Bride to Be, Not Me

Chapter 9 Janice stared at her crochet desk, which had collapsed on the floor.

She sent Simon a text. Then, she put her desk back in place and continued fixing her crochet design.

After getting home, Simon hadn't checked his phone. He did so deliberately as he was waiting for Janice to call him with her apology.

After all, she had always done that. It was always Janice who apologized and gave in.

"Have you two argued?" asked Helena after noticing that Simon looked displeased.

He tugged at his tie in frustration and replied, "It's nothing."

"Good for you! You should've broken up with her a long time ago. She's like the plague that will only cause trouble for us! Calm down and have some hangover medicine."

"It doesn't matter. She'll call me to apologize soon," Simon announced confidently, as though he was sure Janice would apologize.

"Simon," Helena started. She seized the opportunity and sat down beside him.

With a calculative glint in her eye, she continued, "The truth is that Sarah hasn't been doing well for the past few years. In the future, we'll stay here to help you.

"However, Sarah can't keep staying at your place. It's inappropriate. Why don't you get her a house?"

Simon asked, "Doesn't she have one already?"

"You're a powerful CEO now. It'll be embarrassing on your part if your sister stays in a regular neighborhood. I don't need you to spend any more money. The one you currently have is good enough."

Simon frowned and said, "Janice paid for half of the property."

"Isn't she your girlfriend? What's hers is yours. So what if a woman doesn't have a house? Tell her about this and persuade her to give the house to Sarah.

"It's under your name anyway. You can change it to Sarah's name when you're free. If you need to, you can just pay Janice off," said Helena.
