A Second Chance at Forever ( Eleanor Shultz )
A Second Chance at Forever Chapter 1360

Chapter 1360

Katharine finally passed out from the extreme pain, Eleanor immediately called for a doctor to rush in for emergency aid.

After a whirlwind of medical intervention, York concluded that Katharine was hopelessly insane and planned to send her to a mental institution.

Robin was dead against it, engaging in a heated argument with York. It all ended when Katharine, on the brink of despair, cried out, “Dad, you’ve already killed my child. Do you want to kill me too?”

York protested, claiming he was just afraid that if she carried on like this, he’d be driven mad himself. He implored Katharine to show him some

mercy.

Katharine agreed, promising not to cause any more trouble so he wouldn’t be ridiculed.

Stung by her words, an infuriated York stormed off with stern face.

After he left, Katharine raised her tear-streaked eyes to the worn-out Robin, “Bro, there’s a church in Clearwater I always wanted to visit with Caleb but never got the chance. Can I go there?”

Caleb had once told her to pray before the God for a year. If she hadn’t forgotten him by then, he would return in a different form. She had a promise to keep.

Robin stared into Katharine’s eyes, brimming with despair, for a solid five minutes before finally deciding, “I’ll go with you.”

Katharine tried to refuse, but Robin insisted: “Katharine, no one is more important than you.”

Unable to hold back her tears, Katharine asked, “Bro, do you blame me?”

Robin shook his head and gently cleaned her tears. “You’ve lost the two people you love most. I can’t let you lose me too.”

Loss wasn’t just about death. Indifference and abandonment were a type of loss too. Just like York, her own father, had been the first to give up on her.

Katharine got up from the hospital bed, flung herself into Robin’s arms, and wept her heart out like a little girl seeking her big brother’s protection.

Robin raised his hand and patted Katharine’s hair, but his gaze was on Eleanor, who was standing off to the side, silently weeping along.

He knew that he had to say goodbye to the girl he love for a while.

After he had reassured Katharine and lulled her to sleep, he left the hospital room with Eleanor.

Eleanor asked him, “Can you take care of Katharine on your own?”

Robin looked at her seriously. “Then come with us.”

Without thinking, Eleanor touched her stomach. “When are you planning to leave?”

Her gesture said it all, and Robin stopped testing her. “When she’s more stable, and when my wounds have healed a little.”

Eleanor nodded and, feeling a little embarrassed, said, “I’ll see you off when you leave…”

Robin shook his head. “No need.”

Eleanor didn’t understand why he was rejecting her offer. “As friends and comrades, it’s the right thing to do.”

Robin gave her a cryptic look. “I’m not leaving for good. There’s no need for any farewell.”

After he said this, he added, “I’ll be back to give you a gift when your baby is born.”

Eleanor retorted, “You don’t even know my due date.”

Robin replied, “I have your OB-GYN’s number.”

Eleanor was taken aback.

Realizing his slip-up, Robin quickly covered, “The doctor gave me the number when I was there to protect your baby.”

Eleanor was still puzzled. “Why do you care when my baby is due?”

Robin was getting impatient. “Ever since I found out you were pregnant, you’ve become so motherly. It’s annoying.”

With those words, he turned around and walked back into the hospital room.

Once out of Eleanor’s sight, Robin’s face inexplicably turned red.

Katharine stayed in the hospital for a while. During this time, her emotions stabilized, and she stopped crying day and night.

With Eleanor’s company and comfort, Katharine was able to endure and was soon discharged from the hospital.

Without wasting a day, Robin took Katharine straight to Clearwater.

That day, both Hailey and Eleanor went to the airport to see them off. Before parting, Katharine turned around and hugged Eleanor, “Eleanor, thank you for your kindness and understanding. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have survived till the day Caleb messaged me.”

Eleanor gently patted her back. “Katharine, you need to be strong and live on. Only by living can you fulfill Caleb’s expectations for you, and only by living can you keep his memory alive.”

Katharine agreed, saying she would remember Caleb for the rest of her life, just like Eleanor would always remember Bernard. They would remember

them forever, even though their paths in life were different.

After letting go of Eleanor and waving goodbye, Katharine walked into the airport with her assistant. Before leaving, Robin took out his phone and waved it in front of Eleanor, “I’ll continue investigating the Area Opaca. If I get any news, I’ll call you. Make sure you pick up.”

“Okay.”

Looking at Eleanor’s face, Robin felt a wave of reluctance. He moved forward and embraced her.

“Eleanor, take care of yourself while I’m gone.”

Not far away, Cedric, leaning against a car, frowned at the sight. Luckily, Robin’s hug was just a farewell gesture. Nothing more. Otherwise, Cedric would have raced over to pull them apart.

After releasing Eleanor, Robin walked into the airport, looking back every few steps.

Once he was out of sight, Eleanor’s eyes welled up with tears, but she quickly cleaned them. She had to be strong, for her unborn child, for herself, and for the ones who were leaving.
