Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 418

Curtis casually reached out his right hand, playfully tugging at her earlobe as he spoke into the phone, “For your daughter-in-law’s sake, I’ll humor you with a chat. We’ll be there in thirty minutes.”

The timing of the call was a godsend. While walking into the grand facade of VectorVista Bank’s headquarters, thoughts of her father once working within these same walls flooded Leanne with a mix of emotions that she couldn't quite place.

Maddox’s office starkly contrasted with Curtis', exuding an air of solemnity and depth characteristic of a seasoned executive.

He was at the coffee table, making coffee as Curtis led Leanne in. “Take a seat,” he said.

On the table were slices of red velvet cake and coffee specially prepared for them. “Have something to nibble on. We’ll grab lunch after we wrap up here.”

Leanne replied with a polite, “Thank you, Maddox.”

They didn’t exclude her from their conversation. Leanne sat quietly on a nearby sofa, finishing half a slice of cake. During a pause in their discussion, she asked, “May I take a look around?”

At her question, Curtis glanced her way. “Getting bored?”

Before Maddox could respond, Curtis pressed the intercom to summon the executive assistant, instructing, “Show her around.”

Maddox remained calm, sipping his coffee, seemingly unguarded toward her.

The executive assistant, who was respectful and attentive, guided Leanne through the various floors, briefly explaining the company’s organizational structure.

VectorVista Bank’s headquarters was a labyrinth of departments and subdivisions, each with its responsibilities.

Leanne remained silent most of the time, listening intently and occasionally asking questions, which the executive assistant gladly elaborated on.
