Chapter 305
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 305<\/p>\n
The meeting lasted for nearly an hour.<\/p>\n
All along, Cayne stayed at the corner of the bar, drinking and chatting with the Secretary-General.<\/p>\n
It was not until Grace walked out of the door that the man elegantly put down the cup in his hand and stood up.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s go. We\u2019ve been in the plane and haven\u2019t rested. Are you tired? Let me take you back to your room.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCayne, wait a moment. Long time no see. Don\u2019t you want to have a drink with me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Miffel leaned against the door and looked at him with a smile.<\/p>\n
When Grace heard this, she became relaxed. \u201cIn that case, I won\u2019t disturb you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her reaction was keenly captured by Cayne. The light in his deep pupils dimmed slightly. He was smart, so he knew what to do next. And he didn\u2019t insist on sending Grace away.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d the man tilted his head and said to Miffel, who was leaning against the door. \u201cIt\u2019s just that it\u2019s late at night. A gentleman shouldn\u2019t let a woman leave alone.\u201d As he said that, he glanced at the secretary-general and hinted, \u201cDo you want your secretary-general to make another trip?\u201d<\/p>\n
Miffel was very tactful and said to the secretary-general, \u201cTake this lady back to her room and make sure her safety.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, sir.\u201d<\/p>\n
After he left, there were only two outstanding men in the large reception room.<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that her? You owe me a favor to let me fly here?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIs she important?\u201d Miffel walked elegantly to the bar and poured another glass of whiskey. \u201cAnother glass?\u201d He raised his glass at Cayne and signaled.<\/p>\n
\u201cI desperately want to get her. And I also want to hide her from others.\u201d Whether it was important or not, he didn\u2019t know. \u201cLeon wanted me to ask you if that person is alright.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLeon?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHuh. It\u2019s been so many years, but he still didn\u2019t let it be.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI used to think that only Asians would be so conflicted.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut now when I see you, I know that you\u2019re finished.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you and Leon so self-righteous?\u201d Cayne chuckled without further explanation.<\/p>\n
Miffel had the glass of wine, \u201cShe\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know. She\u2019s always been great.\u201d Speaking of Grace, Cayne was pride. It was as if his things had been praised.<\/p>\n
\u201cHer negotiating skills are amazing. God, who did she learn from?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the person who taught her such excellent negotiation skills must be very powerful.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou seldom think so highly of anyone, Miffel. I only warn you once. Stay away from her.\u201d Cayne\u2019s gaze darkened.<\/p>\n
Miffel\u2019s lips twitched. \u201cYou\u2019re really done, Cayne. Well, are you Hunter I know?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has nothing to do with you. You just need to remember that you must stay away from her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Miffel couldn\u2019t help but roll his eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just admire her negotiating skills.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI have met many experts in negotiation at home and abroad.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn terms of negotiation skills from a technical point of view, she is still immature.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI say that she is skilled in negotiation because she has skills and sincerity at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe said her intentions to work together as well as the shortcomings. But she also said that she was determined and able to handle every detail even with these shortcomings. I like her sincerity and confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere were many partners who just reported us good news instead of bad news. Her frankness, confidence, honesty, analysis are persuasive. And it is easy for people to calm down and listen to her opinions.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSure enough, Cayne. Well done, Hunter.\u201d<\/p>\n
For some reason, the name Hunter had once made Cayne feel honored. Today, it sounded worse. For no reason, he was distracted. He touched his head. Cayne was inexplicably irritated. He picked up the wine in front of him and drank it abruptly.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf possible, I just want to be her Hunter.\u201d In the midst of his irritation, he didn\u2019t think too much about it and admitted directly. He quickly spoke out of his inexplicable irritation.<\/p>\n
He turned around and strode away.<\/p>\n
Miffel stared blankly at the figure that had left in a hurry… \u201cGood!\u201d<\/p>\n
Did all of them go crazy?<\/p>\n
Even though he knew it was dangerous, he still fell into it happily?<\/p>\n
No, no, no, no. He was not going to be like these two people.<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Grace\u2019s cell phone had been muted when she learned that she was going to meet Miffel, the top in the industry.<\/p>\n
When she returned to the guest room, she sat on the bed wrapped in a towel after a shower. The screen on the bedside table lit up. Only then did she remember that her phone had been muted.<\/p>\n
She picked it up and hesitated when she saw Vivian\u2019s name.<\/p>\n
\u201cHello?\u201d In the end, she still pressed the answer button.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrace, why did you answer the phone? I called so many times that I couldn\u2019t contact with you. I almost called the police.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the other end of the phone, Vivian hurriedly said while Grace apologized hurriedly, \u201cDon\u2019t be angry. I just had something important.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is the important thing? You don\u2019t even have time to make a phone call.\u201d Grace understood her. Vivian looked smart and capable, but in fact, she was scary when she got angry. Grace knew that she was in the wrong and hurriedly mentioned Miffel.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiffel. I met Miffel.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the other side of the phone, there was instantly silence. One second, two seconds, three seconds… Grace counted silently.<\/p>\n
\u201cMiffel? Miffel of the Domen Group?\u201d<\/p>\n
Screaming excitedly came from the microphone. Grace immediately moved her phone far away from her ear. \u201cBe quiet. I\u2019m going to be deaf.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry about that. Tell me, you mean the Miffel from the Domen Group in France?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou meet Miffel?<\/p>\n
Is he handsome?<\/p>\n
Did you guys talk?<\/p>\n
What did he say?<\/p>\n
Does he know the James Group?<\/p>\n
Did you guys talk about the cooperation?<\/p>\n
Did he agree?\u201d<\/p>\n
Vivian had just finished asking a question and Grace was about to answer. But she was stopped by a series of questions on the phone.<\/p>\n
She had no choice but to stop.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs for the cooperation, I want to try. Vivian, Miffel seems to be very interested in my proposal. As for the project we discussed privately, I think you might have to work overtime tonight to sort out the information and send it to my email.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI must seize the time to come up with a plan.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cRight, right, right! Strike while the iron is hot! President James, don\u2019t worry. I\u2019ll sort out the information into a document tonight and send it to your email.\u201d<\/p>\n
Grace slightly frowned. As for Vivian, when she was angry, she always called Grace intimately. But when she encountered something at work, she immediately called her President Grace.<\/p>\n
Naturally, this kind of standpoint and attitude towards work could not be better.<\/p>\n
Vivian no longer called her. Instead, they contacted through WeChat. Every day, she said that everything was fine.<\/p>\n
It was both expected and unexpected to take down the cooperation with Miffel. When they signed, Grace suddenly became happy. It seemed that the long-awaited matter had finally been completed.<\/p>\n
It was also at this moment that there was no reason for her to stay here anymore.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, Cayne.\u201d<\/p>\n
He really helped her a lot. If it weren\u2019t for Miffel, she would have made such progress.<\/p>\n
Without Cayne, there would be no chance of meeting Miffel.<\/p>\n
She bent down and bowed. Of course, this was definitely not enough, but it could show her gratitude.<\/p>\n
When she bent down, she was held by a powerful hand on her shoulder. She looked up in confusion.<\/p>\n
He only saw his handsome and resolute chin. He looked down and stared at her with a burning gaze. His voice was hoarse and confusing,<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGrace, I don\u2019t want the gratitude verbally.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know that you\u2019ve helped a lot. Of course, it\u2019s not enough. If I can…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShhhh.\u201d The man stopped her and squinted at her, \u201cGrace, if you really want to thank me, I just want you.\u201d<\/p>\n
What?<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t react for a long time. Only when she reacted did she realize the meaning of that sentence.<\/p>\n
Slowly, she straightened her back and pulled his palm. She turned around, and left without saying a word.<\/p>\n
The man was anxious and suddenly grabbed her arm. \u201cGrace, I\u2019m joking. Don\u2019t take it seriously…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that so?\u201d She was calm as she stared at him. \u201cIs it a joke? Are you sure?\u201d<\/p>\n
Were you sure? He became nervous!<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t lie any longer.<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t lie to himself.<\/p>\n
Were you kidding? Was it really a joke?<\/p>\n
The man clenched his teeth and said, \u201cSo what if it\u2019s not a joke?\u201d Wasn\u2019t he good enough? Couldn\u2019t he compare to Caden? He treated her much better than any other woman!<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not a joke…\u201d She smiled, but the smile was cold. She slowly looked at the man in front of her. \u201cThen what\u2019s the difference three years ago?\u201d<\/p>\n
What was the difference three years ago?<\/p>\n
The man\u2019s body stiffened by a single sentence. \u201cYes, I misunderstood you three years ago, but you\u2019re not what I thought. Now I know you better.\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman looked down and concealed the self-mockery in her eyes. He knew her better?<\/p>\n
She could no longer know herself.<\/p>\n
Three years ago, he used money to hunt for what you wanted. Three years later, he still used an opportunity to hunt for what he wanted.<\/p>\n
The only difference was that the money from back then had become an opportunity. If one had to say the difference between the two, then it was probably that this man had grown up and the games were not childish.<\/p>\n
Young and frivolous men liked to use money directly, while older men weren\u2019t so direct.<\/p>\n
But, was there a difference?<\/p>\n
In the end, she did not say these hurtful words. She only stared at the man\u2019s face.<\/p>\n
\u201cMoney that year, and opportunities today are the same. Cayne, you are an outstanding hunter. An outstanding hunter improves himself, but the hunter\u2019s goal is just to hunt the prey in his eyes.\u201d After saying this, she knew that he understood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1510","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1510","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=1510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
