more questions, but instead reminded her, “Make sure to eat more after you recover.”
Eleanor nodded gently. “Okay.”
The two fell silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Seeing him sitting next to her without intending to leave, Eleanor couldn’t help but speak up, “Mr. Laurence, please help me find my bag.”
Her bag had been left in the Grandview Hotel’s banquet hall, with her phone and other items inside, She didn’t know if someone had picked it up for her.
She wasn’t actually too worried about those things, mainly worried that Hailey wouldn’t be able to find her.
Bernard was still somewhat bothered by her calling him ‘Mr. Laurence‘.
Although Eleanor had called him Mr. Laurence before, he didn’t feel distant at all.
But now, every time she called him that, it made him feel like Eleanor was getting farther and farther away from him.
He frowned slightly, getting rid of the uncontrollable thoughts in his head, took out his phone, and called Aidyn
After leaving the city hospital, Aidyn had no choice but to go back and grab Eleanor’s bag from Jason.
Aldyn, holding the bag, looked at the small white purse in his hand, couldn’t help but shake his head and lament that this was the most childish thing he had ever done in his life.
Aidyn brought the bag into the villa, handed it to Bryson, then turned around to the study to report the latest situation to Bernard.
“Mr. Laurence, Jason is sending people to search for Ms. Shultz everywhere. It seems he won’t give up until he finds her.”
“And also, Ms. Ratliff is looking everywhere for the woman you were carrying yesterday. I’m worried that if this continues, your mother will be alerted.”
Just mentioning his mother made Aidyn break out in cold sweats, not to mention what the consequences would be if she found out about this.
“Let Liana handle Sophie. As for Jason…”
A chill flashed through Bernard’s eyes, and he felt very uncomfortable mentioning this name.
“Let him search.
If Jason could find her, that would be his ability.
As for whether he would let Jason see Eleanor, that wouldn’t be up to him to decide.
