Ingemar didn\u2019t say a word and just turned to get the medicine cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>He trusted Doctor Arn. He could infer that Caden must be seriously ill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFortunately, he didn\u2019t go into shock.\u201d Doctor Arn wiped the cold sweat off his head.<\/p>\n<p>Ingemar glanced at the quilt on the floor and stared at Grace for a while, but didn\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n<p>Although he didn\u2019t blame her, Grace turned her head guiltily.<\/p>\n<p>Ingemar and Doctor Arn were exhausted. It was impossible for them to stay here for long. Luckily, Caden\u2019s body temperature had dropped or he must be sent to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Both Ingemar and Grace panicked.<\/p>\n<p>Caden shouldn\u2019t be here in S City. Fortunately, he had always been extremely robust than ordinary people.<\/p>\n<p>His temperature had dropped to 101\u00b0F. At sunset, Grace sat by the side, checking Vivian\u2019s report. The cooperation with Cayne would not officially start until next week.<\/p>\n<p>Her phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace. Water &#8230;\u201d Caden murmured.<\/p>\n<p>Grace was taken aback and instinctively pressed the answer button.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHello?\u201d It was a low magnetic male voice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace &#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace hurriedly covered Caden\u2019s mouth.<\/p>\n<p>It was Cayne.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace? What\u2019s that noise?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNothing. I\u2019m watching TV. It\u2019s off now. Mr. Cayne, what\u2019s the matter?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was already dark. She could not think of anything urgent that required Cayne to call her personally at this point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI went to the James Group to see you. But Miss Vivian, your assistant said you were sick. Are you better now?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you for your concern, Mr. Cayne. I\u2019m much better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace lowered her eyes and asked, \u201cIs Mr. Cayne asking for my information from Vivian?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, I\u2019m worried about you.\u201d He didn\u2019t beat around the bush.<\/p>\n<p>It was his personality. Even though Grace didn\u2019t like what he did back then, she had to admit that Cayne had always kept his purpose in plain sight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActually,\u201d She thought for a few seconds, \u201cI wonder that could you tell me where you got the information of our group that day on the meeting?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many people of the group didn\u2019t know that their competitors already knew what Grace was hiding. There must be something wrong. She must find out why.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m just guessing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace fell silent. Obviously, Cayne would not tell the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Just guessing?<\/p>\n<p>Grace smiled sarcastically. He might be able to guess that something was wrong with the James Group.<\/p>\n<p>But he could not have guessed the details. It was not that simple.<\/p>\n<p>However, since Cayne was unwilling to admit, she would not be able to obtain any useful information as well.<\/p>\n<p>Grace had been ill since the cooperative meeting and this matter had been delayed. Now it was time to deal with it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace, a saying goes that businessmen value profits more than kindness. I am a businessman, but I have a bottom line.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI understand. Sorry, I shouldn\u2019t have asked.\u201d Grace did not blame Cayne. If Cayne really told the truth that easy, then she would have to reconsider their cooperation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace, the only thing I can tell you is to find the reason from the inside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace\u2019s face turned fierce.<\/p>\n<p>Find the reason from the inside!<\/p>\n<p>Of course she knew that.<\/p>\n<p>But Grace didn\u2019t know what to do. As long as she had a chance to meet Miffel, the James Group would be able to get rid of this crisis!<\/p>\n<p>Grace felt dizzy when she thought about it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright &#8230;\u201d However, Grace didn\u2019t have the chance to finish the sentence.<\/p>\n<p>Her hand, which was not holding the phone, was suddenly seized by someone. Grace looked down in a shock. It was a miserable but beautiful face. Caden was looking at her with his eyes clean and clear. Grace almost forgot how to breathe.<\/p>\n<p>It was a kind of total attachment to her.<\/p>\n<p>Caden couldn\u2019t lose Grace for just a second!<\/p>\n<p>Grace stared blankly and forgot that she was still on the phone.<\/p>\n<p>Caden put her hand on his cheek and gently rubbed against her palm like a baby.<\/p>\n<p>In an instant, Grace felt her hand burning like fire.<\/p>\n<p>She pulled back instinctively.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace?\u201d Cayne said on the phone, \u201cYou still there?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you for your kindness, Mr. Cayne.\u201d Grace closed her eyes and gripped the other hand tightly. A voice sounded in her heart, \u201cCaden is crazy!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace raised her phone and responded heavily, \u201cI\u2019m afraid I won\u2019t be able to see Mr. Miffel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The phone slipped to the ground, and Grace fell to the bed listless.<\/p>\n<p>That was the Domen Group! The best group ever! Grace must be mad to refuse! Her heart was trembling. As Grace lowered her eyes, she saw Caden\u2019s pale face. He was revealing a smile at her.<\/p>\n<p>Grace seemed to hear herself gnashing teeth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI must be out of my mind!\u201d Grace thought.<\/p>\n<p>She stood up abruptly with cold face and left. She returned with a glass of water and held it to Caden, \u201cDrink it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1487","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1487","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=1487"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
