Whoever can get the old pen carried by Uncle Don all the time will win and the reward is the jade from my study room.<\/p>\n<p>Later, she won and got the jade, she felt very delightful. She was born in a very wealthy family, so she had seen many jades before, but her grandpa\u2019s jade was very different from the others. Its color was extremely pure. If she held the jade under the sun, the sunlight would go through the entire jade and glittered. Girls liked glittering things, and she wasn\u2019t an exception as a little girl.<\/p>\n<p>Payne wanted to take it from her when he saw the jade. She refused and pushed Payne slightly, but Payne fell onto the ground.<\/p>\n<p>The housekeeper that took care of Payne saw this scene and was pissed off, so she said to the little Grace,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re really a parentless child, so uneducated, and even pushed the master to the floor!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She was shocked\u2026 Parentless?<\/p>\n<p>She asked back immediately, \u201cI have parents, why would you say that I am parentless?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The housekeeper was stunned as well, then she said, \u201cAren\u2019t you growing up with the old master? I don\u2019t see how close you are with your parents\u2026 Oh, it was actually my fault. I saw the young master falling to the ground and I am too worried about his situation. Grace, please don\u2019t tell the old master, will you? It was my fault, and I would apologize to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She was young at that time, thus, she believed the housekeeper\u2019s words.<\/p>\n<p>But now, at this moment, Grace felt her right foot burnt by actual fire because Sam said that \u201cthe sole of my daughter\u2019s right foot has a mole\u201d. It hurt so painfully that she couldn\u2019t stand it anymore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust, just because of a mole on the foot, you think that wasn\u2019t your daughter? What other proofs do you have besides that black mole to prove that Wallis wasn\u2019t your daughter?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Only the mole of the foot wasn\u2019t enough to prove her thoughts\u2026 Many people in this world had a mole on their foot.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as Sam opened his mouth and was about to talk, a noise sounded suddenly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho is it?\u201d Sam tightened his body and looked around warily. His cloudy eyes moved around, scanning across every inch of the surrounding. Although he didn\u2019t catch anything, yet this sudden noise put pressure on Sam.<\/p>\n<p>Sam changed his expression and was afraid that things might go wrong: \u201cNo more talking!\u2026 If I can\u2019t live, you will not either! Die\u2026 with Wallis!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As he finished his words, his murderous look was unfolded completely!<\/p>\n<p>A  sharp flick knife approached Grace!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStop!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gloria realized that she couldn\u2019t hide any longer. She didn\u2019t expect the old man to be so vigilant. If there was anything unusual to him, he became alerted and was going to kill Grace without hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>She put her hands on the back and sent her location to Caden with the phone.<\/p>\n<p>After that, she hurriedly threw it to the corner\u2026 If the old man saw the phone, he would definitely find out that she had sent Caden her location.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGloria?\u201d Grace shouted, \u201cRun!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t be stupid.\u201d Gloria shook her head, \u201cI could not escape the punishment of the boss if I run away now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSorry\u2026 for dragging you into this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSilly girl, I chased all the way here myself. If I want to run away, I wouldn\u2019t have come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are Gloria! You work for Mr. Shaw!\u201d Sam yelled, \u201cIt\u2019s none of your business at all. Why would you come here to die for this nasty woman? Don\u2019t blame me then!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHeh, it\u2019s so nice of you. You are just concerned that I overheard your nasty story, that\u2019s why you want to kill me, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam\u2019s face was pale and red. He said, \u201cSince you two are going to the hell with me today, it\u2019s fine if you overheard it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re insane! The grudge of your family even implicates the others, and you are blaming everything on others so shamelessly!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI totally believe that Wallis is your daughter!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt that time, she wanted to make Grace lose her virginity, but it backfired and harmed herself instead. Today you want to blame Grace again for your murder\u2026 Even you and Wallis are not biologically related, but I feel like you two are more related than you thought! Both selfish and cold-blooded!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShut up!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy should I? If you can do it, then I can also talk about it. Heh.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gloria\u2019s radical speech reproached Sam bitterly. Grace calmed herself down gradually\u2026 As if she thought of something, Grace looked at Gloria, who kept stimulating Sam\u2014 Gloria was buying time!<\/p>\n<p>Grace\u2019s gaze moved to the iron gate\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Inside the car, Caden received the message sent by Gloria and he hurriedly opened it. A location popped out of the screen, his heart shrank instantly. The ominous feeling grew stronger and stronger!<\/p>\n<p>There wasn\u2019t a single word except the location\u2026 The two women were in a bad situation.<\/p>\n<p>Ticktock, ticktock\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The warm liquid dripped down onto Grace\u2019s face, she didn\u2019t feel the pain on her neck that she was supposed to feel. She opened her eyes with confusion\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The next second!<\/p>\n<p>Crack! She was so agitated that she clenched her teeth tightly!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHolding the knife with your hand\u2026 Doesn\u2019t it hurt?\u201d Grace stared dazedly at the hand that grabbed the sharp knife for her, with the blood dripping onto her face.<\/p>\n<p>Caden looked pale, biting his thin lips heavily, his dark pupils gazed at Grace for a while until he reassured himself that the woman in front of him was indeed in one piece. He finally felt relived in his heart.<\/p>\n<p>He turned his head around, glaring coldly at Sam, who looked pale. Before even yelling at Sam, the latter was already pale, voice came out of his dark lips,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have to revenge for Wallis! Why can she live on while Wallis died because of her!\u201d The stubborn old butler shouted angrily, his eyes were full of hatred for Grace, who was lying on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Gloria couldn\u2019t believe that someone could be so shameless even at a time and situation like this!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWallis\u2019s death was not\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before Gloria finished her words, Sam shouted madly in a louder voice: \u201cMr. Shaw, a life for a life! I feel sad for Wallis\u2019 tragic death! Sir, you told me that you would seek justice for Wallis\u2019 death! You can forget about what you said, but I, as a father, would never forget! If you can\u2019t do it, I will do it myself!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gloria was so burned up Sam. She couldn\u2019t imagine the existence of such an unreasonable person!<\/p>\n<p>Are the old turning bad? Or the bad turning old?<\/p>\n<p>She opened her mouth and was about to tell what she just heard, but Grace shook her head. Though Gloria didn\u2019t understand, she still chose to stay quiet temporarily.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCaden, if I tell you that Wallis would be raped because of her own deeds, and her death was\u2026\u201d Grace suddenly raised her head and looked at Caden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShut up!\u201d Sam cursed before she finished speaking: \u201cHow dare you say that!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou shut up!\u201d Caden yelled at Sam coldly, then turning to Grace again: \u201cyou, continue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t frame Wallis to death. She was suffocated to death by Sam.\u201d As she said, she raised her head, asking Caden seriously: \u201cWill you believe me? Will you believe that I am innocent?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her eyes turned to Caden\u2019s bloody hand\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1404","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1404","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=1404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
