Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back!

Chapter 273
After they left, Hans quickly printed out the purchase agreement, along with the power of attorney Curtis had already signed, and handed them both to Leanne.
"This contract was personally drafted by Mr. Richardson himself. If you're not feeling sure about it, you might want to have a lawyer take a look."
Leanne first checked the signature at the end of the power of attorney. After reading it, she realized she was still haunted by Curtis' stubbornness.
Hans stood by, noticing her hesitation to sign. After a moment, he softly said, "Mrs. Richardson, if there's anything you're unsure about, I'd be happy to clarify." "No questions," Leanne declared, signing her name with a flourish.
After signing the contract, she left the real estate office and headed home.
Breaking away from the Richardson family and that marriage, she and Curtis were essentially two lines that would never meet.
Now, their already minimal contact had been severed even further.
In the evening, she invited Joy and Selina over for dinner, donning an apron to cook in the
kitchen.
Joy, coming straight from work, stopped to pick up groceries, holding up a bunch of scallions and asking, "Are these scallions so pale because they're malnourished?"
After washing her hands, Joy saw the phone screen light up, and her curiosity piqued
She grabbed Leanne's phone, tapping the screen, counting, "One, two, three, four, fiv seven, eight, nine..."
She rushed over, grabbed Leanne by the shoulders and blurted out, "Take me in! I'm a to quit my job, I swear!"
"What?" Selina, not wanting to be left out, joined in the shaking, "Adopt me too! I'm cuttin ties with my dad right now!"
Leanne, dizzy from the shaking, asked, "What's going on?"
Joy showed her the screen.
Leanne glanced at it, "Oh."
It was the notification for the house sale proceeds hitting her account through Vector Vista Bank. Curtis must have given a heads-up, hence the swift transaction.
Aside from the divorce papers, Curtis generally handled things efficiently and was quite generous towards her.

Exiting the real estate office, Leanne hadn't felt as relieved as she'd expected. But now, perhaps lightened by their antics, she felt a bit more buoyant.
"How about I take you guys out this weekend?
"Remember our deal?" Joy said, nearly in tears, as the dream of sudden wealth was something she could hardly imagine for herself but was happening to her best friend.
Leanne genuinely forgot, "What deal?"
Joy exclaimed, "When you strike it rich, you'd get me ten male models!"
Leanne chuckled, "...Deal."
