Chapter 12 She Couldn’t Stay In This House Any Longer

“Dr. Thorne, do you want me to explain the law to you? If the house was bought during the marriage, even if it’s your investment, it’s still marital property. You only have half ownership.”

“Are you suggesting that Josiah also owns half, and she can mess around in my house?”

Lysanne shrugged, implying something. “If you bought it when you were single, then it belongs to you alone and has nothing to do with Josiah.”

“Miss Thorne, are you referring to ‘single’ or ‘divorced?”

“Whether it’s single or divorced, there’s no difference in the ownership of the house. Dr. Thorne, don’t misinterpret my meaning. I’m just educating you on marriage and property laws.”

Lysander chuckled and turned to Josiah. “See that? Miss Thorne can still argue with me logically, proving there’s nothing wrong.”

Josiah apologized. “Lysander-”

“Remember to transfer the $15 to me. I’m going back to the bedroom. As for the living room-this is your house; you decide whether to restore it or keep it as it is.”

Josiah caught up, grabbing her. “Lysander, don’t be angry.”

“Oh, and one more thing.” Lysander added. “Although the house is yours, I bought the curtains, sofa covers, and stuffed toys. I have receipts as evidence, so Miss Thorne must compensate for the damages accordingly. I understand property law.”

“Lysander-”

“I’ve put the roses in the entryway; those were fully paid for by you. So, it’s your property. Deal with it yourself. Stop hogging space.”

Lysander turned and headed back to the bedroom, closing the door.
