Chapter 3 - The Fraudulent Co-Signer

"Mark isn't moving in," Jack stated clinically, entirely devoid of human mercy. "And if any of you take one more step into my living room, I am calling the police for criminal trespassing."
His mother physically staggered backward, her pale-pink cardigan wrinkling as she gasped in absolute, breathless horror.
"How dare you!" his mother shrieked wildly, violently waving her arms as her toxic authority completely collapsed. "You selfish, ungrateful brat! We are your parents! We co-signed the mortgage on this house! We have a legal right to move whoever we want into this property!"
Mark smirked, his arrogant superiority violently returning. He tapped his heavy metal clipboard against his leg.
"She's right, Jack," Mark sneered confidently. "Dad's name is on the secondary deed. This is practically a family asset. So take your laptop upstairs and let me set up my TV."
Jack didn't flinch. He didn't panic about the legal threat. He looked at his family with pure, unfiltered disgust.
"You think you co-signed my mortgage," Jack whispered coldly, his dark eyes locking entirely onto his arrogant father.
His father frowned deeply, profound confusion washing over his red face. "I know I co-signed it! I signed the bank papers in the real estate office two weeks ago! I put my name on the deed to secure your pathetic credit!"
"You didn't secure my credit, Dad," Jack explained flawlessly, completely dominating the massive room. "I bought this house entirely in cash. I haven't needed a bank loan in five years."
