I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 118

Leon and Cayne both froze when the door opened.

But at the next second, Leon smiled to Franklin, “Well done, boy. That’s quick.” His impression on Grace came from what happened that day in the private room.

On the gorgeous face of Cayne, a meaningful smile appeared,

“We meet again, Miss James.”

Franklin and Leon both were surprised.

“You know each other?”

Franklin turned to Grace and smiled, “When did you meet Cayne the first time?”

At this moment, Grace’s hands began trembling lightly.

It never occurred to her that these three men were best friends.

But what surprised her more was that Franklin took her to meet his best friends.

Grace asked herself in her heart that if she had known, would she have come?

No... the answer was simple and clear.

Franklin was thoughtful enough to pull a chair for Grace, “Have a sit. Don’t be so nervous. Leon and Cayne are both my friends. They may look like they are hard to get along with, but they are nice actually.”

Grace’s face remained pale and she smiled reluctantly before sitting down.

Leon bantered, “When did the well-known playboy Mr. Cordon become so thoughtful?” Then he continued, “And why did you mean by ‘we may look like we are hard to get along with’? Do we really look like that?”

“Right, Cayne?” While saying this, Leon turned to Cayne and elbowed him.

But Leon found that Cayne kept staring at Grace with interest.

Leon frowned, “Cayne, stop staring at Miss James this way. You will scare her. And Mr. Cordon will fight you for it.”

Cayne smiled lightly, “Oh, really?” Then he asked Grace indifferently, “Did I frighten you, Miss James?”

Cayne said the last two words in a strange, meaningful way.

Grace’s face turned paler.

At this moment, Franklin focused his eyes on Cayne and said, “Why do I sense that you take an interest in my girlfriend?” Franklin didn’t like the way Cayne stared at Grace as well as the way he called her “Miss James” ...Maybe he was just thinking too much. But the more the thought about it, the unhappier he got.

Cayne raised his eyes and glanced at Franklin. And in seconds, his interest was gone. Then he looked at Grace coldly and said indifferently, “Relax, she is not my type.”

Leon who was sitting beside turned to Cayne and peeked at him...What was wrong with him today? Every word from his mouth sounded weird.

A tinge of unhappiness flashed across Franklin’s eyes. He squinted at Cayne and then reached his hand to cover Grace’s hand. Then he smiled and asked her gently, “What do you want to eat?”

“I... Where is the bathroom? I need to go to the bathroom.” If she remained under the glowing eyes of Cayne, she was afraid that she would break.

“Turn left after you went out.”

Right after Franklin finished the words, Grace stood up and rushed outwards.

“She must be in haste.” Cayne said suddenly.
