After being reborn, I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter

Chapter 72

Those two days were the weekend. Besides supervising the site at Harmonia Hotel, I went out for dinner with Melissa. Then Sally called and asked the three of us to eat together.

That afternoon, Yvonne stayed at Sally’s. When she was dropped off at night, she carried a big bag of toys, including some cute silver jewelry. As soon as Yvonne got home, she grabbed scissors and sat in her room stringing beads.

I knew she was making a gift for Tracy. She was focused on it. When I brought her some fruit, Yvonne seemed a little guilty

and hid it at first.

Unexpectedly, the beads she was stringing spilled all over the floor halfway through. She shouted in frustration, “It’s your fault, Mom, you’re distracting me from making my bracelet!”

Then she knelt and crawled around picking up beads one by one. I sat nearby, popped a cherry tomato in my mouth, and asked, “Who’s this for? You’re working so hard.”

“None of your business,” Yvonne replied, not telling the truth, and quickly told me, “Mom, please go away. Don’t bother me.”

I had no choice but to leave her room. Inside, it felt like someone stabbed me in the heart. I didn’t understand why Yvonne liked Tracy so much, but resented me as her mother.

‘I must have messed up somewhere. Or maybe that’s just how people are–loving the distant but resenting the close,‘ I thought.

Tracy flattered her easily, and Yvonne was happy. I cared for her day and night and managed her life, but I became the person she hated.

Late at night, I lay in bed when my period suddenly started. I went to the bathroom to handle it. When I came out, Jared was sitting on the other side of the bed.
