A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 1282

Eleanor shook her head at Scott. “It’s nothing, just a little sleeping problem. Got the doc to prescribe me some extra pills”

As Scott reached to take the bottle of pills from Eleanor, she smoothly dodged his attempt. “It’s a small thing, I can handle it.”

Scott didn’t press further, his gaze instead fixed on the golden leaf in her hand. From his distance, he hadn’t been able to see the word on the back of the leaf or the accompanying note earlier. All he knew was that it had been delivered to her by a little girl, on behalf of some man.

This was Eleanor’s personal business, and Scott knew better than to pry. After all, his primary job was to ensure Eleanor’s safety, not to meddle in her private affairs.

As Eleanor turned to leave, she spotted Robin lingering by the entrance of the hospital. Tall and lean like Bernard, he stood bathed in backlight, hands in his pockets, waiting for her.

She hesitated for a moment before walking over to him. Robin said to her, “Ride with me.”

After a moment of consideration, Eleanor followed Robin out. Scott wanted to join her, but Robin blocked his path. Just when they were about to argue, Eleanor put a stop to it, “Scott, wait for me outside the car.”

Reluctantly, Scott stood by the vehicle, his gaze fixed on Robin through the tinted windows. Robin, however, was looking past Eleanor’s pale, thin face, to the bottle of pills in her hands, “Are you okay?”

Eleanor gave him a faint smile, “I’m fine.”

After a few seconds of silence, Robin spoke again, “I asked you to go back and clarify things with Evan, then come to me for answers. Is it time?” Confused, Eleanor asked, “Why do you need to know all this?”
