From His Wife to His Uncle's Wife novel Chapter 320

Eleanor pressed her face into the blankets, wishing she could just disappear. Was it possible for someone to die of embarrassment this many times in one lifetime?

Her phone buzzed. It was the group chat lighting up.

Frog Fun! Did you hear? Mrs. Clarkson is here! She’s actually in his presidential suite right now!

No way. Are you sure? Mr. Clarkson came with us on the bus. Who’s Mrs. Clarkson, then?

Maybe she came later. That explains why Mr. Clarkson suddenly decided to join our team-building trip. Guess he wanted a little getaway with his wife.

Wait a second, everyone. What if… what if the boss’s wife is actually one of us? In our department?

The group chat went dead silent for five whole minutes.

Eleanor’s heart was pounding so hard it felt like it might jump out of her chest. She quietly typed back.

No way…

Thank goodness, nobody took it any further.

It can’t be. I just thought about everyone in our department. The only one who even looks the part is Eleanor, but she’s already married. Relax, everyone. No undercover boss’s wife here!

Eleanor’s lips twitched in silent frustration.

About half an hour later, Max finally finished his meeting.

Eleanor glared at him, clearly annoyed. “Why didn’t you tell me you had a meeting?”

Max looked hurt. “You didn’t ask. And I didn’t get a chance to say anything.”

“Fine, fine. Don’t be mad, babe. It’s my fault. Next time, I’ll skip the meeting if we’re together.”

For some reason, his words made Eleanor feel like she was some wicked temptress, leading the king astray.

She cleared her throat, trying to sound serious. “Max, I’m here to work. Don’t come pestering me tonight.”

She pointed to her neck. “And look at what you did. I don’t think even concealer can cover these up.”

Max grinned, silently proud. He wanted her to wear his marks.

“Sorry, I lost control last night. It won’t happen again.”
