My Late Partners Parents..
After Jason’s death, Alice was confronted by his estranged parents, Susan and Charles, who demanded the house Jason had bought. Despite their abandonment of Jason during his life, they now claimed ownership, invoking the law to justify their demand. Alice, grieving and determined, agreed to consider their claim—but only if they could answer a question that haunted Jason until his final days.
When Jason was 17, his parents threw him out without explanation, leaving him heartbroken. Alice’s mother took him in, and he became part of their family. Over the years, Alice and Jason leaned on each other—she pursued a career in HR, while Jason thrived with computers. However, their world shattered when Jason was diagnosed with bone cancer. Alice took on extra hours to support them, but Jason’s parents never reached out.A month after Jason’s funeral, Susan and Charles appeared at Alice’s door. Susan expressed fake sympathy, while Charles demanded the house. “Jason was our son, and this house should be ours now,” he said coldly. The lawyer they brought argued that without a will, Jason’s parents had legal rights. Alice stood firm, revealing that Jason had transferred the house to her name before he died. She offered to sell it to them at cost, but they couldn’t afford it.
In a moment of tension, Alice revealed a letter from Jason. As Susan read it aloud, the letter read: “I’ve made peace with what is. I hope one day you can forgive yourselves, too.” Shocked and disappointed, Susan and Charles were left speechless. Alice, her voice steady, demanded, “Why did you cut ties with your son? If you can answer honestly, I’ll consider your request.” The parents’ guilt and avoidance were evident, and Alice refused to let them take what wasn’t theirs. “That’s not good enough. It’ll never be good enough,” she said. Defeated, they left without the house, and Alice was left to protect Jason’s memory and legacy.
