The Tension with Gertrude
Grace had always known her mother-in-law, Gertrude, wasn’t fond of her. Since the day she married David, Gertrude had made every attempt to criticize her, from her cooking to her fashion choices. No matter what Grace did, it was never enough for Gertrude. But that night, something changed.
It was a quiet evening, the soft hum of conversation filling the dining room as the family gathered for dinner. Grace had prepared a warm meal, hoping for a peaceful evening, but the moment Gertrude opened her mouth, everything fell apart.
