Chapter 80
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 80<\/p>\n
Grace couldn\u2019t see any emotional change on Cayne\u2019s handsome face.<\/p>\n
Cayne simply glanced at Grace\u2026 But he was announcing the end of this hunting game in his heart.<\/p>\n
It was fine that Grace was a gold digger, for he could make use of this weakness to approach her step by step and then to win the heart of this prey.<\/p>\n
In this hunting game, money was the bait and Grace was the prey.<\/p>\n
The charming part of the hunting game was to enjoy the struggles of the prey and the process of the hunting.<\/p>\n
But when this woman asked him for the money\u2026 Cayne thought that he would like to end this hunting game, for\u2026 it was too vulgar.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s late now, I have to come back.\u201d Cayne shook off his suit pant and said goodbye to Grace lightly.<\/p>\n
Grace pressed her lips together and said, \u201cI will send you off.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo need.\u201d Cayne replied in a cold voice. Anyone, including Grace, would feel embarrassed under such a circumstance.<\/p>\n
The change of his attitude was so obvious.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t stand on ceremony.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace closed the door. It was the first time that she had prepared to send this woman to downstairs. He had visited her several times, but every time when he was to leave, she just sent him to the door of her dormitory. But today, she made an exception and decided to send him to the downstairs.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss James.\u201d Cayne suddenly chuckled. There was a tinge of impatience on his face, \u201cI have five million, but I don\u2019t want to give it to you\u2026 Because at the moment you asked me the question, your noodles with scallion oil were not worthy of one hundred thousand anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
Five million was just nothing to Cayne. In the simplest case, one of his sports cars, which had relatively good performance, had costed much than this.<\/p>\n
He just suddenly felt stomach-churned, as if the noodles with scallion oil he ate just now had been spoiled.<\/p>\n
Grace remained silent. Then she suddenly chuckled, \u201cMr. Cayne, I have never said that the noodles I make are worthy of one hundred million. You thought they were worthy and were willing to pay the price, and I extremely lacked of money, so I took it. You may ask why I took the money with the knowledge that it was not an equivalent exchange. But you may have forgotten the fact that I\u2019m a bitch who can do anything to earn money. I\u2019m in short of money; I\u2019m yearning for five million. Do you know how important the \u2018five million\u2019 is to me? It is so important that if I can\u2019t earn five million within the agreed time limit, I will lose the most important thing in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s none of my business.\u201d Cayne was still expressionless\u2026 The hunting game had come to an end.<\/p>\n
He then raised his hand and glanced at his wristwatch, \u201cI\u2019ve waster so much time here and bothered you for a long time, Miss James. In the future, I think we will not meet in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI think so. That\u2019s the reason why I sent you to the downstairs.\u201d She ponders for a moment and continued, \u201cMr. Cayne, thank you. By the way, you were wrong about that.\u201d<\/p>\n
She added in a flat tone, \u201cWe\u2019re just strangers, so there is no \u2018future\u2019 between us. The \u2018future\u2019 shall be given to the ones who are important to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
After finishing the words, Grace pulled her coat tighter as a sweep of chilly air passed by. She turned around and slowly walked towards the stairs.<\/p>\n
Cayne suddenly pulled her arm, \u201cWhat did you mean by saying \u2018I think so. That\u2019s the reason why I sent you to the downstairs\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cayne felt that something must have been wrong as he thought over it. What did she mean by saying that?… She acted as if she was not the one who asked him for five million.<\/p>\n
Was she trying to save her face, or\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cMr., please let go of me. We have the same decision, what\u2019s the necessity of probing into it?\u201d<\/p>\n
He suddenly lifted his long legs and rushed upstairs to chase after Grace. He then stopped on the stair below the stair on which Grace was standing, and hooked around her neck from behind.<\/p>\n
Even if Cayne was standing on the stair below to Grace\u2019s, he was taller than Grace after all. He tightly hooked around Grace. Grace felt the weight on her shoulder as Cayne suddenly put his head on it. He leaned over and talked in Grace\u2019s ear in a dangerous tone, \u201cOne is bound to have a slip of the tongue if he talks too much. You shouldn\u2019t have answered my question just now. I\u2019m more interested in you now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace replied coldly, \u201cIt has nothing to do with me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss James\u2026 you\u2019re a cold-hearted person.\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course Grace knew that she was an indifferent person\u2026 Who would remain enthusiastic and philanthropic after staying in that dark place for three years?<\/p>\n
In that place, officiousness would only end up harming yourself. For instance\u2026 Leona put her finger in her affairs, and died in the end. She was still so young and hadn\u2019t given the opportunity to enjoy her colorful life.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Cayne, let\u2019s not meet with each other in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
She reached out to push him away, but at the next second, Cayne grasped her hands and confined them behind her back.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you want to do?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cayne didn\u2019t reply her. He reached out one hand and used his slender fingers to push aside her bangs.<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s heart missed one beat and she widened her eyes in shock, \u201cStop! Stop!\u201d<\/p>\n
But no matter how hard she had struggled, she still could not break free from Cayne\u2019s confinement. Cayne joked with his manly voice, \u201cDon\u2019t move around. You can\u2019t escape away.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1285","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1285","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=1285"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
