Chapter 207
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 207<\/p>\n
It was clearly words trying to annoy Caden. Caden stood on the stairs, his black eyes landed upon the man who was mocking, yet, he said nothing.<\/p>\n
The atmosphere was strangely silent, as though there was a storm incoming.<\/p>\n
The butler had the urge to run away, but his feet were heavy, as if a nail on his feet, making him unable to lift them up.<\/p>\n
He blamed Franklin\u2019s rudeness as a guest in his heart. At a sensitive time like this, he had never seen someone pick the time specially to provoke.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere is the joke? The Shaw family is still here, the S City trembled when the Shaw family stomped.\u201d<\/p>\n
Franklin ridiculed even more: \u201cYou are right. As long the Shaw family is not fallen, you guys are still the leader in the city. Not to mention stomping, even a sneeze can shake the entire S city.\u201d He bent his lips provocatively, \u201cBut you, Caden Shaw, can\u2019t even keep your wife with you! Hahaha, allow me to laugh for a while. The resolute and cold Master Shaw can\u2019t even keep his wife, who\u2019s not seeing you as a joke in the entire S City?\u201d<\/p>\n
The butler almost stepped forth and covered Franklin\u2019s provoking mouth.<\/p>\n
The atmosphere was even more silent, one could even hear the sound of needle dropping to the ground!<\/p>\n
Franklin\u2019s smile was unspeakably annoying. Even the butler, who wasn\u2019t the one to be mocked, had the impulse to punch this guy in the face. The butler peeked at the man on the stairs carefully, saying in his heart: It wasn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n
While the atmosphere was tense, a light laughter surprised everyone in the house. Franklin looked toward the source of the laughter, surprise was unfolded between his brows\u2026 Was he still in his dream or were his eyes blurred? Caden could still laugh at a time like this?<\/p>\n
Shouldn\u2019t this guy punch him in rage?<\/p>\n
Shouldn\u2019t they pick a fight without hesitation?<\/p>\n
But\u2026 a laugh?<\/p>\n
Was Caden so mad that he already lost his sanity?<\/p>\n
\u201cIndeed, you should see my embarrassment. You\u2019re right, I can\u2019t keep the person that I like.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026\u201d Did he really lose his mind?! \u2026 After hearing Caden\u2019s sudden words, Franklin was completely shocked to unconscious\u2026 He was here to see Caden\u2019s embarrassment, but not a Caden like this!<\/p>\n
\u201cThe entire S City is waiting for me to be embarrassed, isn\u2019t it? They should! The person I like have been alongside with me for a long long time, but I destroyed the future she was supposed to have with my own hands.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this world, the saddest thing is not \u2018never own it\u2019, but \u2018should have owned it\u2019\u2026 Who is more stupid than me in this world?\u201d<\/p>\n
The man on the stairs mocked himself. His sadness was so depressed that it became suffocating.<\/p>\n
Franklin went silent, all his mocking and self-content disappeared to nowhere, \u201cIt\u2019s not only you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Only three simple words, but immense regrets also hidden within.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not the only one who is stupid.\u201d He was also one!<\/p>\n
Franklin turned around, and looked at the butler: \u201cSorry to bother you, could you help me fetch the thing at the back of the car?\u201d With that, the car key was thrown to the butler\u2019s palms.<\/p>\n
After a while, the butler came back with a rectangular wooden box: \u201cMr. Cordon, is that it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJust give it to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Franklin took over the wooden box, opened it adeptly, holding up the bottle from the wooden box: \u201cHey, Caden Shaw. Have a drink?\u201d He laughed bitterly as he said: \u201cI wasn\u2019t here to laugh at you.\u201d Laughed at Caden? What position did he hold? Wasn\u2019t he another joke?<\/p>\n
Franklin was angry for no reason, \u201cShe has already left! You couldn\u2019t find her! This country is so large, what can you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWherever I can reach with my feet, I will visit one by one with the rest of my life until the day I can\u2019t walk anymore.\u201d His black eyes looked even deeper, staring in the face of Franklin.<\/p>\n
Franklin\u2019s face suddenly went pale!<\/p>\n
He stared at the man on the stairs for a long time, and suddenly laughed tragically, \u201cYou will definitely fail!\u201d<\/p>\n
Caden didn\u2019t care, he said to the butler coldly, \u201cSee off the guest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Franklin looked pale, with his head lowered and eyes on the ground. Under the butler\u2019s \u201cpolite\u201d gaze, Franklin walked outside. Right before he moved out of Caden\u2019s sight, the man on the stairs suddenly said, \u201cFrank, there is something you don\u2019t understand. Because she is my wife, not yours; because she left and hide herself from me, not you, our choices will be so different as a result.\u201d<\/p>\n
After saying that, he turned and walked upstairs without paying attention to Franklin.<\/p>\n
Franklin\u2019s body shook and sat in the driver\u2019s seat in the car. His expression remained in a trance\u2026 Because they were different, their choices were different accordingly\u2026 Hehehe\u2026<\/p>\n
He closed his eyes, tears streamed out of his eyes. Was Grace doing that because of this? So, in this story, it had always been only Caden and Grace, without Franklin, was that it?<\/p>\n
He then opened his eyes, watching the red wine in his hand, eyes revealed a trace of ridicule: \u201cWhat am I here for today?\u201d At the beginning, he said he was here to laugh at Caden Shaw. Then, he said he was here as a fellow sufferer, they were both wrong. He was there to get drunk with Caden.<\/p>\n
But now?<\/p>\n
Franklin looked at the bottle in his hand in a trance\u2026 He asked himself, what was he here for today?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1412","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1412","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=1412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
