No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 402

Eleanor’s breath caught. “I should be the one apologizing.”

“No, it’s my fault.” Mansfield Ellington was certain she had nothing to apologize for.

“Mr. Ellington—”

“Please, just call me Mansfield.” He gently corrected her.

He’d told her before to use his first name, but she must have been too busy to remember.

Eleanor pressed her lips together, her gaze meeting his.

Just then, the car door slammed shut with a thunderous bang.

Mansfield glanced toward the man getting out, his brows drawing together. He leaned in and asked Eleanor quietly, “Do you want me to leave?”

She looked at Ian, her expression turning icy. “No need. He and I are strangers now.”

Ian was as impeccably dressed as ever, his sharp features set in a cold, distant expression. His eyes lingered on Mansfield for a beat before turning to Eleanor. “Where’s Evelyn?”

“She’s with a friend of mine,” Eleanor replied, barely glancing his way.

“Mr. Goodwin.” Mansfield greeted him politely.

Ian gave a curt nod, then looked back at Eleanor. “I want to see her today.”

“Then come by later,” Eleanor said, lifting her chin. “I need to set up a regular schedule for your visits, anyway.”

Ian’s eyes narrowed. “Is that really necessary?”

“It’s absolutely necessary,” Eleanor replied, her voice firm and unwavering.
