I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 195

Caden didn’t say another word, cut off the contact with Mr. Garcia and dialed Grace’s phone number. But no one answered. He frowned, called James’ House and it didn’t connect. In the end, he tried Jafar James’ cell phone.

The call was connected right away, “Mr. Shaw?”

“Is Grace with you?” Caden wasn’t in the mood for chitchatting, all he cared about was finding Grace’s whereabouts.

“Grace?” Jafar asked surprisingly, “She was here but she has just left.”

Caden said while thinking, “Left? For how long? Who was with her?”

“It was just a while ago, let me see. Well, about ten minutes. Miss Su drove the car and they left together. Is everything okay, Mr. Shaw? What happened? Is Grace okay?” Jafar stood up nervously and asked Caden on the other end of the phone.

Caden pulled a long face after hearing what he said, answered politely, “Really appreciate it, Mr. James.”

He hung up the phone right after and dialed Gloria’s cell.

After a busy tone, a robotic female voice was heard, “Sorry, the phone you have dialed is power off.”

He looked dignified, refused to believe what he heard and kept redialing. But the result was the same as before.

Caden became more and more worried because Gloria’s cellphone couldn’t get through.

Maybe Gloria’s phone ran out of battery or out of service. But situation like this never happened since she started working for him.

He squeezed his phone angrily and turned around suddenly. Exhaled a cold breath, he approached Sam the old butler, “What did grandpa want?”

Sam heard part of the conversation because he was right next to Caden just now. He assumed something was going on, but…

“I don’t follow, Mr. Shaw.” Sam asked with a puzzled look.
