She Got A Better Man

Chapter

Elvira felt that Leonard had changed quite a bit recently, but this wasn't the time to discuss it, so she didn't ask any questions.

Leonard dropped off something and left right away, not staying long. Perhaps he felt awkward facing Zach, uncomfortable with his own position in the family.

This self-awareness of Leonard made Elvira feel less repelled by him.

A week later, Elvira had mostly recovered and returned home to recuperate.

During this time, Zach had been by her side constantly, taking care of her every need. She barely had to walk anywhere herself, as Zach carried her wherever she needed to go.

Tracy hadn't seen Elvira during this week and felt deeply uneasy. She always felt something bad would happen. She dreamed every night of Elvira covered in blood, scaring her so much that she didn't dare to sleep. Knowing that her grandson and his wif

Grace noticed her grandmother's condition and was heartbroken. She insisted on taking Tracy to the hospital, but Tracy refused, knowing it was all caused by her worry. No medicine would work unless she saw Elvira again.

When Zach and Elvira heard that Tracy was unwell, Elvira immediately said she wanted to visit Tracy, despite her leg injury

"You're still not fully healed. I'll push you in a wheelchair and say you've been experiencing severe morning sickness lately. If Grandma finds out about your injury, she'll worry even more," Zach suggested.

After some thought, Elvira agreed. Her wound was still painful, and she feared her expression might give her away, making Tracy even more anxious. Pretending to have morning sickness seemed like a reasonable explanation for her sickly face. When the two arrived at the Gilbert mansion, Tracy was so shocked to see Elvira in a wheelchair that she stood up immediately. Worried, she walked quickly toward her and asked, "Elvira, what's wrong? Are you hurt?"

"Tracy, don't worry. I'm not injured. I've just been experiencing severe morning sickness lately. I throw up everything I ea and now I have no energy at all. That's why I've been using a wheelchair," Elvira explained, following Zach's plan. Hearing this, Tracy finally felt more at ease, though she still looked concerned. "Morning sickness can be so tough! If you're throwing up everything, aren't you missing out on all the nutrients? That's not good for you or the baby!" "Sometimes I feel fine after eating, but other times I can't keep anything down. There are moments when I don't want to eat at all because I'm afraid I'll throw up," Elvira said, trying to reassure Tracy and prevent her from worrying too much. "Today, I will cook for you. I guarantee you won't throw it up!" Tracy said as she headed to the kitchen.

And if you can't, I'll have meals sent to you," Tracy said, visibly delighted. Her spirits lifted, and she looked much healthier as if she would soon fully recover.
