Mom and Dad looked at my brother, relieved.

“I wanted to give it to you at dinner, but I guess you won’t miss me after this. Let’s sign the agreement, and we’ll be done

Ashley had once said that in my previous life, “If you die, all of your folks‘ money will be mine, and your brother won’t fight me for it.” Her eyes sparkled when I took out the agreement.
