No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1466

Sunlight streamed through the half-drawn curtains, casting a patch of light on the floor.

Ian sat on the other sofa, leaning back. The screen of the tablet in his hands flickered with the movements of the global stock market, the red and green lines of the chart reflecting faintly in his deep eyes.

His long, slender fingers occasionally swiped across the screen, making a few analyses and notes.

After just a few moments, his attention drifted to the woman sleeping nearby.

Eleanor hadn't gotten nearly enough sleep the night before, and with her monthly cycle approaching, a heavy exhaustion had settled deep in her bones, making her more prone to slipping into a deep sleep. At that moment, she was sleeping soundly and peacefully.

Her long lashes rested quietly on her eyelids, her usual coolness and defenses gone, making her look exceptionally soft and serene.

Ian's gaze deepened.

He forced his eyes back to the iPad screen. A moment later, Eleanor shifted in her sleep, turning from her back onto her side. A stray strand of hair fell across her forehead, stubbornly resting near the corner of her eye.

Ian's gaze immediately shot over, lingering for a few seconds before he finally set down his tablet and got up.

His fingertips instinctively moved to brush the strand of hair away. However, they first made contact with her delicate skin. The warm touch made him swallow hard.

The sound was distinct in the quiet lounge.

Just then, Eleanor's brows furrowed slightly. Ian's movement froze, his suspended fingers curling reflexively. Only when her brow smoothed out again did he, with restraint, brush the strand of hair away and tuck it behind her ear.

He couldn't help himself; his thumb traced the delicate shell of her ear, the heat of his skin contrasting with her cool, soft temple.

His fingertip traced the elegant curve of her ear down to the lobe. Finally, his fingers longingly caressed her delicate cheek. The heat from his touch seemed to make Eleanor stir.
