She Got A Better Man

Chapter 271



"You finally found the way to come home! Do you still remember me? You heartless girl! Do you want me to die with regret?" Angry and sad. Tracy missed her granddaughter very much..

Red-eyed, Grace held back her tears and hugged Tracy. "Granda, I'm back. I know that you love me. You love me unconditionally, Grandma, I miss you so much."

Tracy hugged Grace tightly. Her feelings towards Grace were complicated. She was mad at the heartless Grace who had been away for years, and she felt sorry for Grace whom she had brought up. "Mrs. Gilbert, aren't you happy that Missy is back? Sit down for good talk." Anna advised Tracy as tears flowed down her face.

"Anna, you're as thoughtful as ever," Grace greeted with a smile.

"Miss, what a great change in you! You became pretty. If we ran into each other somewhere else, I wouldn't think you are Miss Gilbert," Anna lamented. Grace now came back as a mother and she was still a child when she was taken away. Angry, Tracy refused to talk to Grace or let go of Grace's hand. Grace had to coax and plead until Tracy got softened.

"Grandma, I bought you a lot of gifts. Look, do you like them? Anna, I prepared your share too." Grace brought a lot of good things over and opened the gift boxes for Tracy one by one.

Deep down, Tracy loved Grace. Her anger resulted from Grace's long absence, and it quickly dissipated before Grace's sweet talk. She didn't waste her time on the negative emotions anymore, so a happy reunion began.

Skylar came for the news of her daughter's return. Tears of excitement welled up in her eyes when she saw Grace. After years of separation, she gave her daughter a tight embrace.

"Didn't you two live together? Why are you so excited?" Tracy asked with suspicion.

"Oh, because I haven't seen her for months. I miss her," Skylar said as she wiped her tears.

"Grandma, all these years, I miss the roast turkey you make very much. Its fragrance always makes me drool in my dreams." Grace quickly changed the topic.

"Anna, get the turkey ready. I'll make one for Grace." Without hesitation, Tracy left an instruction to Anna.

"Mom, I like the fried fish you cook." Grace looked at her mother with expectation.

"Alright, I will make some for you. Anna, please buy me a fish, and I will deal with it myself." Skylar told Anna what she needed.

"It is so nice to be home. Grandma and Mom are the best!" Grace complimented.

"You know that, so don't leave us again. Look at you, how skinny You were chubby. Stay, and I will make you a lot of good dishes." Tracy didn't want to let go of Grace's hand at all.

"I had baby fat, Grandma. I am not skinny. Look, my muscles!" Grace showed off the muscles on

her arm.

"No. You need more food. Your sister-in-law is thin too. Dieting will backlash when you are old. It will be too late when the time comes." Tracy looked at Grace with worry as tears welled up in her eyes again. Instantly, Grace soothed Tracy with sweet words she was good at A smile soon brightened the face of Tracy, and she could see nobody but Grace in her eyes now.

Watching Grace soothe Tracy, Alice felt helpless as she thought, Look, Mommy got the knack. Nobody can be mad at her.'

"I will invite Zach and his wife over for lunch. It is rare to have you at home. Zach must miss you too. It will be a good chance for you to meet with his wife. Tracy took out her phone to call Zach. Grace wanted to stop Tracy but decided to leave the trouble to Zach after second thoughts. The mess would be exposed if she stopped Tracy now.

Tracy might be frightened to pass out if she learned that the pregnant Elvira was in the hospital for the gunshot wound.

Over the phone, Tracy invited Zach and Elvira over for lunch. Zach calmly explained that he was on a trip with Elvira and would return in one week. "Traveling? Do you forget that Elvira is pregnant? What if something happens?" Tracy panicked.

Skylar asked in confusion, "Are they traveling? Now?"

"Elvira wants some fresh air by the sea, so I took her out. Don't worry. I'll take good care of her." Zach used a white lie to spare Tracy and Skylar from the distress of the fact that Elvira was wounded. "Put Elvira on the phone!" Tracy was a little angry. How could Elvira go on a long trip now? The pregnant were easily tired.

"She is asleep because she stayed up for a project last night. I will let her ring you after she wakes up." Zach didn't want to wake up Elvira who was sound asleep.

"What? You let her stay up late? Zach, what is wrong with you? You are so unreliable." Tracy flared up at the news that Zach let the pregnant stay up late for work.

"My bad, Grandma. I am sorry. There will be no work but rest and fun, and I will take good care of Elvira. You have my word," Zach swore.

Tracy repeated her advice to Zach before she hung up the phone

"Grace, Zach took Elvira away for a trip and may be back in one week. It's not that they don't want to meet with you." Tracy made an explanation for fear that Grace would have a problem with Elvira.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"It is alright. There will be chances to see them because I plan to stay here for long. Grandma, why don't you cook the turkey now? I'm starved." Grace tried to distract Tracy with the preparation of lunch.

Hearing that Grace was hungry, Tracy quickly went to the kitchen and began her preparation. Grace then looked at Alice,

mother!" whose gaze

contained disdain, and pinched Alice's nose. "What is that look? How dare you despise your

"Mommy, who is my father?" Alice looked at Grace in confusion. How would Grace fool Alice after the lie that Zach was Alice's father got exposed?

"What? Your father is your uncle. Your uncle is your father. Don't you like your uncle? Don't you like him to be your father? Well, your grandmother needs my help. I will have to go now." Grace ran away for fear that Alice would pester her for the truth. Grace's escapism made Alice sigh helplessly. It seemed Alice would have to find her father herself because her unreliable mother refused to tell the truth.
