The divorce settlement was more than Regina Carter had wanted. Hell, she hadn't wanted anything but the judge sympathized with her. Her now ex-husband Joseph, was, after all, 'loaded'. All Regina wanted was ten thousand dollars so she could start rebuilding her life.
The judge awarded her $100 million. Small change, seeing as how Joseph was a self made billionaire.
The divorce was thankfully kept quiet and hidden from the media. All she had wanted to do anyway was leave town, move else where and not look back. Was that too much to ask? She wouldn't miss the glamour, the endless travelling around the world... She would've given that all up if it meant she could have a husband who was home more than a few days and who was also faithful.
Two months later
Regina found herself in the middle of nowhere Wyoming, working at a small coffee shop as she tried to earn an honest living. She had given most of her money away to various charities and organizations, all under an anonymous name.
She had used some of the money to buy a small farm on the outskirts of town, along with a few horses and other barnyard animals. Did she know how to take care of them? No. But, she thought she was doing a damn good job so far as they were all still alive.
Keeping mostly to herself, Regina's trust in anyone had long ago vanished...all thanks to Joseph.
As she pulled the small truck up to the farmhouse, Regina cut the engine and grabbed her two small bags of groceries. Most days after work, she ate something at the diner but today, she wanted something home cooked. Making her way in, she looked at her phone and sighed. Nothing. She had put the word out that she was looking for someone to help her part time on the farm, perhaps teach her a thing or two about the animals. It had been a few days and still nothing. She had surmised it was probably because it was only a part time thing and no one wanted to work part time anymore.
But she did come to the conclusion she needed help and with winter fast approaching, she was going to need it.
