I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 136

After being released from prison, it was the first time that Grace heard Wei’ai Foundation from someone else. After being released from prison, Grace did not inquire about this matter.

"Wei’ai Foundation... has nothing to do with me. My dad... the rest of the James family will do it well and cherish it."

After all, Wei’ai Foundation was not only her own effort, but also her grandfather's most effort. The rest of the James family would cherish and love it.

She took it for granted. The man in front of her suddenly chuckled, "Grace, if it weren’t for the fact that Wei’ai Foundation had run well in your hands, I would almost suspect that you were too naïve. Grace, you thought the James family so good."

Hearing this, Grace felt a "thump" in her heart. She had a bad feeling, "What does Mr. Caden mean?"

"Tonight's banquet, strictly speaking, is an auction. The organizer is the James family, and the location is also the villa of the James family."

The more Grace listened, the more she felt wrong, "Auction...what?"

Would it be…?

"Your father and brother are going to change the chairman of Wei’ai Foundation tonight, which means..."

"They want to sell Wei’ai Foundation!" She interrupted Caden's words and shouted loudly!

Caden stopped talking and stood up, "It's up to you to go or not."

Grace gritted her teeth... It was true that she was afraid of going to such a crowded place, afraid of facing the contemptuous glances of those acquaintances, afraid of appearing in front of others, but...but that was Wei’ai Foundation.

"Go. I'll go with you." She had to take a look with her own eyes, otherwise how could she be willing?

Caden nodded. He waved at the stylist waiting by the side, "Help her."

Grace sat on the sofa and allowed those people to smear her face... This time, she had to go! Wei’ai Foundation was a gift from her grandfather. Even if it was now in their hands, she had to see with her own eyes how those "family members" ruined her and grandpa’s efforts!

Like a puppet, Grace let the stylists do whatever they wanted to do. This woman sat here silently. Caden leaned aside, watching all this quietly.

There was no glamorous makeup, but gradually, that woman's face has the appearance of previous Grace... It was strange that he still remembered the appearance of Grace back then. After three years, Wallis' appearance had been blurred. He couldn't remember how Wallis looked like. But the woman's looks when she confessed, the looks when she was angry, the looks when she was proud, and even the occasional domineering looks... he could remember clearly at this moment.

She obeyed the stylist's advice and was about to put on a pure white dress.

"Wait a minute." Caden spoke lightly. Grace looked over, and the stylists all looked at him, Caden walked to the long row of hangers that brought by the stylists into the office. He glanced around in the row of colorful dresses. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand to pick out one of them. "Wear this black one."

Grace glanced at the long dress in his hand and slowly reached out to take it.

She walked into the lounge attached to the office. Not long after, the door of the lounge was silently pushed open again. Caden looked over. He felt amazing...not because of her appearance, because the black fishtail dress which was in her reminded him of the scene that she confessed her love to him in front of everyone when she was eighteen years old.

He felt shocked. Under these hot eyes, Grace became more and more uncomfortable. He waved his hand. "Go."

...

The car was driving on the road, but after a while, it turned into an alley. The alley was not big, and it was barely able to get in a car.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of a handicraft workshop.

Caden got off the car in a very cool manner. He walked around to Grace's side, and stretched out his hand to open the car door, "Get off."

"Mr. Caden, isn't the location of the banquet at the villa of the James family?" Grace asked slowly as she got out of the car.

The man had taken her hand and walked forward, "Before going to the banquet, there is something to be solved."

After Grace entered this quietly-fronted handicraft workshop, she realized that it was not an ordinary handicraft workshop.
