Chapter 3Reborn as the Unwanted Daughter

For the sake of the "grandson" in her belly, Grandma didn't scold Mom too much, just gave her a death glare.

She pulled me out of the room.

"Penny, don't hold it against your mother," Grandma advised.

She wasn't siding with Mom; she was siding with the "grandson."

I smiled obediently. "Grandma, how could I blame Mom? I'm just worried..."

"Worried about what?"

"I'm worried little brother will think Mom doesn't welcome him. What if he decides not to come?" I said with a concerned face.

Grandma's eyes darted around nervously.

I stopped there. I knew she got the message.

I didn't want to be involved anymore. I was a senior in high school; studying was my priority.

In my last life, I split my focus taking care of Mom and only got into a decent state college. With this second chance, I deserved a better life.

"Grandma, I'm graduating soon. Once I'm done, I'll get a job and won't need my room anymore. Why don't I move into the dorms now? That way, you can turn my room into the nursery for little brother," I told Grandma.

My boss taught me well in my past life—always paint a pretty picture.

Grandma beamed, praising my thoughtfulness.

I don't know what she told Dad, but he agreed.

The day I left for the dorms, I saw Grandma carrying a jar of "special herbal wine" like it was treasure.

Mom, enjoy your days ahead.
