Chapter 47 Why Are You Panicked? Is This Your Diagnosis?
To avoid worrying Grandma, Tracy forced herself to make it to the car. The moment she sat down, she finally let out a breath of relief.
Her hands trembling, she pulled out the medicine bottle, tossed a pill into her mouth, then grabbed her thermos and took several large gulps of warm water, finally washing away the bitterness.
Since finding out she was sick, she kept a cup of warm water in her car every day, just in case.
Just as she was about to start the car, she suddenly saw a familiar figure, but she couldn’t place the person until they walked away.
She lowered the car window and saw Yvonne standing at the entrance with another woman. The two were acting intimately, like they were close friends.
When she clearly saw the other woman’s face, Tracy’s pupils contracted. Only then did she remember who that woman was.
It was Quincy, a former junior high classmate of Tracy’s.
Back then, Quincy’s family was very poor and extremely patriarchal. One time, Quincy tried to end her life when her parents were away.
The landlord called the police. Tracy’s uncle, who was a police officer at the time, broke the window and rescued her.
Because Quincy’s family couldn’t afford the medical bills, her uncle paid for Quincy’s treatment out of his own pocket and bought her snacks occasionally.
Since Quincy’s family was poor and lived in the same community as her uncle, her uncle took extra care of the teenage girl.
Later, for reasons unknown, Quincy reported her uncle to the police, accusing him of attempted rape of a minor.
Her uncle’s girlfriend insisted on breaking up with him over the incident and wouldn’t listen to his side of the story at all.
Quincy’s family and Quincy herself all testified to her uncle’s crime. Furthermore, someone had filmed Quincy coming out of the house in disheveled clothing and uploaded the video online.
She cried, giving a detailed, convincing account. Someone even found contraception on her uncle, leaving him completely unable to defend himself.

The incident caused a huge scandal back then. Her uncle was not only suspended from his job but was harassed online daily, suffering immense mental torment.
He lost his job and spent two years in prison. After his release, he became depressed and remained listless.
She wanted to ask her uncle what happened, but he refused to discuss it. He never told her the full story before he passed away.
Seeing that face again, a surge of anger rose in Tracy’s heart. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, trembling with fury.
This woman had caused her uncle so much misery, yet she was living so well.
This world is truly too unfair!
She refused to believe her uncle was that kind of person. She was just too young to investigate the matter back then.
But now, she would not let Quincy off the hook. She would thoroughly investigate the truth of that year, and she would make Quincy pay the price.
However, Tracy’s hands quickly relaxed. She had just heard Yvonne call Quincy her cousin.
She sneered coldly. Cousins, huh? Birds of a feather flock together. They were all the same sort.
Playing the “farmer and the snake” game. Both families were clearly adept at it!
Tracy quickly started the car and drove away from the Xander family home.
Quincy watched the car disappear and asked Yvonne, “Who was that driving away just now?”
Yvonne smiled dismissively, “Just someone unimportant. Don’t worry about her. Let’s go inside!”
She never cared about Tracy, but sometimes she had to keep up appearances,
However, over the years, Tracy’s relationship with the family had worsened, which was good for Yvonne’s obedient persona.
Tracy left the Xander family home, and it began to pour rain. While waiting at a traffic light, she received a call from her third uncle, Morgan
“Tracy, I heard your Grandma was hurt. Is she alright now?”
Tracy glanced at the running windshield wipers. “She was discharged today, Uncle Morgan. Are you going to visit Grandma?”

Morgan never visited Grandma, but he would occasionally call to ask about her condition.
This shows that Morgan only pretended not to forgive Grandma. In his heart, he had forgiven her long ago but couldn’t get over his past grievance.
Morgan refused without hesitation, “No, if she’s fine, that’s good enough. Oh, wait, I think I have something simmering in the kitchen. I should go check it.”
Tracy wanted to say more, but he quickly hung up. She could only sigh silently. The light turned green, and she concentrated on driving.
She was relieved that Sean hadn’t told Morgan about her cancer. She could breathe easy.
After eating a bowl of oats outside, Tracy returned home. It was already eight in the evening.
She was surprised to see Chandler, who hadn’t been home for days.
The two exchanged a glance, neither showing any emotion. Tracy poured a glass of water, drank a few sips, and walked upstairs.
Chandler’s eyes narrowed. He called out to her, I have something to discuss with you.”
Tracy paused, turning her head slightly. This was the first time Chandler had spoken to her in a long while.
He’s probably here to settle the score for Yvonne, just like the Xander family.
He parted his thin lips, his tone devoid of emotion, “I heard you went to Vector Tech today. What were you doing there?”
Sure enough, he had listened to Yvonne and came to lecture her, thinking she was wrong.
Sometimes, she truly admired Yvonne. The woman tried to take everything she owned.
And Yvonne had the ability to get whatever she wanted. Her methods were certainly clever.
Tracy calmly said, “Mm, you fired me. I have to find a job to support myself, don’t I?”
Chandler’s eyes scrutinized her, “Do you think I can’t support you?”
When he first heard about it, he didn’t believe it After all, Tracy was only a Bachelor’s graduate, and though she studied electronic information engineering, she had been out of the industry for three years.
And Vector Tech hired high-achieving graduates with Master’s and Doctoral degrees. He didn’t believe Tracy could work there.

But hearing Tracy admit it, Chandler frowned subtly. She seems to have changed. She’s no longer that submissive woman who obeyed his every wond.
Could this be another one of Tracy’s moves-using retreat to advance-with the goal of getting his attention?
Tracy calmly took out the lawyer’s letter from her bag, a sneer playing on her lips, “You’re suing me and forcing me to pay back millions. Do you really expect me to believe you would support me?”
The moment she pulled out the lawyer’s letter, her diagnosis and divorce agreement were also pulled out, falling at Chandler’s feet.
Her heart leaped. She quickly crouched down to pick up the scattered white pages. The divorce cooling-off period is almost over. Nothing can go wrong now.
Chandler paused, glancing at the papers on the floor. Seeing Tracy’s panicked look, he also crouched down to help her pick up the papers.
But as his large hand reached for the diagnosis, Tracy quickly snatched it away, Still, the sharp-eyed Chandler had already seen the word Diagnosis”.
After shoving the diagnosis and the divorce agreement back into her bag, Tracy finally sighed in relief. The relief lasted only a few seconds.
Chandler asked solemnly. “Why are you panicking? Is this your diagnosis?”
