A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 10

Once she’d gotten everything ready, Josef sent his assistant Wyatt to pick her up.

Eleanor grabbed her bag and got into a Maybach.

She thought Wyatt would take her straight to Josef’s house, but to her surprise, he took her to a mall.

Several stylists and makeup artists surrounded her, putting her long wavy hair into an updo and applying a delicate makeup look.

She tried on a very expensive evening gown that seemed tailor–made for her, looking perfect without any flaws.

A diamond necklace worth tens of millions added to her elegance.

Looking at her gorgeous reflection in the mirror, she felt unfamiliar, like she was Sophie, not herself.

If Bernard saw her like this, he might think she was deliberately imitating Sophie.

She laughed mockingly, a bitter smile on her lips.

After the makeover, Wyatt quickly took her to the Midnight Bar.
