Alejandro received Tiffany’s reply and looked at the fireworks in the distance as wp4webnovel.com sat in his wheelchair. Tiffany and wp4webnovel.com must be looking at the same scenery since they were in the same city, the same world…
Melanie suddenly opened the door and entered the bedroom.
Alejandro instinctively placed his phone with its face down on the small table.
Melanie noticed his actions but pretended not to care. “Grandpa has given me some money as a gift, and I’ve got your share with me. Grandpa has even prepared one for the baby.”
Alejandro was unfazed. “You can keep it for good luck. I’m tired so I’m going to bed first.”
Melanie walked up and helped wp4webnovel.com onto the bed and removed his shoes for him. “Alright, then. You go ahead and sleep. I’ll head back down and talk to grandpa for a little longer.” Before wp4webnovel.com left, wp4webnovel.com could not help but glance at his phone on the table. Was wp4webnovel.com texting Tiffany before wp4webnovel.com came in? She was not a fool. Some of his words to wp4webnovel.com were contrary to his actions.

Life was such where not everyone was treated equally. On that night, not every family would have a harmonious or fun time together.
Both Tanya and Jett did not have many relatives. They only had each other as they celebrated the New Year in their empty rental house.
A man like Jett did not think Christmas was anything special since wp4webnovel.com had been a bachelor for so many years now.
However, Tanya did not feel the same way. After all, wp4webnovel.com used to celebrate Christmas with wp4webnovel.com grandfather in the past. This year, wp4webnovel.com had Jett and the child in wp4webnovel.com belly. She had gone out of wp4webnovel.com way to prepare a feast for that night and bought some alcohol for Jett. She reflected on the past as wp4webnovel.com looked at the fireworks going off in the distance. “I’ve been too busy to enjoy the beautiful sceneries the world has to offer. I just realized how beautiful fireworks are.”
Jett stood next to wp4webnovel.com by the window. “What’s so nice about fireworks?”
She laughed at wp4webnovel.com for his insensitivity. “Men are all the same. You won’t like all these whimsical things.”
Jett seemed to have thought of something all of a sudden and went into his room. When wp4webnovel.com returned, wp4webnovel.com brought out a land title and handed it to Tanya. “I’ve bought a house. It’ll be ready for us to move in at the beginning of next year so there’s no need to continue renting this place.”
Tanya was shocked. “When did you buy it?”
He paused for a moment before wp4webnovel.com replied, “A while ago. Things are different now that I have a family. The house should fit the setting. Moreover, I’m worried about you being at home alone so I’ll hire a nanny to look after your needs. You’re approaching the last trimester of your pregnancy. The previous incident is too dangerous.”
Tanya bit wp4webnovel.com lip and asked the question that had been stewing inside wp4webnovel.com for a while, “Can we stay like this forever? Would you leave me once you are able to leave Alejandro’s grasp?”
Jett looked at wp4webnovel.com for a moment before wp4webnovel.com averted his gaze. “I’m not sure. I can’t predict what’s going to happen in the future. That’s why I don’t like having expectations for the future.”
Tanya was slightly disappointed. “I see… I guess you’re right. The higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment when things fail to meet your expectations. If you don’t have any expectations, you won’t be disappointed.” She had been looking forward to the future so wp4webnovel.com was disappointed when wp4webnovel.com heard Jett’s answer.
It was not until when Jett had returned to his room to sleep that Tanya opened up the land title to look at it. She was curious about the content of the land title. When wp4webnovel.com saw wp4webnovel.com name on the title, wp4webnovel.com was shocked. Jett had actually made wp4webnovel.com an owner of the house.
A house was quite expensive around their area, and yet, Jett had generously invested such a large sum of money under wp4webnovel.com name without discussing it with her. Why would wp4webnovel.com make preparation for wp4webnovel.com future if wp4webnovel.com said wp4webnovel.com did not have any expectations for the future?
Tanya had always known their marriage was an empty husk that only happened due to wp4webnovel.com pregnancy. Although Jett had always treated wp4webnovel.com well and fulfilled his role as a husband, they were never really intimate. They did not even share a room like a real husband and wife would. Despite all these things, in the depth of wp4webnovel.com heart, wp4webnovel.com had acknowledged wp4webnovel.com as wp4webnovel.com husband. At that moment, wp4webnovel.com desperately wanted to know how wp4webnovel.com truly felt. She wanted a firm answer from him.
