Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 127

Mrs. King stood up and held Gracie's hand. Then she said, "We should leave. It looks like he is way out of your league. We should stop letting ourselves get humiliated here. "

Gracie took Mrs. King‘s hand and begged, "Mom, Tassach is acting like this because we had a little fight. Please don't be mad at him. He said that because he was too angry."

Mrs. King obviously didn't believe it.

"Really?"

Gracie nodded.

Mrs. King sat down again and said, "Tassach, you two can fight with each other, but you shouldn't say that you wanted to cancel the engagement. I've discussed it with your parents and we've decided for you. We've even invited some of our friends. All we need is the engagement party."

Tassach looked at Mrs. Conduibh and said, "Mom, what is she talking about?"

Mrs. Conduibh looked indecisive.

Tassach stood up and said, "Please excuse me. I'm going upstairs now. You should have some respect for me in the future. You should really listen to me if you don't want this getting uglier."

Mrs. Conduibh blocked his way and said, "You're an adult now. Stop being so childish."

Tassach laughed angrily.

His parents plotted against him with other people and tried to manipulate his marriage. Now there were accusing him of being childish.

"Mom, I can forgive you for what you've done before, but you should stay away from my marriage and have some respect for your son. Or I'll leave you and never come back.

Mrs. Conduibh raised her hand and slapped him. Then she cried, "You're breaking my heart! I did all this for you! Why can't you feel my feeling as your mother?"

Tassach looked at Mrs. Conduibh calmly with his hands covering his face. He said, "I know you did this for me, but it's too much for me to take."

Mrs. Conduibh opened her mouth. Her hands were trembling. There were lots of things she wanted to argue, but at last, she only let out one sentence. "I didn't mean to slap you. Does it hurt?"

Tassach shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I thought you would no longer intervene in my marriage after that incident."

Mrs. Conduibh was trembling all over because of anger and fear. She shuddered and said, "Son, I did this because I love you."

Tassach looked at Mrs. Conduibh with a complicated expression in his eyes.

"Mom, I'll go upstairs to see Grandpa." Tassach bypassed Mrs. Conduibh and went upstairs without looking back.

Mrs. Conduibh raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. She braced herself up and said to Mrs. King, "Sorry to let you see this, and please accept my apology for what happened today."

Mrs. King frowned and said, "I don't think Tassach is willing to be with Gracie."

Mrs. Conduibh smiled and said, "You don't know that! Tassach was just shying out. I'll talk to him later. They'll be engaged soon. I think they will make it no matter how many contradictions they have to settle."

Mrs. King flicked the invisible dust on her shoulder and said, "We've known each other for nearly three decades. Although my family has stayed abroad for all these years, our friendship hasn't faded at all... That was why I felt so disappointed that you just humiliated us tremendously. You Obviously haven't told your son about the marriage yet."

Mrs. Conduibh forced a smile and said, "OK, it's my mistake, but look at Gracie! She's so beautiful and sweet! I bet Tassach will fall in love with her someday! What? Shouldn't you have some confidence in your daughter?"

Every parent liked their children to be praised, and Mrs. King was so happy as if the compliment is for her.

"You're right, my daughter's only flaw is that she's just too perfect. She's so excellent and has so many pursuers, but ever since she saw Tassach's photo, she has been urging us to come back. She said that Tassach was her prince charming. I brought her back from broad because of that. You've really disappointed me today."

Mrs. Conduibh tried to calm her down. "Don't worry. I promise you that Gracie will be my daughter-in-law."

"I'm so relieved to hear you say that," Mrs. King said, "I think Tassach is unhappy just because we didn't inform him of this in advance. Maybe we should leave and come by another day when he cools down."

"Fine, I'll walk you out then."

Mrs. Conduibh walked the three people to the door and said to Gracie kindly, "Gracie, don't overthink about it. You're a nice girl, it will be a great honor for Tassach if you want to marry him."

Gracie smiled gently and replied, "I know we're meant to be a couple. He had someone in his heart, but I believe that's just temporary. He will eventually find me attractive. We still have a long way to go. I can wait."

Mrs. Conduibh was more than satisfied. "Gracie, that is why I like you so much. You're so sensible and considerate. You have to be my daughter-in-law. I won't accept other people."

Gracie was proud when she heard it. She said, "I'm glad you said that. Please stay."

"I'll see you very soon," Mrs. Conduibh smiled to Gracie and added, "And you should go shopping with me at weekends. I saw a nice pair of shoes the other day and I thought they would look gorgeous on you. You should have a try. I'll buy it for you as a gift if it fits."

Gracie hugged Mrs. Conduibh happily and said, "I like you, and I can't wait to go shop with you. I wish you could be my mother-in-law now."

Those words made Mrs. Conduibh grin from ear to ear.

"My sweet girl, I want you to be my daughter-in-law."

Gracie said lots of sweet things and then left with her parents.

Mrs. Conduibh's face became sullen as soon as their car roared past and darted away.
