Falling For My Contractual Wife
Chapter 248

"Hello there," Carson teased Austin lovingly.

Austin had never seen Carson before and was curiously looking at him with her big eyes. "Tsk, tsk." Carson clicked his tongue at Austin.

Grace could not help but laugh. "Carson, are you treating my daughter like a puppy?"

"Grace, she's smiling at me! She's smiling! Austin, I'm your uncle. Call me uncle."

Carson said each word slowly and deliberately, "Uncle, Uncle."

"What are you thinking? She's only a month old. She can't talk."

"Then she must have understood what I was saying..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Carson looked at the child in his hand and was at a loss. "Grace, you need to open the door."

Grace smiled and shook her head. She got up and went to open the door.

The door opened to reveal a familiar face. Grace's heart sank.

Outside the door, Daisy saw Grace and gasped as if she had seen a ghost. "You...you, why are you here? Are you a human or a ghost!"

Carson walked over with the child in his arms. "Mom?"

Daisy looked at Carson in shock, then at Grace. "You, you're not dead?"

Grace pursed her lips. Initially, she did not intend to let Daisy know about the child so quickly. However, she did not expect to bump into Grace right when she moved in.

"Yes, I'm not dead. Did you really want me to die?"

"I...Brian was looking for you everywhere. If I knew that you weren't dead, I would have told him this news long ago. I could have taken the opportunity to blackmail him," Daisy replied.

"What did you say?" Grace looked at her coldly. She knew that Daisy would do this, so she had repeatedly instructed Carson not to tell Daisy her whereabouts.

Carson looked at Grace and said to Daisy, "Come in."

Daisy narrowed her eyes when she saw Carson's reaction. "Carson, you already knew that she wasn't dead, right?"

Carson's eyes darkened as he remained silent.

Daisy threw her bag on the sofa and looked at the child in his arms. "Does Brian know that this child has been born?" "Yes."

Daisy frowned. "He knew about the child and just let the both of you wander around outside?"

"Yes, he's about to marry Louise. To him, my child would only be a stumbling block. There was no way Brian would acknowledge her."

Daisy's tone was a little intense as she said, "That won't do! This is his child! Even if he doesn't acknowledge her, he has to pay child support! A person like him has to pay at least twenty thousand dollars a month!"

Grace did not expect that even though she had already presented the information as such, Daisy still would not give up on the idea of using Grace's child to extort money.

Just as she was about to say something, she heard Carson say, "Mom! That's enough! When you heard that something had happened to Grace, you ran to Brian and asked for 160 thousand dollars! Now, you still want to use the child to ask for money! Can't you tell that Grace doesn't want to have anything to do with that man at all?"

Daisy glared at him. "Shut up! She's a good-for-nothing! Even you are good for nothing!"

When Grace heard their conversation, she looked at Daisy in disbelief. "Is what Carson said true? You went to Brian to ask for 160 thousand dollars?"

"What's wrong? Do you think I shouldn't have done that? 160 thousand dollars is still way less than what we deserve. Tell you what, I'll go replace him tomorrow to ask for child support!"

Grace roared, "Daisy! Are you trying to singlehandedly destroy our family?"

Daisy was stunned by Grace's outburst.

Austin was also frightened by the sudden outburst and started crying.

"Don't you remember what happened the last time you went to the Francis Villa?"
