Chapter 112
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 112<\/p>\n
Gloria shivered. At this moment, she felt the surrounding pressure was extremely low.<\/p>\n
She also felt sorry for Grace. Franklin was nothing like the man named Cayne. Gloria had dealt with mountains of people in these years, so she was quite good at analyzing people.<\/p>\n
But today, she was present when the strife between boss and Franklin happened.<\/p>\n
Franklin\u2019s performance was out of her expectation.<\/p>\n
It never occurred to Gloria that those words would come from the widely-recognized playboy Mr. Cordon.<\/p>\n
There was an old saying; a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold…Maybe it well fit Mr. Cordon now.<\/p>\n
Gloria couldn\u2019t figure out what Caden wanted either…Didn\u2019t he know that he was never a person who liked putting his finger into another\u2019s pie?<\/p>\n
Wasn\u2019t he aware that he lost control today? When he saw that Grace and Mr. Cordon were hanging out, he behaved like a husband who had witnessed the adultery of his wife.<\/p>\n
\u201cKirk, send two people to keep an eye on her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kirk didn\u2019t know to keep an eye on whom all at once.<\/p>\n
\u201cReport to me if anything happens.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kirk understood until this moment…Boss was asking him to keep an eye on Grace.<\/p>\n
But a new question popped up. Anything happened? What anything?<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t just report everything, big or small, to the boss who was occupied with countless work every day.<\/p>\n
Kirk\u2019s face twisted. He was about to scratch his head if he was not driving.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf that woman dares to do anything to betray me…\u201d The man with a gorgeous face sitting in the back suddenly looked fierce. Cruelty flashed across his face.<\/p>\n
However, when hearing this, apart from feeling shocked, Kirk and Gloria both became curious and a strange expression appeared on their faces…Grace dared to do anything to betray boss…When boss said this, was he admitting to something in a sense?<\/p>\n
The second day.<\/p>\n
When Grace got off work and was on her way out, she was blocked by a man in the corridor.<\/p>\n
\u201c…Mr. Shaw.\u201d<\/p>\n
After a long departure, Caden finally showed up in Royal Club again. He looked down at the woman before him, and an anonymous fire was burning in his heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cEm.\u201d He lowered his voice and replied. Then he said nothing.<\/p>\n
Grace was all tensed up, and after bypassing Caden, she looked down on the road and quickly walked away.<\/p>\n
Behind her back, the fire of anger was burning more wildly in the man\u2019s eyes,<\/p>\n
He strode forward before grabbing her arm, \u201cWhere is Miss James rushing to? To meet your lover?\u201d<\/p>\n
At the thought of everything the woman had committed, he wanted to just choke her to death.<\/p>\n
Grace tensed up, \u201cI… I just got off work. Please let me go, Mr. Shaw. I am going back to my dorm.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTo your dorm? Or to meet your lover?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s face became pale all of a sudden. She looked up and saw the sarcasm in the man\u2019s eyes at first sight.<\/p>\n
Pretending to be tough, she stopped breathing and said in a cold voice, \u201cI am a slut. After a slut gets off work, of course she will meet her lover. What else can she do? Mr. Shaw, please let go of me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Overwhelmed by fury, Caden grasped Grace\u2019s arm tightly and didn\u2019t let go.<\/p>\n
Grace looked at his hand that was grabbing hers and said coldly, \u201cOr does Mr. Shaw want to be my customer too today?\u201d<\/p>\n
Caden was so angry that he laughed, \u201cOkay, then don\u2019t leave today. I will be your customer.\u201d<\/p>\n
A hand was presented before Caden.<\/p>\n
Sense of rebellion was controlling her. She raised her brows and looked at Caden indifferently…Why should she smile? Why should she listen to him? He ruined half of her life, and she had to smile to him?<\/p>\n
Her eyes stung Caden\u2019s heart like a needle. It was so painful!<\/p>\n
Caden\u2019s heart hurt and his eyes darkened. He looked at her coldly, \u201cNo smile? You sell your smiles every day and now you can\u2019t do it? Grace, can\u2019t you even do your job? Or because you want this?\u201d<\/p>\n
While talking, he reached his left hand to his pocket and took out several red bank notes, \u201cYou will only smile for this\uff1f\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace moved her eyes slowly and looked at the red bank notes in his hand. No one could read what she was thinking now. The she raised her head, and focused her eyes on Caden\u2019s deep eyes without a blink. They were staring at each other now.<\/p>\n
Her lips raised and she squeezed out a professional smile. She asked, \u201cDone?\u201d Why did he enjoy forcing her to do things that she didn\u2019t like so much?<\/p>\n
Caden stared at her face and wanted to find out a trace of the smile that she showed Franklin last night…No! It was not the same smile!<\/p>\n
It was not the same at all!<\/p>\n
What Franklin said echoed by his ears again, \u201cI could make her smile, can you say the same thing?\u201d<\/p>\n
Could he?<\/p>\n
Could he do that?… Caden asked himself again and again. Could he make her smile?<\/p>\n
The answer was clear as crystal. But…it was so damn unacceptable.<\/p>\n
\u201cGet away!\u201d He shook off her hand and shouted furiously, \u201cGet the hell away from here! And don\u2019t make me see you again!\u201d He was trying to convince himself. With red eyes, he turned around and glared at her in rage, adding, \u201cDon\u2019t stain my eyes!\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace left without saying a word. But the familiar pain rose up in her heart again, which she chose to ignore.<\/p>\n
Behind her back, the man watched at the exit where she disappeared minutes ago. He was so angry and his chest hurt badly…Why she didn\u2019t smile! Why the woman who used to only love him was now smiling at another man!<\/p>\n
Why did he become so angry whenever he thought of that damn woman…!<\/p>\n
He raised his fist and stroked it towards the wall. Bang! Blood dripped down from his fist and hit the ground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1317","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1317","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=1317"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
