If that happened, her grandmother would definitely be very sad. She didn’t dare to gamble, and she couldn’t even bear to think how disappointed her grandmother would be.
Thinking of this, Tracy tugged on Sean’s arm and said in a negotiating tone, “I’m serious, Sean. We can set it according to your schedule. We’ll have the meal whenever you have time. I just don’t want you to be held up by something and have it disappoint my grandmother. My grandmother broke her leg and it’s very inconvenient for her to get around. I don’t want her to make a wasted trip.”
She didn’t want to see the disappointment in her grandmother’s eyes, nor did she want the Xander family to get involved in her and Sean’s business. That was why she could only ask her grandmother out for a meal.
Hearing Tracy’s words, Sean seemed to think of something, and his face immediately darkened. “Tracy, people are different. You can’t just assume all men are like that just because of how Chandler treated you. That’s unfair to others. It also makes it seem like you’re not over your ex-husband and still have lingering feelings.”
Tracy was stunned for a few seconds, then instinctively shook her head and denied it. “Don’t misunderstand. I didn’t mean that. I’m just afraid of disappointing my grandmother. There’s no other meaning. And, I have no lingering feelings for Chandler. Don’t get
the wrong idea.”
After seeing Chandler’s heartlessness so many times, if she still held onto any fantasies about him, she would have to be truly pathetic.
She was just afraid of getting her hopes up too high, only to be met with disappointment. She herself didn’t matter; she was just afraid of her grandmother making the trip for nothing, and then feeling sad for her.
In this world, besides Morgan’s family, her grandmother was her only weakness. She couldn’t afford to gamble.
Perhaps she didn’t even realize it herself, but she was instinctively clearing the air about her relationship with Chandler.
After hearing Tracy’s explanation, Sean’s expression finally softened, and his tone became much gentler. “How can work be more important than people? Remember this: there are only people who aren’t worth the effort, there’s no such thing as not having enough time.”
Tracy looked up in surprise. In that moment, it was as if so many things finally made sense. It turned out Chandler just felt she wasn’t worth it, no matter what she did, which was why he could never find the time. It’s true what they say: it takes a man to know a man.
Just as she drove out of Garden Pavilion, Tracy received a call from Natalie. “Tracy, I got my

brother’s invitation to the auction. I hear there are a lot of collector’s items. Let’s go check it out tonight! You come out now, we’ll go pick out gowns first. My treat. Just keep me company, okay?”
Since getting together with Leon, she had lost herself, always either talking about partnerships or on the way to talk about them. Now that she was done with that scumbag, the whole world felt wonderful, and she wanted to quickly reintegrate into the circle she originally belonged to.
Tracy didn’t answer Natalie, because she saw through the car window that Julie and Sean were hugging. Julie was practically pressed against Sean’s body, looking very intimate.
Didn’t they say Julie and Sean had no relationship? What was this situation?
Natalie’s voice came from the other end again. “I haven’t been to an auction in ages. Just come with me, please?”
Pulled back to her senses, Tracy nodded and agreed. “Okay. Send me the address. I’ll go with you.”
She really couldn’t understand. One second he was asking her to go home with him to meet his grandmother, and the next he was entangled with another woman.
Sean could easily have asked Julie to meet his grandmother. Wasn’t asking her (Tracy) completely unnecessary?
Her heart was a mess. She didn’t know how to sort out her thoughts. She clearly only had a cooperative relationship with Sean.
But why, seeing him so close to another woman, did she feel an indescribable emotion, and even a little bit of grievance?
Sean’s dark eyes looked as if they were frozen. “Do you need something?”
Just now, Julie had been passing by, staggered, and fell right onto him. He pushed her away with some disgust.
His view was blocked by Julie, so he didn’t see Tracy’s car leave, nor did he sense that anything
was wrong.
Julie was very satisfied with Tracy’s reaction. That woman knew her place. She knew she couldn’t compare to her and had run off quickly.
Thinking of this, she said softly, “Will you go to the auction with me tonight? Aren’t you looking for something for Mrs. Johnson? I heard this auction is full of collector’s items. You can go and see if there’s anything she might want.”

After Tracy left Garden Pavilion, she quickly arrived at the meeting spot with Natalie. But she didn’t see Natalie. Instead, she saw several people she really didn’t want to see.
Chase was trailing behind Yvonne and Quincy, his hands laden with bags, looking somewhat comical, like a clown.
