Chapter 1 My husband , Antonio Kaufman , passed away .
His first love , Martha Landry , showed up with the will and demanded his inheritance .
My daughter , Joslyn Kaufman , told me shed stand up for me .
However , Antonios parents agreed on it .
They said , Shes pregnant with Antonios child .
I complied with them and took Joslyn abroad to start a new life .
Joslyn was upset that I didnt fight for my rights , but I actually had a plan .
Many people came to Antonios funeral .
Besides our friends and family members , there were his former colleagues and business associates .
Pregnant Martha came with a will .
The expressions on peoples faces were quite interesting .
Many kept glancing at me but stayed silent , waiting for my reaction .
Seemed like everyone was ready to watch a show .
Grace , I know Antonio and I were wrong .
But … Im pregnant , and I have to live for our baby ! The will was the last gift Antonio gave us .
You wont take it away , right ? Shut up ! You shameless gold digger ! You two hooked up 0.00 % OO O Chapter behind Moms back .
Yet , you even went here to ask for money ?! How dare you ! Joslyn scowled , her face red with .
anger, neck veins bulging .
Looked like she was ready to kill Martha .
Joslyn ! Why are you being so rude ? It must be Graces fault .
Barbra Owens , Antonios mother , spoke and shot a glare at me .
A terrible mother .
Grandma … This woman is a homewrecker , a mistress .
You should defend Mom .
How could you berate Mom and me for this outsider ? Do you take us as your family ? Joslyn wasnt quiet and obedient like usual .
She pushed me behind her back to protect me .
I was touched and felt ashamed .
Barbra was stunned by Joslyns retort .
She then looked furious .
How dare you criticize me ?! Were all your seniors .
You dont make the calls here .
Barbra looked at me and added , A girl is good for nothing ! Vance Kaufman , Antonios father , jumped in .
Keep quiet when were talking ! Ill beat you up if you dont obey ! Vance gave Joslyn a warning glance .
After looking at Martha , Vance turned to me .
Grace , youve been married to Antonio for 13 years .
We know you well .
And weve always seen you as family .
I hope you can think about whats best for us this time .
I listened and asked calmly , What do you want ? Well … Vance paused and said , Marthas carrying a boy .
Hell be the only hope of our family .
We just want the baby to be safe .
Now that Antonio is gone , Martha cant raise a child on her own .
Just give her Antonios inheritance .

But we really want that boy .
Joslyn cut in , Im also your grandchild ! Do you forget that ? Joslyn stared at Vance and Barbra , her eyes red rimmed and her voice trembling .
I knew Vance and Barbra never really cared about Joslyn , but I just realized they had always put on a show of being loving grandparents .
I didnt expect theyd say those hurtful words to her .
Hearing Joslyns words , Barbra dropped her facade .
I didnt say that .
But … youre a girl .
A girl cant be the heir of our family .
Antonio had treated you so well these years .
Its time that you do something for him .
You ungrateful brat ! Vance scolded Joslyn with a gloomy expression , Were talking to Grace .
Stay out of it ! Vance then turned to me .
Grace , for old times sake , please try to understand .
I looked at them and said indifferently , So , you knew about their affair ?
