Chapter 1
Leanne Castillo had just finished a delicate retinal reattachment surgery and was stepping out of the OR. After scrubbing out, she flicked on her phone to find a call from Joy Campbell, her bestie.
“Babe, your hubby’s back in town?” asked Joy.
“I’ve been trying to hit you up for lunch, but you ignored me. What’s up? Your man flies back, and you don’t give your best friend a heads-up?”
Leanne shut her locker and headed out. “Just got out of surgery. I had no idea he was flying in today.”
“What?” Joy’s no-nonsense tone burst through, “That jerk, he’s returned and didn’t even bother to call you?”
Leanne sighed. “When has he ever?”
It had barely been six months since they tied the knot when Curtis Richardson had jetted off to Starlake City without discussion with Leanne.
He’d return once or twice a year, landing without giving her a heads-up every time.
But Curtis did have a brilliant mind. In just a few years, his ElitePinnacle Investments had carved out a legend on Bullion Boulevard.
At 27, he was already on the list of the top 50 most influential people in global finance and graced the cover of “The Banker” magazine, all of which Leanne had learned from the financial news, not from him.
“Girl, your man’s return is all over the news. The girls at the office have been buzzing about it all day, and here you are, totally clueless.”
