Why do you expect him go to Royal Club?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Humbert glared at Ingemar. There were so many stories here. Ingemar was not in the country a while ago and didn&#8217;t know it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hey, could it be because of her?&#8221; Humbert tapped his finger on the desktop.<\/p>\n<p>Caden didn&#8217;t speak, and Humbert leaned forward with a gossiping look, &#8220;Who? Who? Because of her? Who is she?&#8221; He smiled curiously.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, President Shaw. Is there anyone you admire? Who? Which beauty? Take her out with you and let us have a look.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Humbert took pleasure in his words, &#8220;Ingemar, I think you will be beaten if you keep talking about that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Stop! What&#8217;s the matter with you! I\u2019m asking him. President Shaw, who, which beauty captured your heart?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A fist directly met Ingemar&#8217;s guilty face and slammed it. Ingemar&#8217;s eyes suddenly shrank, and he quickly avoided, patting his chest, &#8220;Damn it! Caden, you ambush me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Humbert laughed, &#8220;Idiot. I reminded you earlier that you would be beaten if you kept talking. You didn&#8217;t believe it. You asked for it yourself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ingemar looked back and forth between Caden and Humbert suspiciously, then he did a double take, &#8220;Fuck! It&#8217;s not Grace, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A fist caught him.<\/p>\n<p>Well, Ingemar was really beaten after speaking.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fuck, fuck! I guessed right! I must have guessed right! How else would I get beaten? Caden, hurry up. Tell me what happened during my absence?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The curiosity about gossip flashed in Ingemar\u2019s eyes. Then a cold gaze fell on him. Caden asked him calmly, &#8220;Do you want a fist or a slap?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ingemar was speechless.<\/p>\n<p>Humbert tugged Ingemar and let him stand behind him, and turned his head to look at Caden,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you think?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Parker pen in Caden&#8217;s hand stopped. After a while, he put it on the table, squinting in thought.<\/p>\n<p>Humbert did not urge him.<\/p>\n<p>Caden raised his head suddenly and said to Humbert, &#8220;I want to see Grace be the one she used to be three years ago.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When these words sounded, not only Humbert, but even Ingemar was stunned.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Time can&#8217;t go back.&#8221; Humbert said lightly, &#8220;She is what she is like now, you can&#8217;t change her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t thought about changing her.&#8221; The man behind the desk said with a serious face, &#8220;I don&#8217;t like the way she is now. Grace who has no dignity and self-respect soul is not herself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can keep your eyes out of sight.&#8221; In Humbert\u2019s view, Caden was just asking for trouble, he could not see her if he didn\u2019t want to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She wants to leave, just let her go.&#8221; Seeing that Caden said nothing, Humbert added.<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t expect his simple suggestion would make Caden so strange. His face turned to be gloomy immediately and he said coldly, &#8220;Impossible! It can only be a dream for her to leave me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At this moment, not only Humbert saw the problem, but even Ingemar, a playboy who had always only cared about gossip, also saw the problem.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Caden, you are in trouble.&#8221; Humbert announced.<\/p>\n<p>There was no smile on the face of Ingemar that had always been laughing and joking, only a serious face remained, &#8220;Stockholm syndrome, you are the opposite extreme.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, you didn&#8217;t go to Royal Club because of her? Why? You don&#8217;t want to see her, or are you&#8230; afraid to see her?&#8221; Humbert was a doctor after all, and his words were close to the truth!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How is it possible?&#8221; Would he be afraid to see her? This was never possible.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are in love with her.&#8221; Ingemar said after Humbert.<\/p>\n<p>The man behind the desk pulled out a sneer on his handsome face, &#8220;This is even more impossible!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Humbert&#8217;s eyes were complicated. If it were Grace three years ago, he would raise his hands in favor of Caden and Grace. But now, Grace was not good enough for Caden!<\/p>\n<p>Ugly!<\/p>\n<p>Humble!<\/p>\n<p>Mean!<\/p>\n<p>A con without self!<\/p>\n<p>She was not good enough for Caden!<\/p>\n<p>Humbert&#8217;s expression was complicated. He felt turbulent and squinted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If I were you, I would throw her away where I couldn&#8217;t see.&#8221; Humbert reminded indifferently, &#8220;Wallis\u2019 death is closely related to her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are just shocked by the tremendous changes in Grace. After all, you are all childhood partners who grew up together. Caden, you are only shocked by her changes for a while, that&#8217;s all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Caden was silent for a while, and said, &#8220;Let me think about it again and make it clear.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Some things he had never touched before, and for a while, he couldn&#8217;t figure out what he wanted.<\/p>\n<p>No matter how bad at feeling things, Caden still aware of his own changes&#8230; He couldn\u2019t ignore her! Even if this damn woman had become so vicious, he still couldn&#8217;t strangle her to death!<\/p>\n<p>Humbert and Ingemar left Caden&#8217;s office first. Ingemar held Humble, &#8220;Why do you deliberately say that to him?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He didn&#8217;t believe it, and Humbert couldn&#8217;t see the problem that he could see!<\/p>\n<p>Humbert just glanced at Ingemar indifferently, &#8220;It doesn\u2019t matter that a person looks ugly, but how about the heart? Her heart is so ugly that she still bears the person who was killed by her and even insulated a dead person who has passed away for three years. She said Wallis would rot in the hell forever&#8230; &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you think Grace is worthy of Caden?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ingemar was speechless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1307","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1307","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=1307"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
