Beard held Eleanor tight feeling the warmth of her body His heart was numb from the pain, and was
just now starting to calm down,

He slowly let go of Eleanor, looking at her soaked body, shivering from the cold. His heart ached again.
should apologize if it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t be in this mess”
“What are you talking about? Wew husband and wife. We share the good times and the bad”
Eleanor finished, looking down at her hand only to find it covered in blood. She immediately turned pale
“Your back wound must have opened. We need to get to an ambulance right away”
She had thought it was seawater but it turned out to be blood. Her back wound must have reopened!
Eleanor tightly held Remard’s hand and began leading him towards the walling ambulance However,
Bernard abruptly pulled her back.

His attention then shifted to Gianna, who stood nearby. With determination in his eyes. Bernard
commanded, “Arrest her and inform Mr. Penrod. Tell him to personally come and retrieve her or else
she won’t
Addressing Aidyn, he added. “Take care of it”
Gianna understood that Me Law wouldn’t let her escape without consequences Seeing Aidyn
appmach, she remained composed, not showing much reaction
On the other hand, as Eleanor and Elbert arrived, Gianna felt a sense of relief. As long as Eleanor was
safe, she was willing to face any punishment.
Aidyn politely “escorted” Gianna onto the waiting helicopter. Once the door closed, Gianna couldn’t
help but inquire, “Where is Evan?”
Aidyn looked at Gianna and gave a cold smile. “Ms Penrod, kidnappers usually don’t keep all the
hostages in one place”
Heaning these words, Gianna sighed. She was once a kidnapper, now she was the hostage.
After dealing with Gianna, Bernard was about to board the helicopter with Eleanor when a lazy voice
sounded from behind.
“Hey, I saved your wife and you’re just gonna walk away? Not even a thank you? That’s pretty rude,
what do you think?”
Bernard turned around, his icy gaze darkening when he saw the man leaning against a wall, smoking a
cigarette
“Elbert”
Elbert lifted his chin slightly, his lips curling into a smirk, “Oh, you remember me How sweet”
Bernard gripped Eleanor’s hand tighter. “Eleanor, he’s the one who saved you?”
Eleanor nodded. “Yes, he saved me What’s the matter?”
Bernard opened his mouth to say something but in the end, he just shook his head

He looked away from Eleanor towards Elbert, “lowe you one”
Elbert removed the cigarette from his mouth, crushed it under his heel, and gave Bernard a wicked
grin.
Silently, he gave Eleanor a scornful look before turning to leave Observing Elbert’s retreating form,
Eleanor couldn’t help but express her gratitude, saying, “Thank you for your help today
Elbert didn’t bother to look back, merely waving his hand dismissively, indicating that he didn’t require
her thanks
Witnessing Eleanors interaction with Elbert, Bernard’s demeanor softened, his eyelashes trembling
slightly. “Eleanor, he is the heir to the Pine family business. It’s best if you avoid him in the future. As for
his assistance I will find a way to repay him”
Eleanor looked up at Bernard her brow furrowed in confusion. “Why?”
Bernard appeared lost in unpleasant memones, his gaze turning cold “The Laurence family and the
Pine family have a deep–seated feud.”
This conflict went beyond mere business competition. It was a full fledged war The Laurence family and
the Pine family were bitter enemies
