Chapter 169
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 169<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, the old master doesn\u2019t have to\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is my neglect.\u201d The man looked outside the window, and said mildly. Ladd\u2019s body trembled and his shoulder lowered apparently\u2026 Boss had firmly believed that this incident was done by the old master.<\/p>\n
\u201cBoss, let think about it carefully. There must be something that we don\u2019t know. Please give me another month to investigate this incident!\u201d Ladd suddenly knelt down and said determinedly. The Shaw family had been kind to him. If it was because of his investigation report that failed to prove Miss James to be innocent, but instead led to the conflict within the Shaw family, he would feel guilty!<\/p>\n
After hearing that, Caden turned his head around coldly, lowered his eyes to glance at Ladd who was kneeling on the ground. He had seen through the mind of Ladd, he smiled lightly, \u201cI ask you to investigate this incident from three years ago secretly, but now, Ladd, you still think that no one knows about it?\u201d<\/p>\n
His finger pointed at the report on the desk, and he narrowed his eyes coldly, \u201cI\u2019m afraid that as soon as you began to investigate, my family had known everything since the beginning. Look, those \u2018evidences\u2019 were made so flawless.\u201d The thing was why the old master would make such a decision three years ago?<\/p>\n
This was also something that Caden couldn\u2019t figure out.<\/p>\n
If something that would agitate him did happen three years ago, it would merely be a game among several sides, but it was still the business of the Shaw family. No matter how, the old master didn\u2019t have to implicate a twenty-year-old girl at that time.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo.\u201d Caden raised his arm and asked Ladd to leave.<\/p>\n
Ladd still wanted to say something, but as he raised his head, his eyes were locked by a pair of black eyes that seemed to see through his thoughts, \u201cLadd, I know what you\u2019re thinking. But this incident is already more than a simple scheme between women.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen Miss James\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI will marry her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ladd shivered, her eyes widened all of a sudden and blinked\u2026 Boss said, what?<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it was the old master who had planned all that\u2026 Will he allow Miss James to be part of the Shaw family?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI will marry her, meaning I will protect her for the rest of her life.\u201d Caden said this sentence without clenching his teeth or being sweat or affectionate. However, Ladd somehow believed that this man in front of him did not just say it for fun.<\/p>\n
He thought of the girl who had chased boss all around and always stood behind the boss. He didn\u2019t know whether he should be happy for Miss James that she finally made it through alive, or should he felt heart-broken for her. This overdue promise came after her world was blown up and destroyed by a devastating tornado. It came so late.<\/p>\n
Caden was not stupid enough to ask the old master why.<\/p>\n
He raised his arm to check the time and strode outside the study room. He headed to the bedroom and went inside, \u201cGo to a business banquet with me tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d In the bedroom, the woman sat by the window quietly, staring at the modified security window. Through the glass, she could hear the man\u2019s voice, and she answered without even looking back.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not up to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man spoke with a charming voice.<\/p>\n
The woman, whose back was facing him, curled up a smile of ridicule, \u201cSince it\u2019s not up to me, why do you bother to inform me?\u201d After that day, she was imprisoned in this mansion, couldn\u2019t go out, like a canary in the cage.<\/p>\n
Every window in the mansion was installed with a security window\u2026 security window for who?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1374","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1374","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=1374"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
