Chapter 126
“Can we not tell him?”
“Sure.”
After Liana nodded, she proposed a condition: “But you have to let me know what your relationship with
him is”
It was the first time she had seen Bernard so concerned about a woman, which made her a bit curious.
Eleanor replied lightly, “I used to be a substitute of the woman he truly loves, now we…. have nothing
to do with each other”
Liana smirked, “You’re talking about Sophie, right?”
Eleanor nodded, and Liana’s smile deepened
She didn’t say much more and instructed Eleanor to rest well before leaving the room.
After Liana left, Eleanor couldn’t take it anymore, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

next to her.
Wearing a black turtleneck sweater, the sunlight shining on his skin.
He emitted an elegant and noble aura that made people dare not defile or approach him easily.
With his long slender fingers holding some paperwork, he was lowering his long lashes, flipping
through the pages.
His expression did not change as he looked at the report, presumably Liana had made a fake one for
him.
Liana kept her promise, she not only hid it from him, but also made a fake report for her without her
worrying about it
But hadn’t Bernard left already? Why was he still watching over her bedside?
Eleanor tried to sit up with her body propped up but bumped into the wound on her back, and the
intense pain suddenly came.
“Don’t move recklessly!”
Seeing her wake up and moving about, Bernard’s expression tightened as he reached out to steady
her shoulders, helping her turn to her side.
With his help, Eleanor slowly turned on her side, this position avoiding touching the wound on her back.
She just felt very thirsty and wanted to drink water…
She looked at Bernard, seeing his cold expression, and didn’t dare speak.
She reached out to grab the water cup beside the bed, only to find that her hand had been cleaned of
blood, and she had even been changed into a hospital gown.
“What do you need?”
Before she could think about who had helped her wash her hands and change her clothes, Bernard’s
cold but gentle voice came from above.
“Water…”

Bernard picked up the cup and supported her upper body with an arm around her waist, feeding her
water himself.
Eleanor stared at him, seemingly trying to discern some emotion from his face.
But he showed no expression, still as cold and distant as ever, his gaze just a little gentler than before.
Seeing her finish drinking water bit by bit, Bernard slowly let her down, his movements so gentle that
Eleanor doubted the man before her was the Bernard Laurence she knew.
“You…” She wanted to ask him what was going on.
Bernard stared at her face and said earnestly, I’ve already sent people to find a matching heart for you.
I’ll do everything I can to make sure you recover
His words were like a warm current slowly flowing into Eleanor’s heart, giving her a glimmer of hope.
If it wasn’t for the fact that she was already in the late stage of heart failure, she might have laughed
happily and sweetly replied, “Okay, I’ll wait for you”
She couldn’t make a promise to him, so she could only tactfully respond, “I’ve waited for a suitable
heart for many years, but I have yet to find one. So you don’t have to get your hopes up. I can still
survive taking medicine…”
