Chapter 113: Secret Affair

Chapter 113: Secret Affair.

When Ivy got into her car, Bud lifted his head. "Are you alright, ma'am?” "Yes," Ivy answered, nodding. Her heart raced from all that Rita had told her. Her phone buzzed and she reached for it. Tim New was calling.

"Hello," she said, her voice was so small that she thought he hadn't heard her.

"Mrs. Stone. We are officially done, you can come around," Tim said, sounding pleased.

"Okay. I'm on my way," she said and ended the call. Then she faced Bud, "Tim New is done with the building."

"Okay, ma'am," Bud said, and started the car.

Ivy sank into the car, her heart racing with emotion. She didn't even know where to begin with her thoughts.

Was Theresa cheating on Wills? How true was this? Did Wills know? Was this why they had issues? Or was Theresa just feeling guilty?

She had to know, so she dialed Theresa's number, hoping to convince her that they could meet.

But Theresa didn't pick up, so she tried again. On the third ring, when the call was still not answered, Ivy gave up.

She sighed out loud just as Bud entered the premises.

"Thank you, Bud," she said getting out of the car.

Tim and Lynn were outside, sitting by a car. They straightened up when they saw her.

"Mrs Stone," Tim greeted.

"Are you all done?" Ivy asked.

"All done, ma'am," Tim smiled, then he pulled out a bunch of keys from his pocket. "Your company keys, ma'am. Congratulations."

Ivy's breath hitched as she took the keys, happiness swelling in her chest. "Thank you."

"Congratulations, ma'am," Lynn added.

"Thank you, Lynn."

"The place needs thorough cleaning. I could link you with people who could help," Lynn suggested.

"That would be nice," Ivy smiled gratefully.

"They will get the job done immediately," Lynn added.

"That's great. Please let me have their contact," Ivy said and Lynn gave it to her. "Thank you."

"You're welcome, ma'am."
