Chapter 50 In her room , Elaine continued her conversation with the Book Elf .
I know this is just a book , she said , her tone firm .
But this is also my life .
I have feelings , I experience joy and sorrow , anger and grief .
Im not some mindless character following a scripted plot .
This time around , I just want to live freely .
My greatest wish is for Kingsley to find happiness .
He died so miserably for me in our last life , and in this one , he deserves every bit of redemption The Book Elf stared at Elaine as if beginning to understand something .
In this life , the only unwavering light in Elaines heart was Kingsley , the man who had once died for her .
Without bringing up forgiveness again , the Book Elf played back the scene of Tucker causing a ruckus at the Yeats family home .
Flame watched the footage and frowned .
Tuckers being ridiculous , she said .
Why tell the Yeats family that Im never coming back ! What if I need 10 return later to progress the main storyline ? Wouldnt that make me look bad ? Annoyed , she clicked her tongue .
Blue , standing nearby , rolled his eyes dramatically .
Didnt you swear up and down that you were cutting ties with them ? That you wanted to go back to being strangers with your brothers ? If thats what you declared , then Tuckers words are basically the truth .
You dont want any ties with the Yeats family , so what difference does it make ? Tuckers got a point , doesnt he ? Elaine nodded thoughtfully .
Youre right .
Moments later , her phone rang .
It was Tracy Elaine , come home tomorrow , Tracy said curly Flaine raised an eyebrow , surprised by the sudden request , Why ? she asked lazily , Even if she did go back , it would only be to advance the plot not to take any abuse .
Her indifferent tone masle Tracys temper flare .
On the other end of the line .
Tracys voice rose , sharp with anger .
Elaine , when I tell you to come home , you come home Why are you asking so many questions ? Is this how you talk to your biological mother ? You ungrateful little wretch ! If it werent for Elaine , none of todays chans would have happened , Hearing Tracy use her as a scapegoat yet again , Elaines expression darkened .
But the bright , dazzling smile that appeared on her face was more unsettling than reassuring it was the smile of someone unhinged My biological mother ! Ms.
Cash , yes , you gave birth to me , but did you ever raise me ! Im honestly amazed you have the audacity to bring up the term biological mother .
Tell me , do other mothers show more care for their adopted daughters while treating their own flesh and blood like Her words , though delivered in a tone as sweet as honey , were laced with venom .
Elaine , Tracy hissed , her temples throbbing with anger .
Her voice turned softer , almost pleading .
Why do you insist on comparing yourself to Bunca ? She may not be my own , but shes been by my side for sixteen years .
Of course , I care for her .
Flaine let out a cold laugh Exactly .
Shes your precious daughter .

Who you choose to care about is none of my business .
But if you dont like me as your daughter , rest assured , I dont like you as my mother either .
Lets call it even , shall we ? You stick with your perfect daughter , and Ill make sure to steer clear of you.
That way , neither of us has to feel disgusted Youve got your beloved daughter to teach , so why dont you focus on her and stop trying to boss me around ? Elaines voice was devoid of emotion , her words cutting like a blade .
She had stopped caring about anyones opinion , least of all Tracys , In the past , Tracys approval had mattered to her .
But now ! Never again .
Elaines calm and unbothered demeanor left Tracy seething with rage , her chest heaving with the effort to keep herself composed .
But the thought of Ingram and the charity gala forced her to rein in her temper .
Taking a deep breath , she regained her usual poise as the matriarch of a wealthy family Your sister was recently invited to the Boynton Ingram estate , Tracy began , her voice steady , though her emphasis on Ingrams name hinted at 1/2 Bx D Dreams Read Romance .

When she came back , Ingram mentioned you .
you .
He personally asked for you to attend the charity gala Tracys tone was dripping with pride , as if Ingrams acknowledgment of Banca and by extension , Elaine was a budge of honor .
Elaine , however , raised an eyebrow at the mention of Boynton Ingram .
She hadnt expected hing to extend an invitation to her .
After all , she had never expressed any interest in mingling with high society , especially after falling out with the Yeats Family , Ingram knew her well enough to understand that she avoided grand social events to let Banca shine as the official Yeats heir .
He had never pushed her on it , though hed always seemed regretful of her decisions .
But this time , he had specifically asked for her presence .
Tracy mistook Flaines silence for intimidation .
Smiling to herself , she added , Ingram holds Bianca in high regard .
Its only because of her that he even thought to mention you Elaine felt her patience wane .
Did Tracy have some kind of brain malfunction ? She and Ingram were old acquaintances she didnt need Bianca to uitroduce her .
Still , Elaine couldnt be bothered to argue .
She simply said .
Got it , and hung up .
Tracy stared at her phone , fuming over the abrupt end to the call .
Ella , who had been standing nearby , frowned .
Well Did she agree to come back ? Tthink so .
Tracy replied reluctantly .
Ella nodded .
Biancas gown for the gala was ruined by Tucker .
We need to find her a new one immediately .
She has to outshine everyone else at the event Biancas beauty , celebrated by the media as unparalleled , was her greatest asset .
But even the most stunning appearance needed the perfect attire to complement it .
Tracy looked troubled .
With so little time , where are we going to find the right gown for her ? The Scott family , Ella said , her eyes gleaming .
Thisure Finley will be more than willing to help .
Ellas intentions were clear she was trying to matchmake Bianca and Finley , hoping to secure a connection to Boyntons elite .
Tracy understood immediately and nodded .
Ill handle it.
One more thing .
Ella added , stopping Tracy in her tracks .
Get an identical gown for Elaine , too .
Identical gowns .
Someone was bound to end up embarrassed .
And Ella was certain .
It wouldnt be Blanca .
