Chapter 61 

“Can I have the Northwood Mansion?” Leanne asked, her voice tinged with an undeniable.

Curtis paused, the cigarette in his hand momentarily forgotten as he peered into the deepening night. His tone was enigmatic, “Why the Northwood Mansion?” 

“Because it’s valuable,” Leanne stated plainly. ” haven’t lived in any of your houses exc 

except 

for this one and the one at Northwood.” 

Curtis took a drag, the smoke curling into the chilly air, ghostly against the darkness, “If it’s value you’re after, this place is worth more than Northwood Mansion.” 

In terms of value, the Crystal Cove Villas, his wedding gift from his parents, was at least three times more expensive than the Northwood Mansion. 

“That was your parents’ wedding gift to you. You might need it in the future.” 

“Do you think I’d live in that house after getting married again?” 

Fair point. Suzan wouldn’t be too keen on moving into a house that had once symbolized his union with another woman. 

“I don’t want it either,” Leanne retorted. “You and your lover can live wherever you like. Just give me the Northwood Mansion.” 

“What do you want to do with it?” Curtis prodded once more. 

“Is it so wrong to sell it for money?” 

Curtis replied, “If it’s money you want, asking for cash would be simpler.” 

Leanne’s irritation flared up. She’d been asked to make a request, but when she did, it was met with pushback.

Curtis let out an ambiguous chuckle. 

“Do

His cigarette was done and he snuffed it out in a planter by the door. “Even if Stonebridge’s municipal services are subpar, they wouldn’t let a main route stay c

Leanne froze, a single tear teetering on the edge of her eyelashes. 

“What do you mean?” she asked.. 

Curtis didn’t answer, nor did he look at her, as he opened his car door.

He got into his Bentley and drove off, leaving Leanne to chase after him impulsively to know what he meant by his words. 

During that month at Northwood Mansion, she had never doubted Curtis. 

He said the road was still out, that the food was delivered by drones from the nearby community. 

He complained about the lazy city officials, suggesting they might wait until spring thaw to fix things.
