Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back (Leanne Castillo) novel Chapter 440

Her eyes shimmered with a bright expectancy, and Curtis gently tapped his forehead against hers. Leanne blinked, her lashes softly grazing his jawline like feathers.

Curtis drawled, "Doesn't look like it's on this side. Why don't you check the other side?"

Turning her head, Leanne indeed spotted her photo on the nightstand across the bed.

Just over three years, yet, looking at her younger self, she sensed a certain naivety.

After gazing at the photo for a while, she put it back in its place.

An arm snaked around her waist as Curtis hugged her from behind. They stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of their high-rise, overlooking the dazzling night view of Starlake.

The two years they had missed each other finally converged at this moment.

Leanne wrote on the glass, leaving no trace or fog, as Curtis watched her every move until she dotted the last letter.

He kissed her, leading her to the bed, where they embraced and possessed each other passionately across the ocean, pouring out all their love at that moment.

The afternoon sun shone down on Stonebridge.

As they disembarked from the plane, Joy, who had eagerly come to pick them up, jumped and waved, shouting, "I'm here! Welcome home, baby!"

Leanne's phone buzzed with messages, but she hardly had time to look. They squeezed her into a car, sandwiching her between them, chattering all the way.

"Sandra in your hospital or whatever got her license revoked, and your chief got fired too."

Who would donate in his name?

Curtis, with a thoughtful tap of his finger on his knee, asked, "What about the article? Did you find anything?"

"The newspaper closed down seven years ago due to financial issues. The reporter who wrote it has since emigrated, but she admitted to being commissioned to visit the orphanage and write the story about the heroic sacrifice of the Castillo family."

"It was Mary’s doing, wasn't it?" Curtis seemed unsurprised.

"Yes," Caleb confirmed, "She played a significant role, using public opinion to pressure your parents to adopt Leanne."

Curtis was right in guessing that Mary had a big hand in all this.
