I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 158

As long as she was obedient, she wouldn't hurt anymore. What a simple thing that sounded... She had no reason to refuse to do this.

"You don't have to go to Wei’ai Foundation."

"……" Why? The woman moved her lips a few times, but finally swallowed her protest into her stomach... As long as she was obedient, she wouldn't hurt anymore... "...Umm."

"You hand the project you are dealing with now which is related to Wei’ai Foundation to someone you trust... Well, that Vivian is not bad." The man "suggested" again.

"But..." ‘But there are a few people who are quite difficult to deal with. Vivian can’t deal with them’... She subconsciously wanted to refute. The phrase "As long as you are obedient, I will never treat you like that again" reverberated in her mind. She dropped her head cautiously, and bit her lip helplessly. ‘Grace, don't resist. It's useless. It's vain. If he doesn’t let you go, you can’t even get out of this city.’

‘Don't resist. He will dislocate your jaw.’

"Got it." The little head hung down, nodding obediently.

But why was she so unwilling!

Her eyes were a little red. But finally, she couldn’t help but asked, “Why can’t I even go to Wei’ai Foundation?” After all, she couldn’t do that. Under aggrieved, she couldn’t help but to question him.

"There is Ladd around me. I can't run away."

The man sneered. The man's black eyes fell on the little head in front of him. The cowlick swayed in front of him. He put out his hand to cover her head and gently stroked, "So my little Grace knows she shouldn't run?"

Hearing this, the woman couldn't help but shiver... When had this man called her "Grace" so softly?

She looked forward to soft "Grace" for twenty years. Now she heard it so suddenly and unexpectedly, but why did she want to laugh?

Fortunately, with her head down, he couldn't see the irony in her eyes.

She was also afraid that after he saw the irony in her eyes, she didn't know how he would torture her.

"As long as you stay by my side obediently, you don't need to worry about Wei’ai Foundation. If something Vivian can't solve, she can report to me. Naturally, I will help you deal with it." She heard his low voice, "You just need to stay by my side." ‘As in the past twenty years, just love me wholeheartedly...’ He added in his heart.

"...Hmm." Just be obedient... She grinned silently, and laughed silently. Just be obedient!

What was he going to do?

She turned to look out of the car window. She was dragged into the car from the office lobby yesterday and brought to Royal Club, but he did not touch her. That night, she couldn’t fall sleep.

Unexpectedly, when he got to work, he took her into the car again.

The lamppost outside the window quickly moved back.

…...

She was shocked and exclaimed out, "This road is not to the Shaw Group!"

After she finished speaking, her shoulders were pressed down and a warm breath blew to her, "Indeed." The magnetically heavy voice sounded. She smelled the fragrance of grass and a hint of nicotine, "From today, you will live in the Shaw Manor." ‘I’ll take you home...’ He added silently. Because of the phrase "I will take you home" in the bottom of his heart, he was so excited... With her, his house was called home.

For the first time, he felt like home, looking forward to the home with her.

In the past, once this woman entered the manor, he only felt that the trouble came again. No matter how indifferent or unwilling he showed, this woman was always not shameless, pretending to not understand his eviction order. She was just reluctant to leave the manor.

When he worked in the study, she and Wallis Venus were basking in the yard.

Occasionally when he got tired, he got up and walked towards the French window, he would always see her in the yard with her trousers rolled up and her shoes took off. She was not like a girl at all. She sprawled on the lawn.

Thinking this way, the memory was incredibly deep. He was extremely looking forward to the following days to come.

But the woman beside him didn't think so.

Her shoulders trembled... The Shaw Manor. There were too many memories about her and him, memories about her and Wallis... Did she have to live here?

Her lips were trembling, and they were already pale... She wanted to run away.
