Chapter 87
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 87<\/p>\n
Grace stood still while staring at the check.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? You don\u2019t want to?\u201d Walter sneered.<\/p>\n
\u201cCome on, Mr. He, after all, she was once the most proud noble lady in S City.\u201d Walter\u2019s companions tried to dissuade him, though it sounded more like a kind of mockery.<\/p>\n
\u201cProud and noble?\u201d Walter sneer. He lit up a cigarette and squinted at Grace, \u201cBut look at her. How awful she is now!\u201d<\/p>\n
Gloria regretted so much.<\/p>\n
She had never expected that there was once a grudge between Grace and those playboys. If she had known about it earlier, she would never have brought Grace here to let her bear all kinds of humiliation.<\/p>\n
Grace looked around those familiar faces, who were all once her old friends, but she felt them so distant and strange.<\/p>\n
So did her old friends. They could not even recognize her at the first sight.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrace, do you have fun staying in the prison?\u201d<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a man sitting on the sofa provoked.<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly noticed that that guy was once one of her best friends, who always stayed up late, played video games and shared all kinds of fun with her.<\/p>\n
\u201cQuinn…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, please don\u2019t address me with my real name,\u201d Quinn waved his hands to deny, \u201cI don\u2019t want to be a friend of a murderer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s body suddenly shivered. She felt dizzy the next second, with the voice of Quinn lingering around her ears.<\/p>\n
Gloria was so shocked to hear that! A murderer?!<\/p>\n
Though she knew Grace was a prisoner, but she had never expected that she was a murderer.<\/p>\n
How could Grace, a seemingly stupid girl, have ever committed murder?1<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I heard that you need money,\u201d Quinn took out a stack of cash from his wallet, with the amount of approximately thirty thousand dollars. He threw it out the table, \u201cHere are the tips for your later show of slapping your own.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace clenched her fists but loosened. She kept repeating the same things for a while.<\/p>\n
Though others did not provoke Grace as what Quinn did, they all just sat aside to observe, waiting for her self-humiliation show.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrace, are you going to refuse? Think about it, you need that money. I don\u2019t know exactly what kind of urgent thing you have encountered, but I noticed it was Gloria who went to curry me a favor…\u201d<\/p>\n
Gloria really regretted bring Grace here.<\/p>\n
If there were a chance, she would never make such a severe mistake.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. He, be lenient wherever it is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGloria, do you think you are qualified enough to dissuade me? You are just a pet kept by the real boss of the Royal Club. We talk to you respectfully just because of your real boss. But you are too weak to negotiate with the upper class of S City.\u201d<\/p>\n
Walter walked to the front of Grace, looking down on her, \u201cGrace, your pride or five hundred thousand dollars, make a choice.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWalter He!\u201d Grace\u2019s eyes turned bloodshot out of anger, \u201cIt should be only a grudge between us! What the hell do you want?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace had been really grateful to Gloria for what she had done for her. She cherished the kindness and care of Gloria so much.<\/p>\n
Of course it was not Gloria\u2019s obligation to be kind to her and she still had the right to make her own choice. Grace always deemed other\u2019s kindness for her as a kind of happy lot.<\/p>\n
However, Walter slapped Gloria again and again in front of Grace.<\/p>\n
It made her felt even worse than being slapped.<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me! What the hell do you want from me! Walter! Tell me!\u201d Grace shouted.<\/p>\n
Her hoarse voice even got even shriller.<\/p>\n
Gloria was stunned, as it was the first time that she had seen Grace turned so delirious and furious. Grace always stayed calm and emotionless most of the time. But Grace seemed to turn into a monster when seeing her being slapped.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrace, I am alright…\u201d<\/p>\n
Then, another violent slap fell on Gloria\u2019s face again. Her face swelled all of a sudden and her back side of her head hit the table hard.<\/p>\n
Grace saw Gloria teetered and she was about to be faint.<\/p>\n
\u201cWalter, I accept your request. I will kneel down!\u201d Grace exerted all her strength to shout out with her hoarse voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cWait,\u201d Walter stopped her, and then he smash a wine glass on the ground, with fragments scattering all over the ground, \u201cNow you can kneel down.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1292","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1292","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=1292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
