Chapter 204
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 204<\/p>\n
Caden shouted, \u201cKirk.\u201d Kirk immediately took out a handful of money, about fifty thousand yuan, \u201cSir, this is the reward for your information. We are in a hurry, and didn\u2019t bring too much cash. Sorry about that.\u201d<\/p>\n
With that, he put the money into the driver\u2019s hand, who was already shocked. Kirk caught up with Caden and got in his car.<\/p>\n
\u201cMake a call to ask about the flight to Xiamen: whether there is only one flight at this time, and have the most recent one taken off yet.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo problem.\u201d<\/p>\n
After a while, Kirk answered, \u201cBoss, it just took off, what should we do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I am not mistaken, Mr. Chang had a private plane in Hangzhou?\u201d As he said, he started to call the \u201cMr. Chang\u201d that he just mentioned, trying to ask the latter about borrowing the plane.<\/p>\n
A layer of thin sweat permeated out from Gloria\u2019s forehead. Caden narrowed his eyes: \u201cGloria, are you feeling hot?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, a little bit. I am not very used to the weather in Hangzhou.\u201d Her answer was mediocre. Caden stared at her for a while, then moved his sight away.<\/p>\n
Nobody knew that the back of Gloria was already sticky due to the sweat.<\/p>\n
The private plane that Caden borrowed took off.<\/p>\n
He was on his way to Xiamen.<\/p>\n
Grace didn\u2019t take the plane to Xiamen. Instead, she changed direction in the airport and headed towards the city. She firstly registered for a bank card. Next, she went to a very high-end antique store, selling a diamond necklace and a jade from the iron box. As she saw the diamond necklace and that jade, she felt that life was really ironic.<\/p>\n
She was about to escape, but the money was the present that Caden gave her.<\/p>\n
The jewelries that Caden gave her were very expensive. That jade was worth more than three hundred thousand alone. She knew it, no mention the diamond necklace. Now the antique store deliberately forced down the price to a total of three hundred thousand for both the necklace and the jade.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis price can be used to bully those who know nothing about antiques. But I know this jade alone is worth more than three hundred thousand yuan.\u201d she said, but she was quick to continue, \u201cHowever, if you can give me three hundred thousand in cash right now, that would work too.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre they clean?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace understood. The buyer noticed her eagerness to sell those stuffs as soon as possible, and he was afraid that the cargoes were illegal.<\/p>\n
Grace took out the receipt from the iron box, \u201cI have the receipts.\u201d<\/p>\n
The buyer was relieved when he saw the receipts. As for the reason why Grace would sell those two items in such a low price. He wouldn\u2019t care as long as the cargoes were legal, he didn\u2019t care about other things. Therefore, he would not ask the reason, and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cGive me the receipts.\u201d With that, he called a servant to his side: \u201cGo prepare three hundred thousand cash.\u201d<\/p>\n
Working in this circle, sometimes they would need a large amount of cash. As a result, the safe in the finance office kept a lot of cash in case they needed any.<\/p>\n
\u201cMay I send someone to accompany you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace smiled faintly and looked at the buyer: \u201cNo, thanks.\u201d<\/p>\n
She held a black haversack, the very large ones were sold online. She put the three hundred thousand into the haversack so that it wouldn\u2019t attract others\u2019 attention.<\/p>\n
She went to the bank inconspicuously and stored the cash into her card, leaving only ten thousand as cash in till.<\/p>\n
To open a hotel sounded easy, but she had no idea how to accomplish this when she actually needed to do it. Luckily, she got a large amount of money by selling the jewelries.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want\u2026 I want to find a one that is not so popular. This was my first time to go to Erhai, do you know any?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cA not so popular one? You are special. Others are all heading to some sorts of ancient towns, but you are looking for a distant one. My family live next to Erhai, and we had a house that was inherited for many generations. Now it was changed to a hotel, why don\u2019t come to my family hotel if you haven\u2019t found one yet?\u201d<\/p>\n
Erhai was not an ocean, but this was the purest lake that Grace had ever seen in her life. The lake was so large that one couldn\u2019t see the ends of the lake.<\/p>\n
\u201cOpen the window.\u201d<\/p>\n
The car window was lowered, she stretched her hands out, only dared to stretch a little bit to feel the wind gliding through her fingertips\u2014 that was the feeling of freedom. Every time the wind passed through, it took away some warmth. The good and bad things that she had experienced were taken away bit by bit along with the wind.<\/p>\n
She told herself once: Everything was the past.<\/p>\n
This time, everything was really in the past.<\/p>\n
What she did not know was that during the days she left, someone was almost driven crazy. That person almost searched every corner of the S City, but couldn\u2019t find any trace.<\/p>\n
The Shaw family was like changing blood. Kirk knelt on the ground. He didn\u2019t know that some words were lethal to others; he didn\u2019t know that his explicit or implicit words were hurting that woman again and again in the past; he didn\u2019t know that he, who knew nothing about that woman, acted like everyone else, labeling many many scornful tags onto that traceless woman.<\/p>\n
But at the end\u2026 That woman was the most innocent one!<\/p>\n
\u201cI will give you a chance to explain.\u201d On the sofa of the living room, the man looked depressed, messy sideburns, and a chin full of moustache. He looked as if he had experienced a lot, but his eyes were so cold that it could freeze someone\u2019s bones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1409","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1409","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=1409"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
