A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 1270

Eleanor was clutching a piece of paper, sitting by the window, quietly waiting for news from Bernard when Bryson walked in,

“Ma’am, Evan’s back.”

Upon hearing the news, Eleanor was stunned for a moment before her previously lifeless eyes filled with hope.

Evan, who was sitting on the sofa, slowly turned his head at the commotion upstairs…

When she saw Evan’s familiar face, Eleanor’s clear eyes suddenly brimmed with tears.

Eleanor walked over, standing before Evan,

“What about him?”

Evan cast down his eyes, hiding the sorrow in them, and said softly, “He’s… not back yet.”

A pang of anxiety hit Eleanor’s heart, and the hope that had just ignited within her was instantly extinguished. “When can he come back?”
