When Jason’s estranged parents suddenly showed up demanding the house he left behind, Alice was shocked. Despite her grief, she listened but told them she would only agree if they answered the one question that haunted Jason until his last days. Jason had been cast out by them years ago, and now they expected to claim his home without apology.
Jason had come to Alice as a broken teen after being rejected by his family. Her mother welcomed him in without hesitation, and they built a life together through hard times. When Jason was diagnosed with cancer, Alice worked tirelessly to keep the house and their life intact. Despite his illness, Jason held hope his parents might reconcile but they never tried.
After Jason’s funeral, his parents demanded the house, claiming legal rights as next of kin without a will. Alice stood her ground, explaining Jason had put the house in her name before he died. The parents pressed to take over payments or fight in court, but Alice refused to back down without hearing the truth behind their abandonment.
Alice confronted them with Jason’s final letter a message of forgiveness but no invitation to take his home. She challenged them to honestly answer why they cut ties with him. Their silence and hollow excuses revealed the deep wounds they caused. In the end, they left defeated, and Alice secured Jason’s legacy in the home they shared.
