Chapter 1244

Facing the indifferent Bernard, the folks from the Laurence and Pine families weren’t overly concerned, it was more Garett who felt awkward..

He wasn’t comfortable around this couple, always feeling like he was a third wheel.

Seeing him hanging his head, seated in a wheelchair, not saying a word, Hailey, who had already changed her clothes, took the initiative to sit next to him and strike up a

conversation.

With Hailey’s company, Garett’s loneliness began to fade, and he slowly gathered the courage to lift his head and look toward Eleanor, who was sitting quietly opposite him.

Her hand was held by a man’s large one, resting on his thigh, an intimate gesture that could only come naturally after countless practices.

Feeling the intensity of his gaze, Eleanor hesitated for a second, then slowly raised her head. As her eyes met Garett’s, she gave a faint smile.

Seeing that pure smile, Garett realized Eleanor had made peace with the situation and was no longer feeling awkward, encouraging him not to be shy and to be honest.

After letting out a bitter smile inside, Garett also showed a smile in response to hers.

Their mutual smiles were caught by Robin, who was sneakily watching Eleanor.
