My hand froze as I was about to dial back the number, and the ice cream in my mouth instantly lost its sweetness.

It was 35 degrees Celsius, but I felt cold from head to toe.

It was my daughter who brought me back to reality.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Anna, Mommy is so hot that her eyes are sweating."

I wiped my tears and took my daughter to eat another bucket of ice cream before I completely calmed down.

From childhood to adulthood, my brother and I have had the best relationship. If he knew that I was getting divorced, he would definitely feel bad for me.

With the last bit of hope, I returned home.

When my daughter saw my mother, she jumped up to her happily, but my mother muttered with a dark face:

"Just divorce me, you're still dragging me along!"

On the table were the braised pork knuckles that my brother likes, the steamed fish that my sister-in-law likes, and my father's side dishes, but the spareribs I mentioned were missing.

I deliberately asked, "Mom, you didn't make spareribs? Didn't you go to the supermarket today?"

My mother explained impatiently: "It's so hot, I didn't go out because I felt uncomfortable. If you really want to eat, just order takeout!"

I lowered my head and sneered, seeing through it but not saying it out loud.

I pulled the suitcase back to my room, and when I pushed the door open, I found it was full of toys of my brother's son Jack.

"Mom, where is my bed?"

"This house is such a mess, where will Anna and I stay tonight?"

My mother didn't even turn her head: "It's because you came back suddenly. You were not here normally, so now it's Jack's toy room."

Six-year-old Jack muttered: "What? I don't play in this room at all..."

Halfway through his words, my mother covered Jack's mouth.

I immediately realized that this was a lie.

" Anna and I will stay in this room tonight. Please help me clean it up later."

At this time, my sister-in-law Jasmine rushed out: "Sophia, what do you mean? You come back and grab the child's room? Is there any aunt like you?"

"Don't think you can bully others just because you paid for the house. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Even if this house is not given to Jack, it is not your turn to live in it!"

Jasmine pointed at the room and yelled. I didn't bother to answer her and turned to ask my mom:

"Mom, what do you mean? You won't let me live at home?"

My mother sighed helplessly, "Sophia, it's not that I don't allow you to live here, but your dad just broke his leg and I can't take care of him. This room has to be left for the nanny."

What a coincidence.

They really went to great lengths to get me out.

Jasmine looked at me smugly, but I didn't get angry. I just picked up the toy car in the room and threw it outside.

"There are so many idle people at home, why spend money to hire a nanny? Just let Qiangzi and her take care of Dad."

Jasmine seemed to have her tail stepped on and screamed like crazy:

"Sophia, what do you mean? Who has time to spare? You think you are being filial by giving some money? Usually it's Qiangzi and I who take care of our parents. I tell you, go back to where you came from! Or you can live on the balcony!"

"Why?" I asked coldly and threw out another teddy bear.

Jack was spoiled and rushed over to hit me immediately:

"Throw my toys and beat me to death, you bad woman!"

I bought most of these toys for him. Looking at this little bastard, it would be a lie to say that I didn’t feel heartbroken.

When my daughter saw me being bullied, she got into a fight with Jack .

The two children screamed and cried, and finally woke up my brother who was playing games.

"What are you arguing about? It's not a big deal. Sis, you stay at home. Jasmine and I will move out."

I finally felt touched. I felt that my love for him was not in vain. There is still someone in this family who cares about me.

I sat down to eat and had a cold face the whole time.

My brother smiled and picked up some food for me, and asked with concern: "Sister, did you have a fight with your brother-in-law?"

"That's enough. We are already an old couple. I think my brother-in-law will have to bleed again this time."

When these words came out, my mother and Jasmine's eyes sparkled.

In the past, I did have conflicts with my ex-husband and went home to relax.

Every time he came to my house, he would invite me back and generously honor my parents. Naturally, my brother and Jasmine also benefited from it.

But unfortunately, they were disappointed.

I remained calm and solemnly announced, "We didn't have a fight, we're divorced. Anna is mine."

"So I'm going to live in the parent's house, and you two don't have to move out. Just vacate that room."
