Chapter 270
"No cause for concern. I will soon recover. Don't worry." Elvira smiled weakly. She had a good impression of her sister-in-law in their first meeting.
Perhaps because Grace resembled Zach and Alice, Elvira felt clicked with Grace at first sight.
"Take Judy to the police station. If she runs away again, you had better give me a resignation letter," Zach ordered coldly.
Instantly, Spike asked the bodyguard to drag Judy away. Grace had seen Elvira's photo and now felt that Elvira was much more beautiful in reality than in the photo. She is weak, but her weakness easily arouses sympathy from others, Grace thought. Charmed by Elvira, she now understood why her brother had been bewitched. 'She is charming when she is wounded. What will happen when she recovers?' she wondered.
"Mommy, can I hug you now?" Alice was waiting for an embrace from her mother.
"Of course, my dear. I love you!" Grace scooped up her daughter who was looking at her eagerly. She then kissed Alice again and again.
"Have you had breakfast? You must be hungry now. Get her share of breakfast ready." Elvira rushed Zach after the first question to Grace.
"She's quite capable. Don't worry about her. She won't starve herself to death." Zach continued to feed Elvira. He wasn't so attentive to Grace as he was to Elvira.
Elvira refused to take the food and nudged Zach to get the breakfast ready for Grace.
"Elvira, eat on. Zach is right. I can buy whatever I want to eat. Don't worry about me." Grace walked to the table and fed Alice.
"Why did you come back all of a sudden? Grandma called you serval times, but you refused to come back. What happened?" Zach was a bit angry at his heartless sister who had been away from home for so many years.
"I am busy. I goofed off to visit Elvira this time. Besides, how could I sit by when you couldn't capture a good-for-nothing? What if that bitch kidnapped my daughter again?" Grace snorted and then made a face at her brother.
"Why didn't you come back and protect your daughter by yourself if you are so capable? My wife risked her life to save your daughter. She is pregnant with twins!" Zach said proudly.
Grace's eyes widened in shock. 'I didn't know that. She risked her life to save Alice when she was pregnant. Out of question, she is a good person,' Grace thought.
"Elvira, are my nephews alright? Zach, how disappointing you are! You've been regressing all these years. How could you let Elvira encounter danger?" Grace complained of her brother again. Zach's face darkened. "Even the wise are not always free from error. I am not an omnipotent god."
"Okay, fine, you got a point." Grace looked at Elvira and said, "Elvira, congratulations that you're going to be a mother." "Thank you. Don't blame Zach. I was the cause of this mess. Judy is my stepsister." Elvira spoke up for Zach. Hearing Elvira, Grace waved her hand and said, "Your stepsister isn't so powerful. She is just a pawn. Speaking of which, my bad. I haven't found out the mastermind yet, and all I did was vent my anger on a nobody."
It surprised Elvira that both Zach and Grace shared the same opinion. It seemed she did have underestimated the real mastermind and overestimated Judy. Her body tensed up at the news of the powerful enemy against the Gilbert family. She

asked no questions because it was useless to do so
"Since you're here, take Alice home. Elvira need a good rest Zach began to chase the visitors away when he noticed that Elvira was a bit listless.
"To catch that bitch for you, I didn't sleep for 24 hours. Should you let me have breakfast before you kick me away? Grace looked at her inhumane brother bitterly. She wanted to give him a good beating
"Hurry up then Zach was anxious to let Elvira have a good sleep
"Are you my brother? So inhumane. Elvira, keep him on a leash okay? Grace stretched her hand to hit Zach with fake
anger.
Elvira felt warm and began to miss Marsh as she watched Zach aid Grace bicker.
Grace was sensible. After breakfast, she took Alice to visit her grandmother. It had been years since her last meeting with Tracy. For some reason, she failed to meet with her grandfather on his deathbed or attend his funeral, and that was a regret in her life. Elvira looked at Zach who became absentminded after Grace left, tugged at his clothes, and said, "You miss her very much. Why did you pick on her?"
"She takes a mile if I give her an inch. I won't spoil her." Zach helped Elvira lie down and tucked her in.
"Just tell her that you miss her. Don't talk tough. Say something nice next time," Elvira advised with a smile.
Zach wanted to say no, but Elvira's soft expression made him nod. "Alright, I will be nice. Sleep now. I will be here with you." "Keep an eye on Judy. Don't let her slip through the cracks again Elvira reminded worriedly.
"No, I won't let her escape this time." Zach rushed Elvira to sleep by holding her hand.
Sleepy, Elvira closed her eyes and soon fell asleep. Zach took out his phone and sent Spike a message to keep an eye on Judy personally.
Judy was taken to the police station and then got locked up. The police invited a doctor over for Judy's injuries and didn't pay attention to Judy's pregnancy.
In the dim cell, Judy recalled how Elvira was taken good care of in the ward, and her eyes turned bloodshot with hatred. Judy was clueless about the cause of her failure. Why did Elvira whose life was supposed to be a mess lead a happy life now? Judy was supposed to have a bright future, but she ended up with pregnancy, abandonment, and a jail sentence with nobody on her side.NôvelDrama.Org content.
This ending was completely unacceptable for Judy, but nobody cared about her feelings. What awaited her was the punishment, and the crimes she had committed would bring death to her.

Tracy was stunned when she saw her granddaughter who had been absent for years. She didn't believe her eyes till Grace in the distance shouted, "Grandma."-
Tears streamed down as Tracy sprang to her feet and quickly walked towards Grace. Grace quickened her paces towards Tracy. When Grace supported her grandmother by the arm, Tracy punched her without hesitation.
