In the end, we chose a spacious penthouse with a large balcony.
When I got the deed, I was shocked to see only my name on it.
“This…” I turned to Daniel in surprise. “This isn’t fair to you!”
How was this different from just giving me an apartment? Why was he being so generous?
But Daniel just stroked my hair and said, “Don’t worry about it. Consider it my wedding gift to you.”

Then he handed me a credit card. “Take this too.”
“What is it?”

“My salary account.” He said it like it was the most natural thing in the world. “I’m not good with finances or managing money.
We’re married now – what’s mine is yours. You can handle our finances from now on.”
I carefully tucked away everything he gave me, silently promising to manage it well.
“You can drop me at the hospital,” I told him. “I want to visit my grandma.
“If you’re busy, it’s fine, I can go alone…”
“I’m coming with you,” he interrupted firmly. “How could I be too busy? This is my duty as your husband.”
“Grandma, we’re here to see you!”
I rushed to Grandma’s bedside as soon as we entered, my heart aching at the sight of her silver hair and wrinkles.
“It’s Sarah,” Grandma took my hand, her expression warm. “Let me have a good look at you. Oh dear, you’ve lost weight. Has
someone been mistreating you?”
Hearing her words, all the grievances I had been holding back suddenly overwhelmed me. I threw myself into her arms, hugging

“Grandma, I’ve missed you so much.”
When I was little, my parents were always busy working. Grandma raised me. In our family, she loved me the most.
“I’ve missed you too.” She stroked my hair gently, then looked up at Daniel. “And who’s this young man?”
“Well,” I answered shyly. “This is Daniel. He’s… he’s my husband…”
“Hello, Grandma. I’m Sarah’s husband.”
Daniel stepped forward immediately to greet her, placing the bouquet of flowers and fresh fruit we’d bought by her bedside.
“Oh my!” Grandma’s face lit up with joy. “Wonderful! He’s handsome and seems very proper. Such a fine young man!”
I caught Daniel’s ears turning red and had to hide my smile against Grandma’s shoulder, So he could get embarrassed too.
“Our Sarah finally has someone to call her own.” Grandma held my hand, speaking earnestly. “You two must take good care of each other, understand and support one another, alright?”
“Don’t worry, Grandma.” Daniel took my hand seriously. “I’ll spend my whole life making Sarah happy.”
“Good, good!” Grandma’s face beamed with happiness. “Seeing Sarah settled down, this old woman can rest easy now.”
“That’s not enough – you need to live to a hundred.”

Daniel held Grandma’s hand. “When Sarah and I have children, you’ll be the first to hold them.”
My face turned crimson, and I gave him a gentle smack. “W–what children? We just got
