No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1157

Their work had moved to data consolidation, which wasn't the most critical phase.

Although his mentor checked in daily, anxious and concerned, research wasn't a one-day affair. They had to be prepared for the long haul.

Eleanor grabbed her bag and coat and practically ran from the lab. She got into her car and sped toward home, with two black SUVs immediately following behind her.

Eleanor knew Princess was a bit timid and often got scared by larger dogs, but she also knew Princess was familiar with the neighborhood and wouldn't get lost easily.

That is, unless something else had happened—an accident, or worse, someone with ill intentions had found and taken her.

Eleanor didn't dare to think about it further. The first step was to get home and start searching.

As Eleanor drove up to the entrance of her residential complex, she saw Joslyn anxiously scanning the roadside from a distance. The moment Joslyn spotted her car, she ran over, her eyes filled with worry. "Ma'am, I still can't find her. I've looked everywhere nearby—"

"Don't worry, we'll find her," Eleanor reassured her. Her gaze drifted to the two black SUVs that had followed her, a security detail arranged by Ian and Mansfield Ellington. Usually, they stayed hidden, but now they were parked a short distance away.

Eleanor immediately walked over to them. Right now, more people meant more hope.

As she approached, the bodyguards from both vehicles got out. They were all tall and imposing. By now, the two teams had developed a working understanding. They had one shared order: to protect Eleanor's safety at all costs.

Eleanor addressed the stern-looking men. "Hello. Could I ask you for a favor?"

Both groups responded in unison, "Please, Miss Sutton, go ahead."

"My dog ran off somewhere around here. I was hoping you could help me look for her," Eleanor said, taking out her phone to show them a picture of Princess.

"If you could send us the photo, Miss Sutton, we'll start searching right away."
