Crises in Love novel Chapter 565

Just two minutes after hanging up the phone, she sent me a location.

Conveniently, it was close by.

I mentioned to Ronan, "Irving invited me out for dinner tonight."

Ronan nodded, "Looks like he's trying to pry your bottom line. You might want to do some digging."

I immediately grilled Ronan with a few key questions to prevent any slip-ups.

After thinking it over, Ronan shared a number with me, and I couldn't hide my surprise. "That high?"

"Don't you want to make a killing on this house?" he said, his gaze loaded with meaning.

I was elated. "Absolutely! I'll fleece him, no mercy."

We shared a knowing smile, and inwardly I chuckled. This was going to be a wicked game.

Before I left, I asked Catherine to stay back to chat more in the evening. Then, I went out with Hannah, making sure to bring a gift the first time I stepped into Irving’s home.

Timing it perfectly, I headed straight for Irving's place.

Approaching the gated community of the Bradlee family, I could see a figure from afar.

Hannah saw it too and said with a bit of shock, "He came out quick."

I just raised an eyebrow and smirked.

Hannah looked at me, puzzled, "Allie, don't tell me you knew he'd come out?"

I casually replied, "I didn't pass along his number to Dalton, so of course he had to step out. I wanted him to cool his heels for a couple of days, just to sell the house peacefully. How can he feel the world's warmth and woes from inside? He needs to taste this flavor. I've said it before, I want him to be miserable. I can't go back on my word now, can I?"

Hannah looked at me with admiration, "No wonder he came out so fast."

"It's easy to get him back in jail, but that would be letting him off too light."
