Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back (Leanne Castillo) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 

Leanne strode back into the fray, her arms outstretched to separate the tussled Joy and Selina. 

“Are you still naughty kids?” she asked with an exasperated sigh. 

Joy snorted and ran her fingers through her hair, “Had I not taken pity on her condition, I would’ve sent her flying with a single slap at just thirty percent effort.” 

Selina huffed back, “How arrogant! Just wait till my leg heals up, and I’ll show you moves that made me queen bee at school.”

“You know,” Joy said with a sideways glance at Leanne’s slender arms, “Despite her limp, she’s got the fight of three of you in her.” 

“Talk is cheap,” Leanne retorted, her pride intact. “It’s not that I can’t take you down, it’s just that I’m not into playing dirty.” 

Before Joy could respond, Selina let out a mocking laugh. 

“You? Fight her? She could squash you just by sitting on you.” 

Leanne and Joy were at a loss for words and both felt slightly insulted. 

Leanne gave Joy a nudge, “Let’s get out of here.” 

“Are you leaving?” Selina pouted, feigning sorrow, “Who’s going to keep me company?” 

Leanne grabbed her coat, turning to say, “You should be back at the hospital. Send me a selfie from your ward by ten. If I don’t get it, I’ll have a word with your nurse.”

replied. “Ah, it’s a pretty decent experience.” 

Joy, itching for a turn, said, “Let me have a go sometime.” 

Seeing Curtis’ reflection in the rearview mirror, Jake squirmed uncomfortably, “Uh, Ms. Campbell, this is Mr. Curtis’ car.” 

Joy playfully suggested, “Just sneak me the keys when he’s out of town.” 

Jake was at a loss for words. 

Leanne was speechless too. 

Could 

you at least not suggest a grand theft auto in front of Curtis? 

From the back, Curtis’ cool voice cut in, “I’m not deaf. Perhaps you need a megaphone for your little scheme.” 

Joy, who typically avoided Curtis with his air of nonchalant aristocracy and intimidating aura, felt emboldened by her frustration, “You’re not deaf, but you are blind.” 

Leanne cautioned, “Joy, that’s enough.” 

Curtis’ indifferent gaze swept past, “If you weren’t Leanne’s friend, with that lack of brains, you’d be long gone by now.”
