After dinner, Sadie brought Brenda and the kids home.


    As the family approached the entrance of theirmunity, they were warmly greeted by the developer''s representatives and the property management team. A security guard even helped Brenda with her bags, lending a hand with the family'' parcels and packages.


    Brenda couldn''t help but praise them for their excellent service, then she leaned in to whisper to Sadie, "Miss, the HOA fees here must cost a fortune, right?"


    "They''re a bit pricey, but don''t worry about it. I got a raise," Sadie whispered back, not wanting to cause Brenda any concern.


    "But no matter how much you''re making now, it seems like a big spend for rent and HOA feesbined, doesn''t it?" Brenda said with a worried look.


    "The house is bought and paid for. All the paperwork is ready. We just need Miss Roth to sign on the dotted lines," the developer''s representative interjected with a smile. "Bought it?" Brenda''s eyes widened in surprise. "Miss, where did you get the money?"


    "I achieved something big for thepany, and my employer rewarded me," Sadie murmured. "Don''t stress about it, Brenda. Let''s just enjoy our new home as a family."


    Brenda was silent after that, her expression still serious.


    Once inside, the family was stunned. Their new home was nothing like the ces they had lived in before. It was modern, spacious, and bright, with a romantic and cozy atmosphere.


    Every piece of furniture and every decoration had been chosen with care clearly a lot of thought had gone into each selection.


    The staff led them through the rooms. The master bedroom was vast,plete with a walk-in closet, a desk, and an en suite bathroom.


    There were two kids'' rooms, one designed for a princess and the other for a prince.


    The princess room was beautifully adorned, just like something out of a fairy tale, decked in pink and white tones with elegant drapes and an assortment of dolls that would make any girl''s heart soar. "Wow, it''s so beautiful!!" Mia eximed as she burst into the room, bounding onto the bed with joy.


    "Come and see our room!" Noah and Nathan couldn''t wait to show off their prince-themed room.


    Their room featured two beds against a backdrop of sci-fi inspired decor. One bed was fashioned like an airne and the other like a car.


    And there were toys everywhere-toys that the boys had longed for but could never afford.


    "Wow! This is awesome!" one of the boys shouted.


    "I love it, too!" agreed the other, as they excitedly explored and yed with every toy before piling onto their beds, theirughter filling the room. "Brenda, this is your room. Pleasee have a look," said one of the staff members, leading Brenda to her space.


    Sadie quickly followed them into the room.


    For Brenda, there was an ergonomic bed designed for seniors and aforting massage chair. Consideration for herfort was evident in every detail.


    Brenday down to test it out and sighed with relief. "Man, this feels great. After a long day''s work, my back''s usually killing me. Going out for a professional massage? Costs money and time. Now, I can get some relief right at home." "That''s specially set up for you," the staff member said with a smile.


    "Thank you! Thank you so much!" Brenda replied, deeply touched.


    The property manager demonstrated how to use thetest household appliances and adjusted the central air conditioning and venttion system for Brenda. After ensuring everything was in order, they left.


    Sadie watched Brenda and the kids reveling in their happiness and felt a surge of contentment. Yet, her emotions were mixed. Everything was wless, arranged down to thest detail by Dahlia. But ultimately, everything came from Micah. What if he became upset one day and took it all back? The disappointment would destroy the kids.


    Shaking her head, Sadie stopped herself from spiraling into worries.


    After ying with the kids for a bit and putting them down for their nap, Sadie quickly changed clothes, grabbed her purse, and prepared to head out.


    "Say-Say, are you going out?" Brenda, just back from shopping, chirped. "There''s a market right here in theplex. I bought groceries. I''ll cook up something delicious tonight to celebrate our move!"


    "No need to prepare food for me. I''m going to visit the cemetery. I''m not sure when I''ll return."
