The unexpected question left me stunned. My mind had been preoccupied with thoughts of revenge, and I hadn't anticipated Carter asking me something like this.

I realized I hadn't really thought about him. These past few days, I'd been focused on my mom, constantly watching her emotions. I didn't have the energy to think about anything else. "Alright, I know the answer now. I'll have someone keep an eye on Sadie and Anna," Carter said.

"Hmm, thanks for handling that. Oh, and by the way suddenly remembered something.

"Sure. When are you coming home?"

I thought for

"Not sure. It might take a while. Mom's mood is still unstable."

He didn't reply right away, and I wondered if he was angry.

After getting married, most husbands probably wouldn't like their wives constantly going back to their parents' house, right?

I added, "Actually, I'm really happy with you as my husband."

Thinking he would be coming over tonight, I knew he didn't lack anything material, but the one thing I
