Inside the Dean’s office, Eleanor and Beinard were sitting on the couch, anxiously waiting for the DNA test results.
Bernard’s hand was clutching Eleanor’s tightly, the heat from his palm seeming to seep into her skin.
Although his facial expression didn’t show much change, Eleanor could sense his tension
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine,” Eleanor tried to reassure him
Then she lightly tickled his palm, hinting for him to relax But Bernard turned to Eleanor and asked,
“What if Wendy Pine really is the adopted daughter of the Pine family? Then we’d still be cousins and siblings. What would you do?”
Elbert once mentioned that one of the three sisters wasn’t a biological daughter of the Pine family That meant, apart from Vanya and Tammie Pine, Robin Spencer’s mother. Wendy Pine, also had a 30% chance of being adopted.
Although Eleanor had her suspicions about her mother not being a biological Pine, until the DNA results came out, everything was up in the air. Bernard was worried about
the unknowTI
Eleanor had thought about this issue. Could she cross moral boundaries for Bernard?
In her heart, if it were for Bernard, she could try to accept it. But then, they wouldn’t be able to have children…..
Because of the child issue, Eleanor hesitated and didn’t immediately respond to Bernard’s question. Misinterpreting her silence as hesitation, Bernard let go of her hand and stood up
“Where are you going?” Eleanor asked.
“To the bathroom,” Bernard replied.
Then he quickly left the Dean’s office to find Liana, who was handling the DNA test.
“Mr. Laurence, the results aren’t ready yet. Don’t worry,” Liana said when she saw Bernard hurriedly enter, assuming he was anxious to see the results.
But Bernard didn’t respond. He walked up to Liana and coldly instructed,
“If the results show we’re siblings, change the report.”
Hearing this command, Liana’s hand shook, and she looked up at Bernard, not believing he’d ask her to do such a thing.
“This isn’t really appropriate, is it?” Liana tried to argue.
But Bernard wasn’t having it. He coldly said, “Being without Eleanor is not appropriate.”
He wanted Eleanor as his wife, even if it meant resorting to underhanded methods. So what?
Bernard admitted his thoughts were selfish, but so what?
He had made so many efforts to get Eleanor, he couldn’t lose her over something like this.
“You’ve done fake DNA reports before. I believe it’s not difficult for you” Bernard said before turning to leave.
Liana stood dumbstruck as she watched Bernard leave.
She had done a fake DNA report for Eleanor before Was Bernard subtly hinting at that?
Looking at the DNA numbers in her hand, Liana slightly smiled. If he wanted a fake report, so be it!
Bernard was gone for quite a while. By the time he returned, Eleanor was nearly asleep. “You were gone for so long,” she said.
Bernard sat next to her and calmly said, “The bathroom here isn’t very clean”
Eleanor, without any doubt, tightly hugged his arm and leaned against his shoulder. She softly said, “You asked me what I’d do if Wendy Pine was the one adopted by the Pine family. I’ve thought about it. I can live without children. As long as I have you, I’m willing to live like this for the rest of my life/
Bernard
If he knew she’d say that, he wouldn’t have had to go find Liana
Somewhat helplessly, he put his arm around Eleanor’s waist and gently pinched her, saying, “Next time I ask you something, answer me right away”
Eleanor was a bit confused, leaning on his shoulder and looking at him sideways. I’ll answer anything you ask; just give me time to think first.”
She’s a bit slow to react, needing some time to mull things over in her head Otherwise, she might say something without thinking and hurt someone’s feelings
Hearing her say this. Bernard reached up and stroked her face, his eyes filled with tenderness. “Next time, I’ll wait for you to finish.”
Just then, they heard three knocks from outside the door, followed by Liana’s voice: “Mr. Laurence, Eleanor, the DNA results are out.”
