He got the chills Turning around, he saw a tall man standing at the door, staring at him
The man was shockingly handsome. He cored an aristocratic elegance from head to toe, an intimidating aura that screamed Dont approach Bernard was looking at him with a cautious and even hostile gaze He was a little nervous
He couldn’t recall offending Mr Laurence Why was he looking at him like that?
was freaking scary
Will was puzzled And Eleanor knew why Bernard was seting this way. She was both amused and imitated, shooting Bernard a side glance
“Hold on, go upstairs to get the documents”
The living room was left with only Hailey, Liana, Nina, and Will when she disappeared upstairs.
The first three were used to Bernards frosty demeanor
Only Will seemed awkward on the couch, torn between smiling or conversing
The man standing at the door was eyeing him occasionally looking like an ice sculpture
If Eleanor hadn’t returned quickly, he might have decided to bail out in three seconds
Eleanor walked over to Bernard, naturally taking his arm, and whisked him out of the living room
Watching them leave, Will finally relaxed. But he couldn’t help but feel pity for Eleanor.
She was brave enough to hold the arm of such a cold man
Will had forgotten entirely about their upcoming nuptials
When the car stopped at their destination, Bernard’s hanging heart finally fell
He helped Eleanor out of the car, tightly holding her hand and leading her in
Getting a marriage certificate wasn’t complicated, and they had the documents in hand before long
Bernard was smiling
With this, Eleanor would be his for life No one had the right to take her away. Their marriage was legal now.
Seeing his smile. Eleanor laughed. “Mr. Laurence, feeling relieved now?”
Bernard took her hand bent down, and whispered, “Mrs Laurence, be ready for our wedding the day after tomorrow”
Only after the wedding would he feel genuinely at ease
Eleanor gently agreed and then turned to enter the restroom
As soon as she entered, she heard whispers from the stalls
“Did you see that? Me Laurence is so handsome”
*Besides being handsome, he’s also rich. He’s all decked out in designer gear. His watch alone is worth millions”
“Oh my god, he’s loaded I can’t believe such a handsome and rich man would marry a divorcee. What was he thinking?”
“I’m also surprised Cant believe such a rare catch of a man would marry a divorcee”
“Did you see the picture of Ms. Shultz’s ex–husband? He was handsome too. Such a shame they divorced”
“What’s there to pity? Her current husband is way hotter than her ex if I were her, I’d choose her current husband too!”
She pushed open the door, her face growing darker
Yes, she was divorced, but Bernard had no mamage record
She stood at the door, took a few seconds to shake off her guilt towards her ex-husband and current husband, and stepped in
She owed Garett an apology She loved Bernard Having deaded to choose Bernard, the gossip of others couldn’t change her mind
When she returned from the restroom, she saw Bernard carefully putting the marriage certificate into a safe.
Eleanor was flabbergasted. The man actually brought a safe?
She walked over in surprise and reached out to Bernard, “Give me a copy”
Bernard looked up and said, “I keep it”
In case of disputes in the future, if she wants a divorce, she wont have the marriage certificate.
