Chapter 21: Last Offer
Leah held out her hand for the phone, and Nate gave it to her.
"Richard, it's Leah Mazur," she said. "I heard you."
"My company will be current by Wednesday. Don't call my husband about it again."
She hung up and handed the phone back, and Frank laughed in the front seat of the truck.
On Tuesday morning Frank sat at the head of his own kitchen table in Fox Chapel for the first time in three years.
Leah sat on his right with a folder.
Barbara sat at the far end in her robe, with her coffee going cold.
She hadn't been to the club since Saturday.
Nate stood by the counter, because this wasn't his table to sit at.
Frank pushed two pages down the cherry wood toward his wife with his left hand.
The first was the deed to the house, from 1994, with one name on it.
The second was a deposit slip for the Hausler Homes account, with the amount already filled in.
$216,000.
"Pay," Frank said.
Barbara looked at the slip and laughed, short and dry.
"I don't have it, Frank. It's spent."
"Sell," Frank said, and pointed out the window at the white car in the drive.
