Obviously, Grace also noticed the attention of the crowd.
“I am going to the bathroom.” She lifted her feet and scurried outside in panic.
How would Cayne let her go so easily?
Seeing that Grace want to leave, the expression on the man’s charming face changed, he stepped forth and wanted to chase Grace. However, there was a Caden Shaw in front of him, unshakeable like a mountain.
“Move out of my way!” He stretched out his hand to push Caden away, coldness glittered in the latter’s eyes, “In here, nobody dares to make trouble. Do you wanna try the consequence?”
The cold voice rang out.
Grace quickened her pace, the high heels under her feet really slowed her down.
“Wait a second, Grace! Answer me one question!”
Cayne was desperate, how could he let go of this chance?
If he hadn’t run into this woman again, he might just let this matter pass.
Grace held her steps.
With her back facing Cayne, she talked after pausing a half a minute, “Okay.” The gruff voice was low, without any emotion.
“You… besides my money, do you… do you have true feelings for me for a mere second?”
When Cayne asked this question, everyone’s expression changed.
Caden’s black eyes immediately sharpened, darting at Grace.
Both Humbert and Ingemar were stunned… This… This foreigner that looked as beautiful as a fairy had true feelings for Grace?
These two had been friends for many years, they had thought of this almost at the same time and looked at each other surprisingly. They saw the same shock and confusion in the other’s eyes.
As for Grace, her heart shrank the moment Cayne asked this question. For a moment, she thought she had heard it wrong, and her face was also full of surprise.
As for Cayne himself, the moment he asked the question, he got himself shocked first… His brown eyes looked shocked, how would he ask a question like this?
But, at this moment, the question he asked was this, even he didn’t want to admit it, it was still an undisputed fact!
There were some things that although one was desperate to deny, yet one’s body and heart would remain honest. The words that came out of one’s mouth without thinking were either a lie that had been fabricated in one’s heart beforehand, or they were the most honest truth.
No doubt, Cayne’s case was the latter.
He was a smart man, it seemed that he had already accepted everything at once.
He straightened his body and asked Grace again, “The late night food that you prepared everyday… Is there any other feelings except for the sake of money?”
This time, he wasn’t in a hurry like the first time. Seriousness was put on his beautiful face, he looked right into Grace’s eyes.
Sorrow emerged from Caden’s heart, he looked at Grace, as if looking at a wife that had cheated on him.
Both Humbert and Ingemar were looking at Caden instead.
“You see,” Humbert unfolded his hands, “I have already told you that she shouldn’t be back to the S City again.”
Ingemar was in a complicated mood, “In the end, the two became enemies, but Caden has true feelings for…” As Ingemar said, his eyes reflected traces of “ridiculous” and a bit of worry, “They…” Could they still be together?
“Me and you, we are just viewers. Since we can’t make things right in time, then… Let’s take care of that fool in love.”
