Chapter 290
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 290<\/p>\n
Was it enough?<\/p>\n
Gloria opened her mouth but couldn\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n
Grace still felt painful. Others said that it was over. It was all over. Why she you still hold a grudge?<\/p>\n
Just like those families hiding under the neon light, there were many stories of many families under the thousands of lights.<\/p>\n
Usually, the one who was betrayed and bullied would be forced to forgive the sinner.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, I\u2019ve already apologized. Why do you still hate me? You are vengeful. You are stingy, and you are not generous at all.\u201d<\/p>\n
And then the onlookers who thought themselves as righteous would say, \u201cHe apologized. What else do you want? Can\u2019t you just be nice?<\/p>\n
Only those who had experienced those pains would be able to understand this feeling.<\/p>\n
Gloria looked at Grace who was in pain. She wanted the foolish girl in front of her to be happy.<\/p>\n
But Grace was not really foolish. She was sober and more determined than anyone else. Otherwise, Gloria could not imagine what would she react after falling from heaven to hell, and being hated by everyone all of a sudden.<\/p>\n
After experiencing all those things, how many people could continue living without changing their original minds?<\/p>\n
Even Gloria herself … She picked up the glass of wine and took a deep sip.<\/p>\n
She herself changed, too.<\/p>\n
Grace picked up her bag. When she left, she took another deep look at Gloria and said, \u201cGloria, who in this world really knows you?\u201d<\/p>\n
The question was confusing.<\/p>\n
Gloria was puzzled. \u201cYou \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this world, you may not even know yourself.\u201d Gloria looked at the woman standing at the door. Grace told her calmly, \u201cGloria, your boss thought he understood me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gloria opened her mouth, but didn\u2019t say anything. Why did she feel that the topic was getting more and more confusing? She somehow felt strange and uneasy.<\/p>\n
She looked at the door and saw Grace smiling. Grace said, \u201cHe was wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
The door opened and closed. In the room, only Gloria was left standing beside the table, her heart beating fast. There was still the fragrance of tea in the air. Apart from that, there seemed to be no trace of Grace\u2019s previous visit.<\/p>\n
After Grace left, Gloria still obsessed with what Grace had said for a long time. She stood quietly, pondering over every word that Grace said when she left.<\/p>\n
She felt that that foolish girl had decided something a long time ago.<\/p>\n
Grace walked out of the club and the night wind blew on her body. She tightened her coat and shook a little bit. She looked up at the sky and said softly, \u201cIt\u2019s really cold.\u201d<\/p>\n
The doorman got her the car.<\/p>\n
\u201cLeave it there.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, Miss James.\u201d<\/p>\n
She stopped the doorman who was about to leave, and said, \u201cWait a minute, drive the car to the parking lot.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen how do you get home?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to drive tonight. I\u2019ll pick it up tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, just a moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
The doorman parked the car and returned the car key to Grace.<\/p>\n
It had been a long time since she took the subway or the bus.<\/p>\n
Tonight, she really wanted to take the subway or the bus.<\/p>\n
The watch showed that it was half past eight. The night was approaching but it was still crowded on the street.<\/p>\n
Crowds of people came and went, and she could hear the sound of footsteps and conversations.<\/p>\n
Her eyes were filled with envy.<\/p>\n
The subway and the bus did not drive away the loneliness in her heart, and she was still alone.<\/p>\n
Still, her heart was fraught with worries.<\/p>\n
Still, she couldn\u2019t escape from this damn cage in her heart.<\/p>\n
After walking for a while, her legs started to be painful.<\/p>\n
Cold wind whistled past behind her, and with a piercing sound, a black Maybach stopped next to her abruptly.<\/p>\n
She frowned. How could someone drive like that?<\/p>\n
The car door opened.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss James, please come with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s getting dark. Can you see anything wearing sunglasses?\u201d she said coldly.<\/p>\n
The man chuckled. \u201cIt is enough to see Miss James.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat if I say I won\u2019t go?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen I\u2019ll have to make you go with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace looked coldly at that person. \u201cKirk, what will happen to a traitor according to the Shaw\u2019s family instruction?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMiss James, speaking of that, you are a James. At least I am a Shaw.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace laughed mockingly and looked at him. \u201cKirk, who are you working for now?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am a Shaw, so I naturally work for the Shaw family. Why would Miss James ask this question?\u201d Kirk became impatient. \u201cI\u2019m just doing my job. Grace, think about it clearly. Do you want to get in the car yourself, or do you want us to make you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s hands sweated slightly. She pretended to be calm and said, \u201cAlright, I\u2019ll go with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
She sat quietly in the Maybach and looked out of the window. The building she lived in was not far away. She could see the brightly lit window from the car.<\/p>\n
The car door closed and Kirk sat in the passenger seat. \u201cMiss James, we meet again.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, we meet again. But you are already someone else\u2019s dog.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kirk seemed to be enraged. \u201cWho made me do so? Grace, no matter how I am, I am better than a vicious murderer like you!\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s lips twitched, not making any excuses. Kirk knew well if she was a murderer or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1495","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1495","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=1495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
