A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 18

The faint scent from him mingled with the smell of alcohol, quickly stirring her emotions.

Eleanor felt flustered under his piercing gaze as he got closer, so she shuffled towards the car door.

Bernard rested his hand on the window, enclosing the petite Eleanor in his arms.

His icy eyes swept over her before settling on the diamond necklace around her neck.

Since Josef introduced her as his girl, there was no point in explaining.

Bernard noticed her silence and lack of defense, his expression quickly shifted.

He raised his long hand and grazed it from her cheek, brushing back towards her ear.

The instant his fingers touched her skin, Eleanor shivered uncontrollably.

Bernard’s touch, compared to Josef’s, filled her with fear.
