I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 129

The hot water from the shower dripped from her head. She closed her eyes, letting her thoughts fly... She didn't know how to go on in the future.

If she gave up, it would be the simple way for her. She was useless. Her parents didn’t love her. She could die... But she was unwilling!

Before Leona's debt was paid off, she had no reason to give up.

As for that man... Grace was a little irritable. How long did she have to act with him?

No, she couldn't just sit and wait. She originally hoped that he would get tired of her as soon as possible, so that he would let her go, in this case, she would not have to risk offending him. As for money... In short, she first tried to get out of his sight.

She looked in the mirror again and over again. After taking a shower, Grace put on the clothes that she had worn today. But she didn’t go out, she stayed in the bathroom for a long time.

She didn’t know how long the time had passed. Based on her feelings, thirty or forty minutes had passed. She thought if the person hadn’t left, he would urge her impatiently.

But at this moment, she didn't hear any noise from outside.

Feeling peaceful in her heart, she stretched out her hand to open the door. After she looked up inadvertently and swept across the room, she immediately stunned... How could it be?

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, under the standing lamp, the man hasn't left yet.

He sat on a single calf leather sofa, like a modest and elegant gentleman. Grace stood at the door of the bathroom. She didn’t want to move...because she didn't want to get too close to him. If possible, what she wanted most at the moment was to close the bathroom door. It was best to isolate him from her.

But the reality was not as the same as what she thought.

Hearing the sound, the man looked up from the book. He glanced at her side with his sharp, deep and aggressive eyes.

But his sight only stayed on her for less than two seconds before looked away.

Grace secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly!

With a faint sound, the man's slender body suddenly stood up from the sofa. Step by step, he walked toward her with great ease.

Grace couldn't see the expression on her face, but the man saw it clearly.

The defense in her eyes, if measured according to the earthquake level, must be the earthquake preparedness level of seven or eight... There was a spreading pain in his heart, but he deliberately ignored it, and walked straight toward her.

He approached her, but she couldn't help but stepping back. She stared at the man in front of her, as if he was a devil. That look...made him very uncomfortable.

He took another step towards her. The woman finally started to be unable to hide the unspeakable fear deep in her heart. Her expression became nervous and flustered. "You..."

"Have you finished it?" The deep voice sounded timely.

Grace still stared at him. "Uh...Uh."

"But I haven't taken shower yet."

"..." He said in a low tone and low voice, Grace didn't understand what he meant for a while. After a while, she felt surprised. "Ah..." After she realized what he meant, she almost subconsciously asked, "Why do you take shower here?"
