Her pretty face was cold, \u201cSo, the reason you rest is<\/p>\n<p>not that you are tired?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After saying this, Gloria picked up her mobile phone and looked at Grace, &#8220;If you don&#8217;t tell me, then I will call Mr. Caden<\/p>\n<p>directly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria was too anxious, so she said this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, Mr. Caden will not care about me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gloria was stunned. This time, what Grace said was true.<\/p>\n<p>Gloria thought of Caden. He was the one who was the cruelest to Grace.<\/p>\n<p>She was afraid that if she called him now and told him that Grace&#8217;s head was hit hurt, he would just be indifferent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK, Grace. I won&#8217;t call Mr. Caden. I&#8217;ll call your manager of public relations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace&#8217;s face turned white, &#8220;Don&#8217;t call Manager Xu, please.\u201d Gloria was shocked. Was Grace so afraid of Manager Xu? Grace<\/p>\n<p>looked pale and pleaded to Gloria.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, don&#8217;t call Manager Xu.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Manager Xu didn&#8217;t like her at all. If she was hated by Manager Xu because of this, she would be transferred from the public<\/p>\n<p>relations department. Then, where could she raise five million to pay back that man?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will tell you. I&#8230; I hit the doorknob.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow did you hit the doorknob?&#8221; Gloria was very smart. How could a person suddenly hit the doorknob?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I went back that day, it suddenly rained. I was drenched in the rain and felt dizzy.\u201d Grace still concealed what Ruby had<\/p>\n<p>done.<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t harbor Ruby, nor did she love Ruby. She just didn&#8217;t want to be hated by anyone again.<\/p>\n<p>She was scared.<\/p>\n<p>Caden had made her suffer a lot.<\/p>\n<p>The feeling of being hated by someone was not well at all.<\/p>\n<p>Gloria looked at Grace in front of her with sharp eyes, and seemed to be judging whether what Grace said was true.<\/p>\n<p>After a while, Gloria&#8217;s attitude softened, \u201cThe wound on your forehead hasn&#8217;t healed yet. Go back to take a rest. It&#8217;s not too late<\/p>\n<p>to go back to work after the wound heals. I&#8217;ll inform your manager.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to drinking, Grace, who had always been obedient to anything, defied Gloria in front of her. Gloria was shocked,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cListen to me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo. I&#8217;m fine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are not in good health. The line on your forehead has not been removed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gloria, if you really love me, please give me more work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Those words made Gloria feel unhappy but heartache.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing that this person in front of her, who was shameless to others, was really stubborn, Gloria rubbed her eyebrows. &#8220;You<\/p>\n<p>go out first.\u201d Even if she stopped Grace, she guessed that the fool woman would try her best to make more money.<\/p>\n<p>Gloria had five million, and she also could give it to Grace. But, if Caden knew that she gave Grace money, she would be<\/p>\n<p>miserable.<\/p>\n<p>After Grace left, Gloria looked at the check on the table. Without hesitation, she transferred 100,000 from her account to the<\/p>\n<p>bank card Caden gave Grace.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the bank was closed, but people like them could handle business that others couldn&#8217;t handle.<\/p>\n<p>As for the check, Gloria put it in her safe.<\/p>\n<p>New York City.<\/p>\n<p>she also knew that no one could stand his means if Caden was cruel. She could only euphemistically say.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grace just gave the man a kiss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gloria thought that this should not be a matter. In Royal Club, a kiss was nothing. Therefore, although she was worried, she<\/p>\n<p>didn&#8217;t think that Grace would offend the indifferent Caden in this way.<\/p>\n<p>In New York, the man hung up coldly.<\/p>\n<p>He looked out of the window with a cold face. No one knew what he was thinking. In the meeting room, people were scared.<\/p>\n<p>The boss was deep in his mind and no one could see through him. But at the moment, people couldn&#8217;t breathe in the oppressive atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>All people shrunk their shoulders and tried not to make any noise.<\/p>\n<p>Caden looked out of the window with cold eyes. His face was as beautiful and cold as jade. He smiled coldly. Was it not too<\/p>\n<p>much?<\/p>\n<p>There was a glint of mockery in his eyes, as well as an irresistible anger.<\/p>\n<p>Looking out of the window, Caden remembered that the night before he came to New York, he also stood in front of the<\/p>\n<p>window of the hotel style apartment on the 28th floor of Royal Club, looking at YES Club. He didn&#8217;t know why. He hated to see that the woman was humble and didn&#8217;t have self-dignity. He didn&#8217;t want to see such a Grace again!<\/p>\n<p>He did not understand why Grace, who could not affect his mood three years ago, could make him angry after she was<\/p>\n<p>released from prison now. As long as he saw such a Grace, he couldn&#8217;t help feeling angry. Since he didn&#8217;t want to see her, then he came to N City!<\/p>\n<p>He thought that his mood swings in these days were just because that he was not used to facing the poor woman who was<\/p>\n<p>totally different from his impression.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe after coming to New York, he could have a period of time without seeing such a mean and poor Grace, and those<\/p>\n<p>inexplicable mood swings would automatically disappear.<\/p>\n<p>But she kissed someone else again?<\/p>\n<p>Was she really cheap and shameless enough to be able to do anything?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKirk, prepare to return.&#8221; Caden gave the order with a frosty face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1248","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1248","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1248"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
