Chapter 267
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 267<\/p>\n
In the busiest and most extravagant shopping mall of S City, a woman was standing in the most luxurious shop. She said, \u201cI want a gown.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shopping guides of such luxurious shops were good at judging people. As she stumbled in, everyone could see that she was lame. But she strived to make her back straight, which made her even more awkward.<\/p>\n
At first glance, she didn\u2019t wear any clothes of topnotch brands. Everything she wore were just ordinary items.<\/p>\n
Tall and slim, the shopping guide refused to take a step forward. Since the woman wanted a gown, she just pointed to a row of clothes in the corner with her slender finger. She said, \u201cOver there. They are on 70% discount.\u201d<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t even bother to move.<\/p>\n
However, she tensed up at the next second. The cripple was glaring at her with a very cold gaze.<\/p>\n
Quietly gazing at the shopping guide, Grace didn\u2019t make a flicker of accusation or show a glimmer of anger at all.<\/p>\n
At this moment, her heart was full of holes. Nothing could be put into and nothing could be leaked out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want a gown.\u201d She just gazed at the shopping guide calmly with her eyes blank and scary.<\/p>\n
This time, she was finally treated fairly.<\/p>\n
\u201cLady, what kind of gown would you like?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBlack, solemn, dignified.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c…\u201d Eccentric requested. Of course, they had black gowns, but every woman bought the black gowns for their desire of looking mysterious and sexy.<\/p>\n
Solemn?<\/p>\n
Dignified?<\/p>\n
Wasn\u2019t that a mourning?<\/p>\n
\u201cI want, the best looking one,\u201d Grace paused for a moment with her blank eyes slightly lit up. She gazed at the shopping guide. \u201cI want him to be amazed at the first glance and then he won\u2019t take his gaze away from me anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
The shopping guide wore a funny look.<\/p>\n
Black, solemn, dignified \u2026 This request was eccentric enough.<\/p>\n
And amazing? So amazing that make others unable to take their gazes away?<\/p>\n
\u201cFollow her request.\u201d At the door, Vivian panted heavily. She had chased after Grace. The high heels were almost broken, but she didn\u2019t care about them. She took out the Black Card and handed it to the shopping guide. \u201cFollow her request. Black, solemn, dignified and amazing enough.\u201d<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t continue.<\/p>\n
She could realize the madness of Grace more than anyone else.<\/p>\n
The shopping guide didn\u2019t know Grace, but she knew Vivian. Vivian was a senior member of this shop and her monthly consumption was up to millions.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t dare to offend such an important customer.<\/p>\n
She wanted to ask about the identity of the lame woman, but she saw Vivian, who was very distinguished for her, was still respectful to that woman.<\/p>\n
The shopping guide came back soon with another man. \u201cMs. Vivian, the designer of our brand happened to inspect the shop today. This is actually a once-in-a-few-year chance.<\/p>\n
According to this lady\u2019s request, I was unable to find a suitable black gown. Maybe he could modify the gown on the spot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Vivian nodded. \u201cThat would be great.\u201d She looked at the foreign man and said, \u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n
No need to explain more. The work was carried out in silence.<\/p>\n
The foreign designer seemed to have understood what Grace wanted.<\/p>\n
His hands were steady and fast.<\/p>\n
After picking a black gown for Grace, he just began to modify it as Grace wore it.<\/p>\n
Everything was in accord with Grace\u2019s request, the eccentric and contradictory request.<\/p>\n
Black, solemn, dignified and so amazing that no one could take their gazes away.<\/p>\n
Yes, this gown was so contradictory that no one dared to wear it.<\/p>\n
\u201cMadam, would you mind a backless one?\u201d<\/p>\n
The designer asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cWill it make me solemn, dignified and amazing?\u201d asked Grace.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, ma\u2019am.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rough, hoarse, like the sound of a rusty axle.<\/p>\n
Everyone knew that her throat had hurt before, but they still didn\u2019t expect that her voice was hoarse and rough like this.<\/p>\n
It was like two pieces of rough sandpaper rubbing each other.<\/p>\n
Almost everyone couldn\u2019t help but feel their own throats aching and itching.<\/p>\n
Ingemar gently pinched his throat with his slender fingers.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong?\u201d Knitting his eyebrows, he asked with slight dissatisfaction.<\/p>\n
There were so many people watching her who was standing at the door to see what vital matter she had at this critical moment.<\/p>\n
The woman, however, looked as if no one else was around. She just took out the puff cake and pocket mirror to refine her make-up under the watchful eyes of the public.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt this moment, are you still in the mood to make up?\u201d Ingemar sneered. He had been disgruntled at her for a long while.<\/p>\n
However, he just refrained from losing temper.<\/p>\n
Ignoring his discontentment, she was carefully rouging on her lips. She was very slow and calm that whoever saw her would regard her cold and indifferent.<\/p>\n
\u201cEnough!\u201d Ingemar shouted.<\/p>\n
But the woman turned around and asked him, \u201cAm I pretty?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t \u2026\u201d Pass the line so far!<\/p>\n
\u201cIf he sees me, he should be unable to take his gaze away.\u201d Before Ingemar finished his words, she said to herself with her head slightly lowered.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, his throat choked and something sour passed through his heart.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes,\u201d after a while, he said, gently and softly, \u201cGo in. He\u2019ll be glad to know you\u2019ve dressed up for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOK.\u201d<\/p>\n
The door opened, and the well-dressed woman stood at the door.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1472","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1472","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=1472"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
