She Got A Better Man

Chapter 175

Samuel raised his voice and said, "Mom!"

"Grandma, even if that's the case, why can an outsider come in while Dad and I, who both carry the Gilbert name, have to leave?" Mandy said, glaring at the old lady with clear dissatisfaction.

Tracy replied in a calm and firm tone, "You're wrong. Outsiders are those I don't see as family. Skylar is the daughter-in-law I acknowledge, the mother of my legitimate grandson, and the maternal grandmother of my great-grandchild. She will always be a part of the Gilbert family. As for you and your father? I don't recognize either of you and never will."

Tracy's response wasn't out of anger. It was to make her stance clear once and for all. She wanted Samuel and Mandy to understand there was absolutely no chance of them being welcomed back into the family.

Elvira sighed inwardly. She felt Tracy was wasting her breath. People like them would never give up, not out of the love for the Gilbert family but because of the enormous wealth at stake.

Elvira was sure they weren't incapable of understanding Tracy's words, but they simply chose to ignore them, hoping that if they persisted, they could eventually claim their share of the fortune.

"Mom, do you have to do this? I'm your son, after all. Skylar, do you really want to see our family fall apart because of you?" Samuel turned to Skylar and questioned her.

Skylar said in disdain, "Hold it right there. The Gilbert family isn't falling apart. Everyone who matters is still here. You're the one who should get lost, and you brought that on yourself."

"Ms. Hughes, you already divorced my dad. Why are you still clinging to our family? Don't you feel ashamed?" Mandy sneered, glaring at Skylar with contempt.

Elvira was infuriated by Mandy's expression and words. She wanted to march over and slap the smugness off her face, but Skylar held her back, signaling her to stay calm.

"Get out! All of you, get out! Must I call someone to throw you out before you get the message? Fine! Someone, bring the bodyguards in and throw these two out of my house right now! Tracy lost her temper instantly after hearing Mandy's words. Realizing that reasoning with them was useless, she decided to stop talking and kick them out instead.

Elvira, having grown up in a complicated family, knew all too well the lengths people like Mandy and her mother could go to when their interests were threatened. "Yes, Mrs. Gilbert, I understand." Anna's heart sank. If it weren't for Elvira's reminder, she might have assumed those people still needed Tracy's support to come back to the Gilbert family and wouldn't dare harm her. But now it
