After being reborn I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179

Tracy looked like she wanted to kill me, and it sent a chill down my spine. She abys put on that noble and elegant art, but deep down and calculating

“Mrs. Holcomb, let’s talk,” Tracy said, her tone losing all its unnal warmth.

I glanced around at the crowd, clearly waiting for some drama, and just shis ped. “Sorry, I’ve got lunch plans with a friend. Can’t make it.”

Tracy just seered at me. “What? Are you afraid to talk

Her attempt to provoke me didn’t bother me at all. “Why would I be? An honest heart sleeps sound through midnight knacks”

Tracy’s face darkened instantly. She turned and said, “Conference Room Dre now.”

She was pregnant, and now she wanted to meet the somewhere with no witnesses. If the accidentally fell and had a miscarriage, there’d be no way to

clear my name.

No way I was going with her. She was obviously trying to set me up.

“Sorry, really don’t have time,” I said, turning to head back to my office.

Seeing I wasn’t going to play along, Tracy had no choice but to head back to her office and call me from her landine.

“Mrs. Holcomb, you’re told Jared I’m pregnant, right? You’re absolutely vicious” Tracy said, her voice practically shaking with rage.

Itered innocence. “You’re pregnant? Congrats. So, who’s the father? Is it Jared?”

“You know damn well who it is,” Tracy snapped, even more furious.

“i get it. Pregnancy y hormones mess with your mood. But Tracy, this baby isn’t even my husband’s, so why are you so–obsessed with making trouble for me?” I shot back, not in the mood for her games.

Tracy took a deep breath. “You’re really playing hardball Guess I really misjudged you.”

“Someone as full of themselves as you probably don’t think anyone’s worth your time. Tracy, let me guess. You wanted Jared to step up and claim this baby, swap the lead in your drama, and I crashed your show halfway through

“That’s why you’re so pissed, right?” Honestly, looking at how things went down, I bet in my previous life, Jared got played by Tracy, too. What a poor

dude.

Tracy was practically fuming on the other end, her breathing all ragged. Guess I nailed it,

“Mrs. Holcomb, do you really think everyone’s as sneaky and underhanded as you? I could sue you for sending someone to follow me, Tracy said, trying to change the subject.

“Sue me? Got any proof?” I raised an eyebrow

Tracy clammed up. It

It seemed that she really didn’t have anything on me.

“Don’t get too cocky. The fact is, Jared doesn’t love you. Let’s see how long you can keep smiling Tracy said, clearly pissed off, before hanging up on me,

Tactually felt pretty good. Tracy’s dirty trick had totally flopped.

At lunch, I treated Melissa to a meal and had her check out the contract for me. She raised an eyebrow and grinned. “The contract looks fine, but come on your husband’s giving you a 1–million dollar salary?

“I’m seriously jealous. Even a senior manager would be lucky to get that, and you’re just a total newble. Guess it really pays to have the right people

backing you up!

“Let’s not get into that,” I said with a faint smile. “Jared’s been really not of hit mind lately I want a divorce, but he won’t go se to it.”

Melissa just gave me a knowing look. “Of course, For nor thing, it’s not easy to find someone as beautiful as you

“And besides, if he divorces you, it could impact his company’s stock price. He has to be super careful about that kind of thing
