Eleanor retumed to her living room and promptly dialed Bernard, divulging everything about Robin’s unexpected drop in
Already informed by his bodyguard, Bernand reassured her in a soothing tone, “Stay calm, Eleanor. I’ve got this.”
He had been alerted by his bodyguard and had already reached out to Y Country, instructing them to monitor Blake.
If Robin intended to expose Eleanor, Blake would be his first target. So Bernards strategy was to keep Blake busy. The rest would be easy.
On heanng his calm yet affectionate voice, Eleanor’s anxiety began to recede, “That’s good I was worried sick.”
Seated in his office, the man chuckled softly, a smile gracing his lips, ‘Don’t stress. Leave everything to me.” No matter what the situation, this was his go–to phrase “Okay, with you around, I won’t worry.”
A smirk appeared on Remard’s face. “If you want to step out, have Scott tag along. Don’t be scared of anyone.”
Scott was just Scott, one of Bernard’s assistants alongside Caleb: He’d been assigned to keep Eleanor safe.
He’d been prepared for Eleanor’s identity to be exposed. He seemed to have everything under control, showing no signs of panic.
Eleanor, phone in hand, sweetly replied ‘Okay, thanks honey, hung up and went back to her design sketches.
Bernard, putting down his phone, turned his stern gaze to Taylor, “The project in North Funland is wrapped up. Why don’t you go have a vacation abroad?”
His father had been killed by Jensen Pine. If Robin was planning to make trouble for the Laurence family using Eleanor’s background, he wanted his loyal brother to stay out of it to avoid any resentment towards Eleanor.
Hearing this, Taylor slapped Kendrick Laurence’s thigh in surprise, “Did you hear that? He’s actually giving me a vacation. I’m not hearing things, am I?”
Kendrick, lounging on the couch, arms crossed, glanced at Taylor, “What’s the big deal? It’s just a vacation. I haven’t had one in a year, and you don’t see me freaking out
Kendrick looked at Bernard, “I haven’t had a vacation in a year! Some people take a month off for their honeymoon, some get breaks for every project, and I haven’t had a single day off. Must be nice for those in aerospace research, not needing any breaks..”
Taylor chided, “Quit your whining, didn’t you get a week off when you got married? Bernard’s been more than fair”
Kendrick snorted, “Do you know why I don’t have a kid yet?”
Taylor asked, “Because you can’t have one?”
Kendrick glared at him, “Because I can’t? Because I don’t have time, okay?! I spend every day in the lab, I can hardly remember what my wife looks like, let alone have a kid”
Kendrick looked at Bernard, grinding his teeth, “I haven’t had a vacation in a year, I need a break!”
Bernard, expressionless, said, “You can’t take a vacation until the lab project is finished”
Kendrick angrily stood up to leave, “I don’t want to stay here…”
Taylor waved, “Take care”
