Eleanor headed for the elevator first. Ian wrapped the towel around his waist and followed her.
When the elevator doors closed, the mirrored walls reflected the man's physique, clad only in the towel.
It wasn't as if they were teenagers. After six years of marriage, it wasn't as if she hadn't seen it all before.
Still, she lowered her gaze, instinctively looking away.
Ian watched her reaction in the reflection. He saw that although her eyes were downcast, from his angle, he could see her earlobes flush a faint red.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Eleanor asked, "Which room is Evelyn in?"
Ian gave her the room number, and Eleanor walked quickly in that direction.
Twenty minutes later, Eleanor and Serena were with Evelyn in the restaurant. The little girl was hungry.
Just as they finished ordering, Ian arrived. He had changed into a set of casual clothes, which gave him a softer, more gentle air. Serena was sitting next to Evelyn, so he naturally pulled out the chair beside Eleanor and sat down.
"Ian, are you two going to look at houses tomorrow?" Serena asked.
"Yes."
"Mom's idea is that you should look for two places, since we're planning to move over, too. It'll be easier to help with Evelyn," Serena said.
Ian nodded. "I know."
Eleanor blinked and looked at Ian. "Does your grandmother approve? After all, she really likes the house you're living in now."
"Grandma is all for it. She said you'll be busy with work in the future, and if we live closer, it'll be more convenient for us to help with Evelyn," Serena said with a smile.
Eleanor didn't know what to say, but she felt a wave of gratitude. While her upcoming research wasn't on a tight deadline, there would be times when things got busy, and she would definitely need a helping hand.
