Her voice was so faint, as if it took all her strength and courage just to call out his name
The rain was pouring down, drenching her body…
She lay there in the dirty water, lifelessly looking up at the night sky
Suddenly, she laughed
Even the heavens seemed to be mocking her stupidity.
What gave her the courage to give each other another chance, despite being hurt once befom?
Couldn’t even one death wake her up?
How much did she have to love Bernard to choose to walk down the same path again?
Eleanor suddenly laughed as she thought of the past pain.
With her scraped hands, she pushed herself up from the ground. Maybe it was because she didn’t want to give up, or maybe it was to finally let herself give up.
She staggered towards the hotel, but before she could enter, she was stopped by dozens of security guards.
“Miss, this place is for the Royal Family of Arvandor only. Outsiders are not allowed in please leave as soon as possible.”
Royal Family of Arvandor
A background that she could never reach in her lifetime
Yet she still dreamed that such a man would marry her.
Eleanor seemed to understand everything and nodded to the security guards.
“Alright, I’ll go.”
She turned around and walked down the steps, her figure looking incredibly frail in the wind and rain.
She wanted to wait for an outcome, so she didn’t really leave but chose to sit on a blerjch in the distance.
She sat there in the pouring rain, watching the hotel entrance, In this unfamiliar country, she waited alone for the man who said he loved her.
She kept thinking in her heart, if he came out now, she would believe whatever he sai
But…
Eleanor waited all night.
She waited until the rain stopped and the sun came out.
People on the street stared at her with curiosity.
The man who once promised to take her to see the aurora never showed up.
She lifted her numb legs, put them on the bench, hugged her knees, and buried her head in her arms.
After curling up, she found a sense of security.
This sense of security made her suddenly feel like an abandoned child, and she hugged herself tightly and burst into tears.
She had never been so sad before, not even when he slapped her in the face.
This was the second time she felt despair with the same man. No one could understand such extreme pain and despair.
But she didn’t blame anyone, only herself.
She knew very well that Bernard was stubborn. Once he got what he wanted, he would lose interest in it.
But she still accepted him again after his repeated requests.
She had never made the right decision. So she endured the pain from the same manwice.
She had to go through the pain of hope to disappointment, and then to despair again
She cried in pain, as if trying to cry out all the grievances of the past eight years.
Such grievances, despair, and the inferiority of not even being able to face him, made her feel like breaking down.
She didn’t have a superior background, a high education, or knowledge of multiple languages, and even her knowledge of design was leamed from her sister.
How could such a nobody like her expect to get Bernard’s unattainable love?
As Eleanor cried in extreme pain, her phone suddenly rang in her pocket.
She took out her rain–soaked phone while still sobbing
She couldn’t stop the tears as she saw the name displayed on the screen.
She didn’t answer Pearce’s call but just glanced at the message he sent
[The design is ready, and the space agency is very satisfied. The first project is succesfully completed I’m coming back, are you?]
Eleanor slowly raised her head and looked at the hotel entrance.
Bernard, I had tried my best this time and been brave enough, but loving you is really bring
