Falling for My Contractual Wife

Carson lowered his head and said guiltily, "Grace, I've let you down."

"What happened?"

"You entrusted Austin to me, but I didn't do a good job of protecting her... If only Austin was still here..."

Grace pursed her lips. "It's not your fault. Louise is determined to harm my child. No matter who I entrust her to, she still won't be able to escape her wrath. At that time, I trusted you the most. I would be even more worried if I trusted her with someone else, so I won't blame you."

"Alright! Don't be so grim. I'm back safe and sound. By the way, what are we having for lunch today?"

Daisy pursed her lips and said, "Aren't you successful now? You've become your brother's boss. You're so rich. Why didn't you think of inviting us to a restaurant?"

Frederick elbowed her hard. "What are you talking about!"

"Grace, don't take your mother's words to heart. Just tell us what you want to eat and get your mother to make it for you."

Daisy said unhappily, "Does your Dad think I'm a servant?"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Mom, let's go out for lunch today and buy some ingredients after lunch. I'll cook tonight, okay?" Daisy then said, "That's more like it."

Frederick glared at her.

At noon, the family ate outside. Daisy chose the most upscale restaurant and tried her best to order the most expensive dishes.

Carson and Frederick were both trying to stop her, but Grace said without much care, "We can still afford to have such meals occasionally."

The meal cost Grace close to twenty thousand dollars.

Daisy was happy after eating, so she was polite to Grace. When they were returning, she was in the front passenger seat and she asked, "Now that you're back, you should get back together with Brian!" The smile on Grace's face froze. She looked straight ahead and said coldly, "Impossible."

Daisy saw her cold attitude and said anxiously, "Why not? Look, Louise is also dead now. You're the best candidate for him. In the past, you had no money or power. It's normal for him to look down on you. Now that you're rich, how are you not worthy of him?"

Grace sighed and said, "Mom, I'm really not as rich as you think."

Her company had just started. There were many small companies like hers in Capern City. It was only because she had accumulated. some fame in Nelson's company that her career was smooth sailing after she returned.

"Carson is working for you. How can you not have money?"noveldrama

Grace shut up. She did not want to argue with her anymore.

Frederick scolded her again then did she shut up.

When they got home, Carson immediately went to clean up Grace's room. They lived in a 3-bedroom flat. Some random items were still piled up in the other room Daisy frowned and said, "That room will be for my grandson in the future."

Frederick clicked his tongue and said, "It's not even set in stone yet. You think your son can't even afford a home when he's married? Which girl is willing to live with such a`

talkative mother-in-law like you?"

"I..." Daisy was rendered speechless.

Grace could not help but chuckle and say, "I bought an apartment myself. I won't stay here for long. I'll only come back once in a while."

Daisy snorted.

Grace turned around and went to wash the vegetables and cook.

She spent her entire weekend with the Sherman family.

Grace had not been back for the project she was doing at the Francis Group. She was trying her best to avoid Brian. She didn't want anything to do with him.
