No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 755

“She also suggested we get a rabbit or a hamster,” Xavier said, his eyes softening at the mention of his niece.

Maybe it was because they both had kids around the same age—sometimes, their concerns seemed to mirror each other.

“If you want something quiet, I think a cat is a good choice,” Eleanor offered. She’d always wanted one herself, but now that Princess was at home, she barely had time for another pet, so she’d put the idea aside.

“Alright, I’ll take her to pick out a kitten one of these days, let her learn how to take care of a pet herself,” Xavier nodded.

Just then, Ellington knocked and stepped into the room.

“Ms. Sutton, the folks from Goodwin & Co. have arrived. They need you to check over the agenda.”

Eleanor frowned slightly. Was Ian really here this early?

“Mr. Goodwin is in Suite One,” Ellington added.

“I’ll head over now.” Eleanor grabbed her bag and rose from her seat.

When she reached Suite One, the door was open and voices drifted out. Eleanor stepped inside. Ian was standing at the table, leaning over some documents. His gold-rimmed glasses had slipped down his nose, and he pushed them up with a practiced, elegant motion.

The foundation manager was beside him, giving a progress report.

“Ms. Sutton has arrived,” Gavin announced promptly.

Ian looked up, his gaze sharpening behind the glasses as he saw Eleanor. Today, his hair was slicked back, giving him an even more commanding presence.

He took off his glasses and carefully folded them, slipping them into his breast pocket. Clearly, they were just for show—he wasn’t actually nearsighted.

Gavin couldn’t help being surprised. Mr. Goodwin’s eyesight was legendary, sharp as a hawk’s, yet today he’d shown up in glasses. Still, they did give him a certain distinguished charm.

“Dr. Sutton.” Ian’s voice was low and smooth. “Perfect timing.”

She didn’t mind the formal address in public.

“This is the latest schedule—let me know if you see any issues.” Ian handed her a printout.
