The Queen Returns And She’s Unforgiving

Chapter 202

Evelyn did not quite get what Justine was getting at.

"What's wrong? The full payment has already come through, and the project is up and running. What do you think?"

Justine looked even more baffled. "I went to the recorder's office today. You know how my dad bought me two apartments? I went to handle the paperwork for them. Guess who I ran into?"

"Who?"

"Michael, Lucas' assistant," Justine said, still in disbelief. "He was there handling some real estate matters for Lucas. I asked one of the employees about it, and they told me the property Michael was dealing with was at Peninsula Heights."

Evelyn's expression slowly stiffened. Peninsula Heights was where their marital home was. What did that even mean?

A trace of disbelief flickered across Evelyn's face. She immediately pulled out her phone and messaged the agent who had helped her list the property for sale.

The agent typed, "Ms. Reed, the buyer's identity is confidential, but the person who came to sign for it was with the Pine last name."

Well, there was no more doubt about it. The buyer of the marital home was Lucas.

She had put the house up for sale, and he had silently bought it back. It was no wonder that, on the day the sale was finalized, he had asked her that odd question.
