My Fiancee Is Marrying My Brother Chapter 12
It was Auntie Dolly, carrying a small pot of gardenias."Your mother once asked me to look after this for her. The soil has been changed several times, but the flowers lived on until now."I took the pot inside and placed it by the window. The old gardenia tree planted by my mother was still blooming in the courtyard.Noticing the photo album on the desk, Auntie Dolly made no move to flip through it."When your mother left you this manor back then, she asked me if she was showing you too much favoritism.""What did you say?""I told her that what she gave her two sons were different, and they needed to realize it for themselves. She said she would write it down clearly in a letter."Thinking of my mother's letter, I nodded."She did write it down."Auntie Dolly didn't stay long, reminding me before she left that gardenias shouldn't be kept cooped up indoors all the time.Early the next morning, I moved the plant to a spot where it could catch the sunlight.Over the past year

Upon being discharged, my father returned to the east wing of the family manor.Before the inheritance registration was finalized, he and I laid down the boundaries of our living arrangements in writing: his room, the walking routes within the courtyard, and transportation for medical visits would remain as usual.As for the keys to the rest of the house, neither he nor Tiffany could duplicate them for anyone else anymore.He read it twice before signing."You are treating us like outsiders and are on guard against us.""Before the wedding, you duplicated the keys for someone else."He said nothing more, placing the spare keys on the table.When Tiffany came to pack her clothes and saw the key ring, she asked if I intended to block her from entering the kitchen as well."Normal daily routines won't be blocked. My mother's room and my own room require knocking first."She forced a smile, yet agreed right in front of my father.I replaced the broken doorbell for the east wing a

When I arrived at the hospital, my father had already finished his examinations, and the doctor advised him to stay for a few days of observation.Aunt Alicia was waiting outside the hospital room. Her first words to me were to ask me not to bring up the manor for the time being."Your father is genuinely ill this time.""I know. I'll find out the details later.""Can you please call him 'Dad' once more?""I'm not here to settle old scores with a patient."Aunt Alicia breathed a sigh of relief, assuming I had agreed to much more.Without offering any explanation, I went inside to consult the doctor regarding his medication and follow-up schedule.Seeing me come in, my father raised his hand and pointed to the stool beside the bed."I'm glad you're willing to come.""The doctor said someone needs to keep an eye on you over the next few days. A caregiver will arrive this afternoon.""You even have to hire someone just to sit here?"I placed the water glass within his reach.

A week later, Mathilda came back to the family manor.I was busy packing up the seat cards left over from the wedding. She stood outside the courtyard gate, holding a paper bag."I can't even go in anymore?""If you have something to say, just say it here."She placed the paper bag on the steps. Inside were ticket stubs, photographs, and two books of mine that I had left at her place.The ring wasn't among them; it was already tucked away in the drawer of my apartment."That box... did you keep it?""I did."A glimmer of light flickered in her eyes."Does that mean you still can't let go?""Not throwing things away doesn't mean I'm waiting for you to come back."That glimmer slowly faded away.Seeing the seat cards in my hand, she reached out and gently touched the corner.The original label of "Groom's Family" had been crossed out and replaced with "Elder Brother"."I didn't know about this.""Someone changed it for you. Just like the invitations.""I know you won't be

My father glanced at it, then tried to flip the receipt over.I pressed my finger down on the corner of the paper first."Three years ago, you signed for the collection notice. You told the lawyer that you already handed the duplicate copy to me.""There are so many trivial matters around the house, I don't remember.""I asked you about it back then, and you told me she didn't leave anything behind.""You had just lost your mother at the time. I didn't want you to trouble yourself over money."Aunt Chloe stood up."Yet you didn't find it troublesome when it came to retrieving the savings left for Ivan."Ivan looked at our father as well."You told me back then that you would give Jack's share to him."My father turned toward him, his voice dropping low."I meant we would make arrangements together as a family! Why are you stirring up trouble right now?""You told me the family manor would belong to me sooner or later, and told me to wait for you to persuade Jack.""I only

The banquet would be held two weeks later.I called my father to ask what he was planning to announce."It's my 60th birthday, and I'm treating my family to a meal. Do I need to report that to you as well?""Having a meal is fine. Just don't make any statements on my behalf anymore.""What else can I make a statement on? You don't even see me as your father anymore."He hung up, but shortly afterward, he had Aunt Alicia inform me that I must attend.Mr. Zeller finished reviewing the documents with me and asked if it was necessary for me to attend the banquet.I showed him the invitation."He's inviting the exact same relatives who were at the wedding. If I don't show up, they'll hear a completely different version of the story tomorrow.""I can go with you, but presenting these documents today doesn't mean the inheritance procedures are fully completed.""I know. I just don't want them to make any statement using my name anymore."The day before the banquet, I went back to r
