Chapter 1264
Cedric frowned as he quickly followed Bernard into the study. Once they were seated across from the
desk, Bernard opened a drawer, took out two envelopes, and handed them to him respectively.
“If I don’t come back in a month, give this letter to Eleanor.”
The envelope was pink, inside was a letter he wrote himself. Cedric didn’t know what it said, he just
took the envelope and looked at Bernard with a puzzled expression.
“Dude, where the hell are you going?
Bernard held the other white envelope tightly, seemingly hesitant about something, he didn’t answer
immediately. Just as Cedric was about to ask again, Bernard suddenly handed him the envelope.
“If I don’t come back in three months, give this letter to Garett Falsey.”
Cedric knew about Garett and Eleanor’s relationship, but he didn’t understand why Bernard mentioned
Garett and left him a letter. He could only guess that it was Bernard’s last words!

Bernard didn’t tell him anything, leaving him completely in the dark. How could Cedric calm down?
Bernard glanced at the anxious Cedric and showed displeasure.
“With your temper, how can you manage the Laurence Group?”
“I don’t care if I can manage the company or not, all I know is if you don’t tell me what is happening, I
won’t be your messenger!”
Cedric finished speaking, threw the envelopes away, crossed his arms, and turned his head.
He was already married and had a child, but his childishness hadn’t disappeared. Bernard sighed
helplessly, “Sometimes, I really envy you!
He grew up in a big family and developed a carefree personality. He could always lose his temper,
didn’t need to be mature and calm, didn’t need to weigh pros and
cons…
But him, Bernard, couldn’t be like Cedric. He had to be mature and calm, had to weigh the pros and
cons before doing anything, or he would fail miserably.
For the first time, Cedric felt the helplessness in Bernard’s voice. He slowly turned his head and looked
at him. In his memory, Bernard was strong and unbeatable… But this time, Cedric saw that Bernard’s
strength was just a facade. He forced himself to grow into a sturdy tree.
Maybe, in Bernard’s heart, he didn’t want to bear so much responsibility, but he had to, because the
whole Laurence family relied on him….
“Bro…”
Cedric called him in a heartbroken voice. The man across from him had already put away his low spirits
and returned to his usual indifferent look.
“Now, what I’m going to tell you, you can’t let a word out…”
Eleanor had no idea what the two brothers were discussing in the study. All she could see was Cedric
staggering out, his eyes lost, as if deeply shocked but without any solution. He could only lean against
the wall helplessly and step by step leave the Fiord Roundabout.

Watching Cedric’s swaying figure, Eleanor’s heart unconsciously tightened again. She wanted to go to
the study to find Bernard and ask where he was going. But just as she was about to reach the study
door, she stopped.
If Bernard didn’t want to tell her, she shouldn’t force him. She had always been a good and obedient
child, so she decided to be good and obedient again. After all, he had promised her that he would be
back in a month.
Not knowing when Bernard would leave, Eleanor turned and went to the kitchen. She cooked a few
dishes and made soup herself. When she finished all this and came back, she saw a black car parked
at the door.
Evan Penrod in a black suit and Gianna Penrod in a red dress came down from the back seat of the
car.
Seeing the siblings, Eleanor immediately understood, they were here to pick up Bernard. The soup pot
in her hand suddenly became heavy.
