No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 884

Ian stared at the message for a few seconds, a slight frown creasing his brow, before typing a single word in reply: "Okay."

He put his phone away, his gaze softening as it fell on his daughter's carefree smile. He couldn't help but smile back, reaching out to ruffle her hair. "After this, Daddy will take you to the mall to buy some school supplies."

"Okay!" Evelyn nodded happily.

"Evelyn, Mommy has work this afternoon. Why don't you go with Daddy?" Eleanor suggested.

"Okay, Mommy," Evelyn agreed.

After paying the bill, Ian said to Eleanor, "I'll drop you off at home first."

"There's no need. I'll get a taxi," she replied flatly.

"I'm taking Evelyn to the mall near your place. It's on the way," Ian insisted.

"Mommy, just let Daddy drive you! I want to ride in the car with you," Evelyn said, tugging on Eleanor's arm.

Eleanor's resolve softened. "Alright, fine."

In the car, Ian chatted with his daughter about school. When she grew quiet, content to play with her new toys, he glanced at Eleanor in the rearview mirror. "Xavier has run into some trouble abroad," he mentioned, his tone casual.

Eleanor, who had been gazing out the window, was pulled back to the present. She met his eyes in the mirror, her expression questioning.
