Before Eleanor could finish, Bernard cut her off 1 get it, you don’t wanna hang out at my villa. But have
you thought about who you know in W City, or where you can go?”
His voice wastinged with a hint of desperation in his anger “Why won’t you let me help you when you’re
in trouble like this? Do you hate me that much?”
Despite his numerous attempts to get close to her and show his feelings, she remained indifferent. But
why was she still resisting him when she needed his help the most?
So just because she didn’t love him, she could just ignore his feelings?

“Do you think I was about to leave?”
When she saw Bernard didn’t respond, she knew she was right
She took a deep breath and patiently explained, “It’s too stuffy in the car, I just wanted to get some air”
After explaining, she added: 7 know W City is dangerous, and I wont wander around. As for not
wanting to go to your villa, it’s not because I hate you I just don’t want to owe you any favors”
Her words seemed to calm Bernard down a bit.
He let go of her arm, straightened up, and turned his head to put out his cigarette
After putting the cigarette into the car’s ashtray, he looked at Eleanor
“You’ll never owe me anything”
I have people help retrieve your lost items. Meanwhile, you’ll have to put up with staying at my villa.”
Seeing him like this, Eleanor didn’t say no. She just pressed her lips together and chose to remain
silent
Bernard glanced at her, his heart aching, but he also kept silent. He started the car again and drove
towards the villa

His private villa was massive. It was surrounded by gardens, and a high white fence wrapped around a
thorny rose bush. The sunlight cast mottled shadows, highlighting the luxury of the place
Bernard drove the car into the garden, parked in front of the villa, and got out He walked around to the
passenger side and opened the door for her
Seeing that Eleanor seemed a bit stunned, he leaned against the car door, bent down slightly and
asked her. “You wanna get out yourself, or should I carry you?”
Hearing that he wanted to carry her, Eleanor quickly snapped back to reality and got out of the car
She then stood there, looking at the luxurious villa, feeling a bit at a loss.

Seeing her looking scared, Bernard remained silent for a few seconds before stepping forward,
grabbing her hand, and leading her into the vita
Caleb, who was inside the villa, saw Bernard returning with Eleanor from a distance. He immediately
stood up from the sofa and went into the study
Bernard glanced in the direction of the study, pretending not to notice, and led Eleanor into the living
room of the villa
The servants in the living room saw him return and immediately came forward. “Mr. Laurence, is there
anything you need?”
Bernard looked at Eleanor’s dress and said casually, Get her some clean clothes”
After the servants respectfully responded, they quickly left, leaving just the two of them in the spacious
living room.
Eleanor looked down at their interlocked hands, trying to pull away, but he held on tightly
“Mr. Laurence, you ”
“Ms Shutz”
Bernard cut Eleanor off, turned around, and looked down at her: “Did you forget about last night? You
were all over me. Are you really afraid to hold hands with me?”
