No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 881

Eleanor smiled faintly. "Right. I'm currently studying some related cases."

Simone's gaze grew probing, sensing there was more to Eleanor's question than simple curiosity. "Why do you ask? Does someone you know have a blood disorder?"

"Just curious," Eleanor replied with a calm smile, not wanting to burden Simone with her worries. She changed the subject to Simone's diet, and they chatted until four-thirty, when Eleanor finally took her leave.

After Eleanor left, Simone picked up her laptop. She searched for domestic case studies but found nothing matching the rare blood disorder Eleanor had mentioned, only common ones. With time on her hands, she began organizing some cases and logged into the hospital's internal system to look up leukemia-related files. When she searched for Marilyn's case, a list of other hospital records popped up.

As Simone scrolled through the names, one suddenly caught her eye: *Sara Whitmore*.

Finding a subject with Marilyn's rare type of leukemia was incredibly difficult, which was why Ian had insisted she be treated as a crucial case study—an attempt to preemptively eliminate the threat hanging over Eleanor and his daughter.

Everything finally clicked for Simone. Ian's tough exterior was just a cover for a deeper loyalty she hadn't seen before.
