Eleanor lifted her head, looking at the person who was speaking. “What’s your game?”
Bernard’s sister, hands on hips and high heels clicking, strutted up to Eleanor, “We should off her”
The way the Pine family treated the Laurence family, is exactly how the Laurences would treat the Pine family. No one had it easy
Eleanor wondered, when would this cycle of vengeance end? Wasn’t it just fueling the fire of hatred?
But this idea, the Laurence family wouldn’t buy it. They thought if divorce wasn’t on the table then killing her was fair game How cold blooded.
Eleanor was a bit lost. She looked at Blake, “Blake, you should consider Bernard’s feelings.”
Using Bernard’s feelings to threaten him, that was a laugh, “Ms. Elena, in this world, no one is indispensable”
Just like Bernard’s father, he lost that woman, yet he still married Donna Stanley Laurence, had kids, and Bernard could do the same.
Eleanor looked down at her own wnst, thinking of the four scars on Bernard’s wrist, and fell into deep thought, “He’s tried to off himself four times for me. The love between Bernard and me, it’s the kind that was even more important than life itself. If either of us lost the other, we’d seek death. Do you really want to see him
dead?”
Her words struck a chord in Blake. He remembered the scenes of Bernard being saved time and time again. His eyes showed a glimmer of pity. “Of course I don’t want him to die, so I want you to divorce him. If you agree to the divorce, I’ll ensure your safety”
Eleanor clutched her throbbing arm, her plea filled with desperation, “We’ve shared so many years together. Can’t you see that we wouldn’t just dissolve our mamage like that?”
She exerted all her efforts to sway the old man, hoping he could release his animosity and cease meddling in their union. However, Blake remained unyielding, his voice stern, “You must divorce. It is imperative that you part ways!”
Eleanor yearned to question why their togetherness was deemed impossible, but befere she could utter a word, Bernard’s sister intervened, curtly cutting her off, “Don’t bother explaining to her. It’s futile. Once our brother arrives, he will owe us an explanation.”
“Arlene speaks the truth. He owes us an explanation. This predicament cannot be remedied through divorce alone! We require answers!”
This group of relatives, previously exiled by Bernard, seized the opportunity to reclaim their stake in the Laurence Group, hence their alliance with Blake. They sought to exploit him once more, ensnaring him in an unspeakable secret. Deep dowit all Blake truly desired was to separate Eleanor from Bernard, employing any means necessary, even lending support to the rest of the Laurence family in tormenting her
No matter what these people said, Eleanor had Bryson open the door and let them in
Scott, fearing Blake would get violent again, stuck close to Eleanor.
After Eleanor led everyone in, she had the servants make tea and took her seat at the head of the table.
Blake told Eleanor to stand, saying she didn’t deserve to sit at the head, but Eleanor didn’t back down this time
“Blake, I’m still my husband’s wife, so I’m the lady of this house. It’s only fitting that it here.”
She leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed, looking every bit the mistress of the house, which made Blake a bit uncomfortable.
“Alright, let’s see how long you can keep up this charade!”
Once they were divorced, Eleanor would be like a stray dog, kicked out of the Laurenior family!
Eleanor’s confidence stemmed from her belief that Bernard wouldn’t divorce her, so she waited patiently.
