Chapter 77
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 77<\/p>\n
Grace knew that she had been out of her mind.<\/p>\n
But in the eyes of Caden, she was stunningly beautiful, and was even more beautiful than she had been three years ago\u2026 But Grace had no idea about this.<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me, what it is?\u201d<\/p>\n
She was not afraid of losing anything, for she thought she had nothing.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want\u2026\u201d Caden was bewildered, but he suddenly paused at the next second.<\/p>\n
His expression changed as he insouciantly shot a glance at Grace, \u201cWhat can you give to me?\u201d<\/p>\n
He had always been reasonable and indifferent! He had always been composed! How could he allow a woman to ruin his composure and reason casually?<\/p>\n
His grandfather\u2019s admonishment lingered in his ear. He had told him: One day, when there is a person who can impact your emotions and decisions, then please don\u2019t hesitate and kill him in person.<\/p>\n
Grace was so upset\u2026 Leona, my dear Leona, I was still so useless.<\/p>\n
Why?<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy? Mr. Shaw, I have been useless to you. Please do not be hard on me and let go of me like sparing an animal\u2019s life. It\u2019s so simple and so easy. Why couldn\u2019t you show me some mercy?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace was dejected, \u201cEven if you hate me so much, I had been imprisoned for three years and I had lost everything. What\u2019s the fun of keeping me by your side?\u201d<\/p>\n
Caden chuckled, \u201cGrace James, do you think that three years are enough? Three years for a life? It\u2019s so cost-effective, right? Of course I should keep you by my side, and then I can slowly torture you until it\u2019s enough to pay off Wallis\u2019s life! Even if I can let you off, have you ever thought of Sam? He was old and Wallis was his only family in the world. If I let you off so easily, what am I supposed to tell him?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace remained silent and kept her head lowered. Caden frowned. Her beauty of despair had disappeared as if it was a nine days’ wonder, and Grace changed back to the jittery woman again, which made him feel very uncomfortable.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Shaw.\u201d Just as Caden was reaching out towards Grace, Grace suddenly raised her head, \u201cPresident Shaw, you said that if I can deposit five million into the card within one month, then I will be given the right to choose whether to leave or to stay. President Shaw, you\u2019re the most powerful person in S City, so you\u2019re definitely a man of your words and won\u2019t go back on your words, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
After all, she should have a try\u2026 Otherwise, she would not be able to realize Leona\u2019s dream for the rest of her life.<\/p>\n
That girl told her that she hadn\u2019t been to the Erhai Lake and that she wished to run a Bed & Breakfast by the lake\u2026 But in the end, she died and closed her eyes, and would not open them again.<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s was waiting for Caden\u2019s answer. She was waiting for Caden\u2019s final decision.<\/p>\n
But Caden was fuming at this moment\u2026 This woman was so determined to leave him!<\/p>\n
He felt gust of anger for no reason, but his eyes looked so cold, \u201cOf course. But I should remind you, for the one-month time limit, you don\u2019t have too much time left.<\/p>\n
He had primed Gloria not to arrange work for Grace before, so he was confident that this woman wouldn\u2019t earn five million within one month.<\/p>\n
Not to mention five million, she couldn\u2019t even earn five hundred from now on.<\/p>\n
Hearing the words, Grace secretly heaved a sigh of relief. But she didn\u2019t know that the man standing in front of her had been paying attention to her every movement, even if it was so minor.<\/p>\n
A trace of mockery flashed across Caden\u2019s long eyes.<\/p>\n
He lifted his long leg and walked across the sofa. He then picked up a finance magazine on the table and indifferently ordered her to leave while sitting down, \u201cGet out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace didn\u2019t want to stay here.<\/p>\n
She got out from the sofa and walked towards the lift. But she was unaware that behind her, he was following her into the lift with his deep-set eyes.<\/p>\n
When the door of the lift was about to be closed, Grace shot a glance at Caden who was sitting in the living room. The man hadn\u2019t raised his head and was still reading the magazine in a composed manner.<\/p>\n
Grace then looked down at the ground.<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
In the Lo Group<\/p>\n
\u2018So she worked during the night.\u201d The idea flashed across Leon\u2019s mind, but it disappeared before he could catch it.<\/p>\n
Leon shook his head\u2026 Maybe it was because he had been so tired recently.<\/p>\n
Leon caressed his eyebrows, \u201cBut I don\u2019t think a woman working in a nightclub would be interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, Leon, you\u2019re wrong. She\u2019s very interesting, and she\u2019s the most interesting woman I have ever seen. No one could be her in this aspect. Leon, I got a good idea and I decided not to go to the nightclub tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh\u2026 So you give up your new prey?\u201d<\/p>\n
It was definitely impossible. According to his knowledge of Cayne\u2019s characteristics, he wouldn\u2019t give up the prey whom he was interested in before he had successfully won her heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo\u2026 I just feel that this idea is better than going to the nightclub to find her. Oh yeah, that\u2019s the case, let\u2019s do it.\u201d He seemed to be answering Leon\u2019s question, while seeming to be talking to himself.<\/p>\n
Leon was accustomed to his behavior style. He frowned and held back the words, for he was familiar with Cayne\u2019s past, it was so hard for him to bring up the topic to Cayne.<\/p>\n
\u201cLeon, I have to go first.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Cayne touched the doorknob of the door of the office, a thought flashed across Leon\u2019s mind. He sighed heavily\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cCayne, sometimes you shouldn\u2019t go too far. It not only hurts others, but also yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you talking about? I don\u2019t understand it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Leon shook his head, \u201cNo, you know what I\u2019m talking about. I meant\u2026 If one day, the prey that you are once interested in coincidentally becomes the most important woman in your life. I have a question \u2013 what would you do in the face of such a destiny.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s impossible.\u201d After saying the words, Cayne opened the door and walked out of the office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1282","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1282","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=1282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
