Chapter 128
Not only did he bring her home, but he also had Liana move the hospital equipment into the villa.
Eleanor felt a bit awkward as she watched Liana applying medicine and administering IV fluids to her.
Liana, however, smiled meaningfully.
“Ms. Shultz is really lucky”
What Liana was hinting at was Bernard’s special care for her.
But this special care didn’t mean she was lucky.
He brought her home and had Liana take care of her alone, probably because of guilt.
If it wasn’t for him choking her and nearly suffocating her, he wouldn’t have cared about her so much.
Plus, he was about to get engaged to Sophie. There was no way he would give her special treatment at
this time.
The moment Eleanor thought about the engagement, she snapped out of the tenderness Bernard had
shown her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe remembered how angry Sophie looked when she saw Bernard carrying her to the car.
They were about to get engaged, yet her fiancé was with another woman. If she were Sophie, she
would probably be even angrier.
Thinking of this, Eleanor looked up and asked Liana, “How long will it take me to recover?”
She was now disabled, and once she could move, she had to leave as soon as possible. She couldn’t
get involved with a man who already had a fiancée.
Liana had just finished changing her IV bag when she saw the worried look on Eleanor’s face. She was
confused.
In Liana’s view, anyone who was liked by Mr. Laurence should want to stay here, so why did she want
to leave?
“Your condition is quite serious, and recovery is difficult, but I’ve used some powerful medications on
you. In a few days, you’ll be able to move.”
Eleanor sighed in relief at Liana’s words. When she was able to move, she would discuss leaving with
Bernard.
After securing the IV tube for her, Liana turned and left the room.
Bernard was currently sitting on the couch outside, dealing with company affairs. Several phones and
computers were running meetings.
Though he was extremely busy, he insisted on staying home, which was obviously because of the
patient in the room.
Liana thought this beauty was essential to him.
After Bernard finished all the video conferences, Liana approached him.
“Mr. Laurence, Ms. Shultz will need a few more days to recover. I’ll come to give her IV fluids on time
during these days.”
Without looking at her, Bernard nodded lightly, his expression showing fatigue.
He thought Liana would leave after her report, but she still stood there, seemingly having something
else to say.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe frowned slightly and whispered, “Is there anything else?”
Liana hesitated for a few seconds before finally asking the question on her mind, “Do you really care
about Ms. Shultz?”
Liana felt that if Mr. Laurence genuinely cared, it seemed somewhat unfair to him for her to help
Eleanor hide her condition.
At her words, Bernard raised his cold eyes and looked at Liana coldly.
“What do you think?”
His counter–question indeed left Liana uncertain about how to answer.
She and Aidyn were cousins, and she had known Bernard since childhood.
Although she hadn’t been working by Bernard’s side for a long time like her cousin, she still knew his
character to some extent.
However, this understanding was limited to his cold nature, and she knew nothing about other aspects,
It could be said that even the members of the Laurence family didn’t know his preferences. They could
only guess by observing.
What Liana guessed from observation was that Ms. Shultz could affect Mr. Laurence’s mood.
But when he asked her coldly like this, Liana became a little unsure.
