"Why are you asking so many questions? Don't I have any say anymore? Remember to bring your ID and marriage certificate! Oh! Eleanor's birthday is coming up. Don't forget to prepare a gift for her!" Luna said.
"Is this what she calls discussing? It's an order!"
With the experience from my previous life, I knew exactly why she wanted me to go.
But this time, I made an excuse that I had to wait for a payment and would arrive a few days later.
Settlement meant I'd have money coming in. My money was her money. She agreed without a second thought...
She didn't forget to complain about the upcoming property and insurance fees, how Eleanor had overspent again, and how I'd better figure out how to pay off the credit card bill when it came due.
The implication was all about money. To them, I was just an ATM.
After arranging everything in the village, I arrived in Tanaxes two days earlier than the time agreed upon with Luna.
I had only visited the house we bought here twice in total.
Looking back, they never intended to give me the keys. Fortunately, I secretly made a spare key back then, just in case they lost it.
Early in the morning, I squatted downstairs for a long time, waiting until I saw Luna dressed up and heading out for work. Only then did I enter the house.
