I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 135

When Grace was startled, Caden stretched out a hand to rub her head. "Okay, I'm going to order a takeaway."

Grace was still in a daze until the takeaway was delivered... She carefully glanced at Caden who was standing in front of the window—this was the first time she saw Caden compromise.

While eating, Caden forced Grace to eat a small bowl of rice.

"Why don't you drink soup? It doesn't taste good?"

From the very beginning, he had never seen her take a sip of soup.

So he served her a bowl of soup and put it in front of her.

But he saw this woman hesitate and refused to drink the soup.

Under his forcing, she reluctantly picked up the small bowl, took the spoon, and drank it spoon by spoon.

But……

Caden looked back and forth between her and the bowl in her hand. After watching for a while, he understood something. He snatched the bowl in her hand and snatched the spoon in her hand. After picking out the green onions floating in the soup, he stuffed back the bowl of soup into Grace's hand.

Then he looked at her silently. Grace trembled in her heart, holding up the bowl to drink soup, wishing him not to see her.

"If you don't like it, say it." The man said in a low voice.

Grace’s hand which was holding the bowl trembled. If there was no the soup in the bowl, it would have spilled out on her hand. Then she raised her head and glanced at him opposite... ‘I don't like you. Can you let me go?’

‘If you don’t like it, just say it.’ Would it be useful if she said it out?

She lowered her head again, chuckled silently... She only felt that he and her at the moment were extremely ironic.

She loved him and became addicted to him. But he hated her and felt disgusting with her. Even after Wallis’ incident, they could be able to sit together and eat lunch peacefully. After what he did to her, he could still help her pick out the green onions. It seemed that there had never been Wallis’ death and love-hate disputes between them.

Since he hated her, why did he do these caring things? Those actions were as if he loved her so much. But if he loved her, why was he so cruel and threw her into the dark place...? After three years, her past feelings for him had already gone because of the fear and the resentment towards him.

The best ending for them was that even when they met, they would better to treat each other as strangers and stay away from each other. At least, Grace thought so.

All afternoon after this, he worked behind his desk, and she was reading books on the sofa.

If others didn't know the relationship between the two people, they would think they were a couple.

At the end of get off work, the door in the office was knocked. A row of fashionable people came in one after another.
