No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1172

"Dr. Sutton, good morning," a female assistant greeted her.

Eleanor snapped back to reality and offered a polite smile. She walked slowly toward the laboratory building, pushing aside the fragmented memories she had deliberately buried, and shifted into work mode.

That morning, Eleanor had a meeting with Ryan to discuss preparations for the new round of experiments. To speed things up, their research had taken a much bolder step forward.

In the cafeteria at noon, just as Eleanor and Ryan sat down, Joel approached with his tray. "Dr. Lyman, could I have a word with Dr. Sutton alone?"

Ryan graciously stood up and moved his tray to another table. Eleanor looked at Joel in surprise. "Joel, is something important?"

After sitting down, Joel looked at her with a profound gaze. "Ellie, I've suddenly realized I did something wrong, and I feel quite guilty about it."

Eleanor was slightly taken aback. "Joel, what are you talking about?"

Joel sighed. "Do you remember how we got in touch? I was the one who reached out to you. That period when we first started talking, I felt so happy and gratified."

Eleanor blinked, recalling the night she had connected with Joel. He had sent an email first, and since she happened to be online, she replied immediately. After that, they had their first phone call.
