She Got A Better Man

Chapter 277 Chapter 277

Samuel said, "Grace, you've misunderstood me. I haven't seen you in many years, and I truly want to make up for my mistakes. Besides, I've been with Helen for more than ten years now, and your brothers and sisters have grown up." "Wouldn't it be nice if we were a happy family together?" His eyes were filled with hope as he looked at his daughter.

Grace retorted, "What are you thinking? You don't want to divorce the mistress and want to bring your whole family back into the Gilbert family? Not a chance. Listen, as long as Zach and I are here, you'll never set foot in the Gilbert family!" She continued, "I'll thank you for making me, Zach, and Mom so strong back then. I won't let you and your family of

ockroaches into our family!" She slammed the coffee cup down before him. "Here's a coffee for you. From now on, stay out of my sight!"

She got up and walked away.

"Grace, I'm your father! Is this how you treat the one who gave you life?" Samuel said angrily.

Their voices were loud enough to attract the attention of people around them. Grace smiled and said, "You're still the father of those three kids your mistress had! I can't tolerate people like you." She added, "Here's the deal. Your mistress's family or mine, you can only choose one. You can't get both!"

Grace's words were clear and sharp. Her scumbag father had a mistress and had children with her, while she was the child of his first marriage. Now this man wanted to keep all the kids.

The people around them looked at Samuel with disdain. They thought he was truly a scumbag.

Samuel's face turned red with shame. He didn't even take the coffee and left in embarrassment. They parted ways without a word, leaving through different exits.

Helen called Samuel to ask how things went, advising him not to have any conflict with Grace. After all, Grace was still his biological daughter, and it was important to maintain a good relationship. She also thought it might be easier to get into the Gilbert family through Grace since she was a girl and would likely be less firm in her stance.

Helen regretted not advising Mandy to avoid conflict with Grace earlier.

Samuel, still angry, said, "She has changed. She's not soft and gentle like when she was younger. Now she speaks like a knife, her heart is as hard as stone."

"That can't be. I remember Grace was so soft and sweet when she was little. How did she become like this? Is she angry at you? You need to apologize to her. Girls are soft-hearted," Helen advised. "How would I know how she turned out like this?" Samuel was frustrated too.

Helen said, "I'll have Mandy go apologize to her. After all, they're sisters. No sister should hold a grudge. Then you can say something nice to Grace, and she'll forgive you."

She added, "As the elder, you should be magnanimous, don't argue with the younger generation." She acted considerate and understanding, which made Samuel feel better.

"You're the most thoughtful and understanding. Why can't my mother accept you? She's getting more stubborn the older she gets!" Samuel sighed, getting angry again when he thought of Tracy.

"Your mother has some misunderstandings about me, but don't worry, No matter what she thinks, I'll always be respected her. Your mother is my real mother," Helen said sincerely.

The more Samuel listened, the more he felt that his mother was too stubborn and narrow-minded, while Helen was very understanding.

"And then there's Skylar, she's been divorced from me for so many years, yet she still shamelessly stays at my hound! I'm telling you, my mother's refusal to accept me has a lot to do with her," Samuel vented angrily,

"Don't be too harsh. She's not having an easy time either. She must have done a lot for her kids. Go home first, and let me give you a massage to help you relax," Helen said, her tone considerate as she tried to calm him down. After talking with Helen, Samuel felt a little lighter and was less angry at his daughter.

After hanging up the phone, Helen called Mandy over. Mandy sat down and asked, "Mom, what's the matter?

"Go apologize to Grace," Helen instructed.

Mandy was immediately enraged. "Mom, it was Grace who bullied me! She humiliated me in front of so many people, and now you want me to apologize? Are you my real mother?"

"When are you going to use your brain? How could I give birth to such a brainless daughter?" Helen snapped, poking Mandy on the forehead in frustration.

"I'm not going!" Mandy said defiantly. The thought of apologizing to Grace was worse than death to her.

"If you don't, then no allowance for you," Helen coldly replied, leaning back.

"Mom!" Mandy nearly exploded. Her allowance wasn't much, just 12 thousand dollars a month, and it wasn't even enough for her. Now, her mother wanted to take that away too.

"Mandy, you're not a child anymore, you should understand what's important for our family. What's the most important thing for us?" Helen asked seriously.

"Make more money from the Gilbert family, what else?" Mandy said irritably.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Helen snapped, about gaining the Gilbert family's recognition! You really don't think, do you? With just this little money, we're nothing."

She continued, "But if we gain recognition from the Gilbert family, you three will be the rightful heirs, and you could each get billions of dollars! Stop wasting time on those useless romance novels and start thinking about the family fortune!"

Mandy's eyes widened at the mention of billions of dollars. Her mother had never told her about this before, and now it made sense why Helen was so eager to get into the good graces of Tracy.

She had always

"Mom, is this

o down on it, but now she realized just how much benefit there was in returning to the Gilbert family.

Can we get so much?" Mandy asked eagerly, her face full of excitement.

"The key is for your grandma to acknowledge us. Once she's gone, when the inheritance is split, you three siblings will each get a share. I don't think she has many years left. Time is running out for us," Helen said, a trace of exhaustion in her yoice. Gary was too impulsive and reckless, while Leonard was indifferent and didn't care about the family business. He only wanted to stay away from it all. And Mandy was just a fool, wasting her time reading love stories.

Helen was the only one who had been focused on finding a way for their family to be accepted by the Gilbert family and gain access to the billions of dollars.

Mandy said, "Mom, I'll go apologize to Grace. We'll start with her. Don't underestimate me. I've read those novels, and they have plenty of stories about family rivalries."

She continued, "If you had told me this earlier, I would've my abilities to get us back into the Gilbert family!" Her face lit up with excitement.
