The two sides have already agreed on the price, and the other details were not hard to discuss, so they quickly signed a contract and just waited for the other party to pay.
Once the money came in, it's not a problem for the three of them to buy a house in Riverton.
After finishing their business collaboration, they had a whole day left, so the three of them indulged in having fun. They went crazy all day long and didn't return to Riverton until 10 p.m. on Sunday night.
Abigail and Zack remained uncertain if Cornelia was truly okay, for after the incident, she had mastered concealing her emotions.
"What are you two up to? Don't worry about me, I'm really fine." Cornelia punched them both playfully, "Once we get the copyright money, let's go house hunting. We'll buy a house in the same community, and continue living together."
Zack and Abigail agreed, "Yeah, let's work hard to buy a house and have our own home in Riverton."
"Then let's go to sleep." Cornelia yawned, "It's getting late, and I need to get up early for work tomorrow."
Zack and Abigail said, "Good night."
The next morning, as soon as Cornelia crawled out of bed, her personal phone buzzed on the bedside table. Having learned from the experience last week, she had set her personal phone to silent mode.
She reached for her phone, still half-asleep, and didn't forget to greet the caller, "Hello, hi!"
A strange male voice came from the phone, "Ms. Stewart, I'm the representative lawyer for Mr. Jeremy."
Her husband, who had been "missing" for over a year, suddenly contacted her for a divorce a few days ago, and now there's a representative lawyer. Could he be in trouble?
Maybe he owed a bunch of money he can't pay back, and the authorities had found her, knowing she had money, and wanted her to pay for him.
