After a pause, Eleanor said, "John, you're a married man. If your wife learns of our affair and the child, it's bound to cause a ruckus. Why not let Brian continue under the belief that he's the father?"

John narrowed his eyes, mulling over her proposal.

Eleanor pressed on, “After I marry Brian, I'll ensure you ascend to the rank of a top international director. Our son will be the next heir to the Hughes family. Isn't this tantamount to us controlling Hughes Group in the future?"

John's eyes sparked to life at her proposition

He grasped Eleanor's hand, caressing it gently.
