Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

I owned a house in Florida with my children's father. It was bought for $140,000 cash and was in both of our names. It was a "gift" from my children's grandparents.

In 1999 we moved to California and when the grandparents offered to "buy" another home, they had me sign everything back over to them because this house was valued at $210,000. I have been in the house with my children for 10 years. We are going to be moving soon and my relationship with the grandparents is precarious and I don't know if they will still honor their word and give me the $70,000 I had been told was mine. There is nothing in writing. Do I have a legal right to challenge this when they sell this house?
