Chapter 322
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 322<\/p>\n
Grace suddenly fainted, perhaps because she had become exhausted after experiencing so many things.<\/p>\n
In the apartment<\/p>\n
Humbert was packing his medicine kits. \u201cShe is fine. She just fainted from fatigue. However, her physical condition is too bad. When she wakes up, you must prepare nutritious food for her and let her take a good rest\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
As Humbert spoke, he paused for a moment and glanced at the woman on the bed. He curled his lips and said, \u201cShe shouldn\u2019t be in worry from now on. Just let her stay at home and have recuperation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Even if she could take enough rest, it was unknown whether she could fully recover or not.<\/p>\n
That was because she had been in poor health for so long.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn addition, I suggest that when she wakes up, you\u2019d better take her to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.<\/p>\n
After all, I don\u2019t have any medical equipment at hand right now. I\u2019m not sure how badly her body is injured.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s no exact data \u2026 As a doctor specializing in western medicine, I always need accurate data.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert packed up his medicine kits. Looking at the woman lying on the bed, Caden wore a distressed expression. He then reached out to tuck her in.<\/p>\n
He said in a low voice, \u201cLet\u2019s go to the living room and have a talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert secretly rolled his eyes as he looked at Caden\u2019s receding figure. He thought his friend was overacting. Truth to be told, even if a thunder came right now, Grace couldn\u2019t be woken up.<\/p>\n
However, he had no interest in arguing with Caden. He carried his medical kits and quickly followed him into the living room.<\/p>\n
Caden put a cup of tea on the table and then sat down. He leisurely crossed his slender legs.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince you\u2019re back, please help me with something.\u201d<\/p>\n
Out of surprise, Humbert looked up at Caden and patted his chest. \u201cDon\u2019t scare me. If you have something to say, just say it directly.\u201d<\/p>\n
They had known each other since childhood. For so many years, Caden rarely used the word \u201cplease\u201d to ask him for help.<\/p>\n
Humbert hoped he wouldn\u2019t ask him to do anything inappropriate.<\/p>\n
Just as this thought flashed his mind, Caden\u2019s deep voice sounded.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you know that she\u2019s lying to me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAh?\u201d<\/p>\n
Caden lowered his eyes and said, \u201cShe said she wanted time to be alone. She\u2019s lying to me.<\/p>\n
She went to donate bone marrow to Payne without telling me.\u201d<\/p>\n
As he said that, he handed Humbert a document. \u201cShe even signed the bone marrow donation form.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert picked up the document and looked at it. After a moment of silence, he said, \u201cSince you were able to obtain this document, her plan didn\u2019t succeed, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTo be honest, I don\u2019t want to care about Payne, Jafar, or any other person from the James family.<\/p>\n
I have long known that the bone marrow of Jafar\u2019s illegitimate child matches that of Payne.<\/p>\n
Jafar and his mistress secretly made a fake report. They just didn\u2019t want Ollie to donate bone marrow to Payne.<\/p>\n
I saw all the despicable things that they have done.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSince you\u2019ve already investigated everything, why didn\u2019t you tell your wife earlier? If you had told her, she wouldn\u2019t have signed this donation form.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI saw that she didn\u2019t care about her relatives except for Master James. Since that was the case, I didn\u2019t want to interfere in her personal affairs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert remained silent. He knew that Caden was a cold-blooded person.<\/p>\n
There weren\u2019t many people and things in this world that could make him worried.<\/p>\n
Apart from Ingemar and him, the only person he cared about was Grace.<\/p>\n
Humbert was sure that even if all of Grace\u2019s relatives died, Caden would turn a blind eye as long as Grace was not sad. Even if he knew that Payne could be saved, he would still watch him die without showing any sympathy.<\/p>\n
Then Caden took out a mobile phone and said self-mockingly, \u201cLook at this phone number.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert took his phone and felt that the number looked familiar. He couldn\u2019t recall where he had seen it before, so he asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s this?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis number has no caller ID. Grace took the initiative to dial this number after she left the Shaw Group that day.<\/p>\n
\u201cI found it strange, so I let someone investigate it. Guess whose number it is?\u201d<\/p>\n
Three years later, she wants to escape again. This time, she is prepared to risk her life.\u201d<\/p>\n
As Caden spoke, he wore a bitter smile.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know I was wrong \u2026 I just want to be together with her forever, but she makes every effort to escape from me.<\/p>\n
Humbert, on the day of her bat mitzvah, I never thought that I would love her so badly.<\/p>\n
If I had known it, I would have carried her on my shoulders and thrown her onto my bed after she confessed to me boldly on her eighteenth birthday. In that case, I would never let her leave me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert listened without saying anything. As an outsider, he felt pity for his friend. It shocked him when Caden said that he knew he was wrong \u2026 After all, Caden had always been a proud man.<\/p>\n
This meant that he was really in despair now.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf things had gone that way, then \u2026 our children would be in primary school now.\u201d<\/p>\n
As Humbert listened, he felt that Caden\u2019s words were like boiling oil, which was poured onto his heart, making him feel extremely distressed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can have a drink with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to drink. She\u2019ll be hungry after waking up.\u201d As Caden spoke, he stood up and found the refrigerator. Then he took out some vegetables.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will cook porridge for her, for she can only eat soft foods now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Just as he put the vegetables on the table, he suddenly stopped and looked at the trash can filled with rubbish.<\/p>\n
After looking at it for a while, he squatted down and took the items out of the trash can one by one.<\/p>\n
When looking at Caden washing the couple\u2019s cups silently at the sink, Humbert couldn\u2019t help but sigh.<\/p>\n
After putting everything back in place, Caden returned to the living room and said, \u201cJafar\u2019s mistress has already signed the bone marrow donation agreement. Humbert, please … take good care of Payne.\u201d<\/p>\n
Humbert looked at him. He understood that Caden paid attention to everything Grace cared about.<\/p>\n
As for the bone marrow transplantation, the most important thing was that Payne must enter the sterile room one month after the operation. Caden was afraid that if something bad happened to Payne after the operation, Grace would be sad.<\/p>\n
\u201cOK. I will follow him into the sterile room,\u201d answered Humbert.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1527","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1527","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=1527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
