?Chapter 1727:
He had swallowed his pride and turned to Ethan and Brenna for help simply because Shari wanted a bigger ce. For her, there was nothing he wouldn’t do.
In his heart, Shari was far better than Elsa.
She was soft-spoken and never raised her voice at him. Every decision, big or small, she discussed with him, never acting alone. Emmett believed that meeting Shari had been a stroke of luck for him, a cosmic reward after decades of surviving life with Elsa.
Unable to contain his excitement, Emmett snapped photo after photo of the house and sent every shot to Shari.
“This ce is incredible, Brenna. Thank you,” he said, beaming with joy.
He took in the house’s design, every inch radiating ss and quiet luxury. Living here would lift their social standing and, more importantly, make Shari happy.
To Brenna, the gesture meant little. Lending her father-inw a house was no big deal. Even signing it over wouldn’t have bothered her.
As soon as Emmett returned home, Shari greeted him with an eager hug, her delight impossible to miss. “I knew Ethan wouldn’t turn you down if you asked in person. He’s your son. How could he ever say no to you?” she said.
Wanting to spare Shari the truth about Ethan’s refusal, Emmett smiled and said, “Brenna made it happen. She insisted. The deed will be in our hands soon. Then it’ll be officially ours.”
Shari kissed his cheek, and Emmett’s heart brimmed with joy. He couldn’t helpparing her to Elsa, thinking again that she was far better.
“Take me to see it, darling. I want to walk through our new home,” Shari said, eyes shining.
Ever since their wedding, she had mentioned wanting a bigger house several times. Emmett always brushed it off, but watching her endure pregnancy, struggling with pain and exhaustion, changed everything for him.

At her age, putting her life on the line to have a child gave him no excuse to turn down her simple request.
All she wanted was for their son to give her a house, and he couldn’t imagine Ethan saying no.
But Ethan refused, leaving him furious, though he kept his anger to himself so he wouldn’t upset Shari while she was expecting.
“We can go see the ce right now. Brenna already set everything up, so the security will let us in,” Emmett said.
Shari’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “How soon do you think we can move in?”
Emmett gave her a reassuring smile. “Whenever you like. The ce is ready for us. We could just show up with a suitcase and settle in.”
“Let’s do it tomorrow!” Shari eximed, unable to hide her joy.
Wasting no time, Emmett took Shari out for a first look at their new house.
The sprawlingwn and grand entry left Shari stunned. The space was sovish that it felt like stepping into a private pce.
“Brenna’s really thoughtful. We’ll have to invite her over for a meal once we move in,” Shari said, beaming.
Shari’s smile was infectious, lifting Emmett’s spirits as well.
