Chapter 330
\nI’ve Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 330<\/p>\n
In the hospital, the door to the ward was quietly opened. This time, Ladd didn\u2019t tell Caden.<\/p>\n
When Humbert hurried over, he saw that woman.<\/p>\n
Without saying anything, Humbert was pulled by Gloria into the corridor. The door opened and closed.<\/p>\n
The man in the bed fell asleep on his side.<\/p>\n
It was unknown what he was dreaming of, but his tight eyebrows implied he wasn\u2019t sleeping peacefully.<\/p>\n
His hand resting on the quilt was wearing a wedding ring.<\/p>\n
The woman slowly approached and stopped in front of the man\u2019s bed.<\/p>\n
Her clear eyes stared at the ring on the man\u2019s finger.<\/p>\n
It was also unknown what she was thinking.<\/p>\n
She stared at the ring for a long time until she was lost in thought.<\/p>\n
After a long while, the man opened his eyes and saw the person in his dream.<\/p>\n
He smiled at her with his pale face and said, \u201cI\u2019m dreaming again.\u201d<\/p>\n
He spoke to her in a gentle tone as if she was a friend whom he hadn\u2019t met for years. \u201cIt\u2019s good that you\u2019re willing to come into my dream.\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman stood beside the bed in a trance. Her gaze slowly shifted to that person\u2019s face. It had been only a month and he was already so thin.<\/p>\n
Perhaps it was because of his words or because of the gentleness and attachment in his eyes that she had never seen before.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t want to think about how she could show that she hated him.<\/p>\n
She just followed her heart, bent down, and kissed his forehead warmly. \u201cIs it a dream?\u201d<\/p>\n
She asked.<\/p>\n
The man\u2019s eyes were filled with surprise and joy. He curled his lips and said, \u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
She chuckled as if she had forgotten the love and hatred between them, and forgotten all the hardships she had experienced. Like a good friend, she reached out and twisted her fingers on his arm. \u201cIs it a dream?\u201d<\/p>\n
The man woke up due to the sudden pain. He was pleasantly surprised. He dared not believe it or close his eyes. He was afraid that if he closed his eyes and opened them again, she would disappear.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt hurts, but not very real. Try again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
She picked up an apple from the side and peeled it quietly. Not long after, the peeled apple was passed to the man.<\/p>\n
The apple in front of him emitted its scent. In the man\u2019s deep eyes, all these seemed so unreal. He didn\u2019t dare to take it.<\/p>\n
Who knew whether the apple would disappear if he took the apple?<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen is your surgery?\u201d She did not pester him, holding the peeled apple in her hand.<\/p>\n
The man was alert. A trace of nervousness flashed on his face. \u201cWho told you that?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTomorrow or the day after tomorrow?\u201d She asked, ignoring his words.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe day after tomorrow.\u201d He stared at her. She was more stubborn than him. She wouldn\u2019t give up until she got an answer.<\/p>\n
The woman nodded and pushed the apple to his front. \u201cDon\u2019t you want to eat it? I peeled it.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said.<\/p>\n
The man\u2019s heart was warmed up when he heard she peeled it. He had never been weak, but now his eyes felt sour. His eyelids were red. He blinked his eyes and took the apple.<\/p>\n
Bite by bite, he seemed not eating an apple, but nectar.<\/p>\n
Every bite was sweet.<\/p>\n
His mind was in a daze and he couldn\u2019t guess her purpose.<\/p>\n
He ate the apple bite by bite, and she quietly peeled another one for him.<\/p>\n
After he finished eating, the second apple was peeled and handed to him.<\/p>\n
The man didn\u2019t say anything, took it and began eating.<\/p>\n
The second, the third \u2026 until the fifth. He looked at the apple in his hand and was embarrassed. Even if he liked apples, he couldn\u2019t eat so many at once. Moreover, he didn\u2019t like apples.<\/p>\n
\u201cEat more, or you won\u2019t have the strength,\u201d the woman said.<\/p>\n
His mind was full of questions. No strength? What strength?<\/p>\n
He was still desperately using his wisdom to think about her words when the woman beside the bed said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you sure you don\u2019t want more? Are you full?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m full.\u201d<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t understand what she meant. Why did he have to eat apples till he was full?<\/p>\n
He was puzzled.<\/p>\n
However, the woman turned around and walked toward the door.<\/p>\n
A huge sense of loss filled his heart.<\/p>\n
He wanted to stop her, but didn\u2019t \u2026 God knows what would happen after the surgery the day after tomorrow.<\/p>\n
He wanted to give her the whole world and happiness, and wanted to accompany her for the rest of his life \u2026 At this moment, they had become an empty wish.<\/p>\n
Who knew if he would be dead or alive the day after tomorrow?<\/p>\n
As for why she would appear by his bed late at night \u2026 Forget it, let her go.<\/p>\n
There came the sound of locking the door in the cold ward.<\/p>\n
He watched her return and said, \u201cYou \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman stood in front of his bed, looking at him quietly for a while. It was rare that a grown man like him would blush like this. \u201cI know you hate me. Even if you want me to die, I\u2019ll do it as long as you\u2019re happy.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I don\u2019t want your hands dirty. Why don\u2019t you wait until my surgery the day after tomorrow?<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry, the success rate of the surgery is negligible. I\u2019ll pay you back what I owe sooner or later.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust don\u2019t get your hands dirty. Even if you don\u2019t care, I do. \u201c<\/p>\n
He heard she bought a flight ticket, but she came back late at night, appeared in his ward, and locked the door \u2026 That\u2019s right, he owed her too much and hurt her too much. It was natural for her to hate him and want him dead.<\/p>\n
However, she didn\u2019t have to do it herself.<\/p>\n
The woman looked at the man chattering in the bed. In the next second, she reached out to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cReally, don\u2019t get your hands dirty for me \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Before the word \u201cme\u201d could fall, the quilt on him was lifted and a thin body came in.<\/p>\n
Instantly, a warm and fragrant body was beside him.<\/p>\n
He was stunned, not sure what to do.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou, I \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
She unbuttoned his clothes, rolled over, and sat on his body in a bullying posture.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou, you \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
The buttons snapped open. She bent over and kissed him on the lips.<\/p>\n
If he could endure this, he wouldn\u2019t be a man!<\/p>\n
His mind was empty and he had no idea what she was doing.<\/p>\n
However, his body had already responded honestly. He grasped her slender waist with his big palms, raised his head, and kissed her back passionately.<\/p>\n
Outside the door, Ladd heard the door locked. He was extremely nervous and reached out to knock on the door.<\/p>\n
He was stopped by Gloria.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe door is locked. What if madam did something to our boss?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou said what if.\u201d Gloria retorted.<\/p>\n
Humbert looked solemn. \u201cWe should prepare for the worst. It\u2019s strange for her to come back, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. White said the same thing. Step aside and don\u2019t stop me. The boss is in danger now!\u201d Ladd\u2019s face was filled with hostility. \u201cI\u2019ll go in and stop \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Before he could finish speaking, they heard a blushing voice.<\/p>\n
They all had sex experience. No matter how dumb they were, they understood what was going on with this voice.<\/p>\n
Ladd\u2019s face turned red.<\/p>\n
\u201cKick the door. Go in and stop it. Your boss is in danger.\u201d Gloria ridiculed.<\/p>\n
Humbert put his hands into his pockets and walked to the end of the corridor.<\/p>\n
Inside the door was a small world that seemed to be isolated from the outside world.<\/p>\n
In the end, the woman stood up silently and put on her clothes quietly.<\/p>\n
\u201cCaden, we didn\u2019t use protection just now.\u201d The woman said unhurriedly in a coarse voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe a new life is started here.\u201d She gently stroked her belly.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know how much I hate you. You said you owed me too much and hurt me too deeply.<\/p>\n
\u201cThen you should know how much I hate you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The stars in the man\u2019s eyes dimmed. \u201cGrace \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re dying. Before you die, I should get some interest back.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m afraid when you\u2019re dead, I won\u2019t be able to collect debts from a dead man.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe success rate of the surgery the day after tomorrow is very low. If it fails, when you die, I\u2019ll let your child call someone else father.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man\u2019s eyes lit up and he hastily rejected. \u201cNo way!\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman smiled at him and said, \u201cOf course I can. After all, I hate you and don\u2019t want you to die in peace.\u201d<\/p>\n
She comforted him. \u201cDon\u2019t worry, your child won\u2019t grow up without a father.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course! My child will have a father to grow up with.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
