He Watched Me Shine Without Him novel Chapter 101

Ethan was in no mood to pay attention to Chloe. Instead, he picked up his phone and directly called Vivian.

"Vivian, did you go house shopping this morning?" he asked.

Vivian felt a bit guilty, but she had already prepared her words. She spoke mechanically, like a robot, spouting those big principles, "Ethan, don't be angry first. It was my mom who said today is a good day and told me to come and secure the house. Since you have to go to work, I didn't want to trouble you."

"Why is the house only in your name?" Ethan's eyes were red, and he was furious.

"Vivian Brown, don't think I don't know what you and your mom are thinking. Your family's intentions are really easy to know. Buying a house before marriage and putting it in your name—doesn't that make it your personal property? Tell me, are you going to ask me to pay the mortgage after marriage? Do you take me for a fool?"

Who would have thought that Vivian's next words would slap Ethan's face hard.

"Ethan, don't worry. My dad and mom made a last-minute decision to pay for the house in full. So, this house has nothing to do with you. You don't need to pay the mortgage for me."

Ethan was stunned.

"Didn't we agree before that your family would pay the down payment and I would handle the mortgage, with the marital home in both our names?" He was furious, feeling as if he had been abandoned by the Brown family.

Vivian gave a bitter smile and said, "If the house is in your name, your mom will take advantage of the fact that it's partly yours and move in without any restraint. You know I don't want to live with the elderly."

Ethan felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him from head to toe.

The Browns' actions were understandable, but I still felt very uncomfortable inside.

Because I had been hoping that my future father-in-law will pay the down payment and I will handle the mortgage, so that I can easily own my first house in life?

"Haha, Vivian, your family is really good at calculating," he said gloomily and hung up the phone.

Vivian looked at her phone, a flicker of unease crossing her mind. She looked at her mother fearfully and said, "Mom, is what we did really too much?"

Grace sneered, "Too much? Where? He gets a free big house. He should be grateful. In my opinion, he's just never satisfied."

Vivian still felt uneasy and said, "If it were Rose, she would definitely be happy to struggle with him, to buy a house together. In that way, Ethan's greatest wish could be realized soon. Mom, I'm really worried that Ethan will be upset with me over this. After all, the child in my belly can't be without a father."

At the mention of Rose, Grace became very annoyed and said, "It's all Rose's fault for spoiling him like a spineless creature, with no backbone at all."

The salesperson came over and handed all the stamped contracts to Grace. "Madam, please keep them safe."

Grace suddenly had a whim. She asked the salesperson mysteriously, "Has the crown villa in your building been sold?"
