Eleanor was indeed struggling a bit. Asn leaned over to take their daughter, Eleanor''s faint, pleasant scent wafted toward him. He looked up at her, and as she sensed his gaze, her own eyes met his deep ones.


    She let go and took a step back. Holding their daughter,n''s lips curved into a faint smile before he turned and walked ahead.


    Eleanor followed him inside. After she opened the door for him,n changed his shoes and carried Evelyn straight upstairs.


    One held their daughter while the other took off her shoes and tucked her into bed. The scene felt like a return to the past; when it came to their daughter, the two of them moved with perfect, unspoken coordination.


    After Evelyn was asleep, Eleanor went downstairs first. Joslyn had prepared tea and offered it ton as he came down. "Mr. Goodwin, please have some tea before you go."


    Eleanor had already reviewed it and found it to be very stable. She nodded. "Is there a problem?"


    "I have some new ns and wanted to get your opinion,"n said, sitting down on the sofa and picking up the cup of tea Joslyn had poured.


    Joslyn had already discreetly left the living room.


    The spacious room was quiet, filled only with the gentle aroma of tea, yet the atmosphere felt subtly charged.


    "Alright, let''s hear it," Eleanor said, taking a sip from her own cup.


    His business acumen had always been sharp and precise. Eleanor had to admit that his ns and proposals were unique, demonstrating clear foresight and absolute control.


    After listening, Eleanor nodded. "I''ll have the Ellington Group implement your new proposal and begin the basic nning for the transition."


    Eleanor noticed his teacup was empty, but the pot was as well. "Would you like more?" she asked.


    The implication was clear: wasn''t it time for him to leave?


    "I still have experiment data to review in my study," Eleanor stated inly.


    Eleanor nodded and saw him to the door. As soon as he left, Joslyn came to clear the tea set.


    Eleanor went upstairs to work.

    Eleanor was a little speechless.


    Did he have this much free time?


    Byron came over to greet her. "Eleanor, you''re here."


    He then introduced the other executives in the room. One young engineer grew excited upon seeing her. "Dr. Sutton, I''m extremely interested in your theory on Al nanobots."


    "Thank you," Eleanor replied with a polite smile and nod.


    "Dr. Sutton, please have a seat,"n said, his tone carrying a professional calm.
