Joy was livid, like a lioness, ready to pounce and tear him apart.

“You wouldn’t know, would you? Because you were off gallivanting in Emberland, having the time of your damn life!”

Curtis, loosening his tie, suddenly froze and turned around.

“What did you say?”

“What, you got wax in your ears now?”

“She was depressed?” Curtis’ gaze became clouded in the bright conference room lights, pinning her with his stare. “When?”

“When? After you left her to jet off to Emberland!” Joy continued her relentless barrage, “I don’t know what sins Anne committed in a past life to have fallen for a jerk like you. You don’t deserve to say you love her!”

But Curtis wasn’t listening. Even as she verbally lashed him, pointing fingers and spewing anger, he remained unresponsive!

He looked as shocked as if he’d been turned to stone, all stiff and motionless.

“I’m warning you. You better get your act together and divorce Leanne properly, or I…”

Before Joy could finish her threat, Curtis, the previously motionless statue, suddenly sprang into action, striding past her toward the exit.

“Hey! I wasn’t done laying into you!”

“Take your time,” Curtis replied without turning his head, “Caleb, hand her a tape recorder.”
