No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1186

Joslyn remembered how Eleanor often had clogged milk ducts back then. Evelyn was too small to draw the milk out properly, which made her wail in frustration, and she refused to take a bottle.

So, on many occasions, her husband would go into the room first. By the time Joslyn brought Evelyn in, Eleanor's face would be beet red. As an experienced woman, Joslyn knew better than to make a fuss.

Living under the same roof, such scenes were not uncommon. In the middle of the night, she would sometimes hear Ian carrying Eleanor from the master bedroom to the guest room. She knew to give the young couple their privacy and never disturb them.

Thinking back on their first four years of marriage, Joslyn could still feel the warmth and happiness that filled the house. After the baby was asleep, Eleanor loved to rest her head on Mr. Goodwin's shoulder and read, while he would wrap one arm around her and continue working with the other. Once Eleanor fell asleep, he would carry her back to their bedroom.

Back then, the villa, the garden, the dining room, the living room—everywhere you looked, you could see the loving family of three.

Eleanor was so doted on by Ian that she was like a child, innocent of the world's troubles, with a perpetual light of happiness in her eyes.

But when did it all change?

It was in their fourth year of marriage.

She remembered being at the airport once with Gavin to pick up Evelyn, who was returning from a trip. She saw a glamorous, flamboyant woman standing next to Mr. Goodwin, looking at him with adoration.

On the way back, Ian specifically told her not to mention it to his wife. From that day on, Joslyn was on edge.

Even though she kept her mouth shut, Eleanor eventually sensed something was wrong. Joslyn saw Eleanor crying alone late at night, and she watched as the warmth in their home slowly faded.

Before, even when Mr. Goodwin was away on business for as long as six months, his wife never doubted his fidelity. But after that, she knew he had a mistress abroad.
