Chapter 8

As the wedding date approached, I could feel Snow becoming more nervous.

Out of sympathy for Snow, and out of care for someone who would soon be family, I often spent time with her during this period,

Helping her with various tasks, hoping to ease her nervousness and help her relax.

On this day, while chatting with Snow, I casually mentioned where she and Jack would live after getting married,

Snow looked at me with confusion and said,

"We'll live in the house I'm staying in now, why do you ask, sis?"

Hearing Snow's words, I felt my heart tighten, and I repeated,

"You and Jack will live in the house you're staying in now?"

Snow looked at me, though confused, she patiently said,

"Yes, sis! Jack said the house I'm living in now will be our future marital home, and he had already decorated it before I came. Jack is such a thoughtful man..."

I watched Snow's face grow happier as she spoke, while my heart grew colder.

That evening, as soon as Charlie got home, before he could even change his shoes, I ran up to him,

"Charlie, your brother wants to use our marital home as his marital home."

Hearing my words, Charlie was visibly stunned.

"Honey, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Could it be that Charlie didn't know about this? Looking at the confused Charlie, I couldn't help but wonder.

"..., That's how it is. I found out accidentally while chatting with Snow today."

As I explained the situation to Charlie, I observed his reactions, but until I finished, he just frowned and remained silent.

My face was cold as frost, "Charlie, whether you knew about this before or not, you should understand the situation now. I don't care if it was your brother's or your mother's idea, you'd better give me a satisfactory answer."

Actually, before Snow finished speaking, I had already guessed that regardless of whose idea it was, the ultimate goal was to give my house to Jack as his future marital home.

Charlie seemed unnerved by my stare, "Honey, don't be angry. Let me go ask Mom and Jack about this."

Without waiting for my response, Charlie grabbed his coat and hurried out the door.
