If I bought a very expensive house for my father, should I ensure that if anything happens to him the house will return to me?

Id like to gift my father a house. My father is married to my stepmother and they have two children. Throughout the years my step mother has never treated me well. When I try to have a relationship with my siblings Im blocked or given a lot of difficulty. If I do not say anything it is very likely that my father would leave the house to his wife and children. And they will of reaped the benefits from a person they did not treat fairly. Should I just ignore this or ensure the house is returned to me?
P.S. I would not kick them out or anything. They just would not be able to sell it and get money from me.

Do you have an attorney?’
If you can afford to gift a house
You should be smart enough to discuss this with an attorney and not a bunch of strangers on some website right?

[@luctoretemergoMy lawyer would say to leave in my name but Im wondering if Im being selfish by not putting his name. Its like giving him something thats not actually his
