Eleanor had actually looked into the properties around the school over the past two days. She had to admit he was right. The houses in that school district, especially the villas and high-end apartments with good security and a nice environment, were indeed in high demand. It was difficult for a typical agent to get access to the best listings.
Moreover, the prices were often inflated. If he had connections, things would be much simpler and smoother.
This time, Eleanor wanted to buy a villa, preferably one with a large garden where her daughter and Princess could play.
"Okay," Eleanor nodded. "Then please help me look for a villa."
Ian smiled. "Of course. I'll have someone start looking at properties right away. We'll aim to move in before September first."
The food arrived, and Ian pushed her favorite dishes closer to her. He shifted the conversation to Meridian Dynamics' new research project, wanting to hear her more in-depth opinions while also sharing his vision for the company's future.
As Eleanor listened, she began to relax. She also brought up the preparations for her daughter starting school, like hiring a tutor, since Evelyn's spoken French wasn't yet fluent.
"I'm thinking of getting her a horse. We could go riding at the stables on weekends," Ian said in a low voice.
At the mention of horseback riding, Eleanor’s hand tightened around her fork. An image involuntarily flashed in her mind: a photo taken four years ago of him and Vanessa Shannon with their daughter at a stable.
The sting and bitterness she had felt back then still left a bad taste in her mouth, even after all this time.
"Didn't you already buy Evelyn a horse at the stables?" Eleanor looked up at him.
Ian was slightly taken aback. "Not yet."
"I remember four years ago, when I was hospitalized with the virus, you and Vanessa took Evelyn riding," Eleanor asked directly.
Ian immediately understood. "Did Vanessa send you a picture?"
Eleanor looked away and admitted, "No. I had someone following you who secretly took the photos."
