I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 199

She grew up with her grandfather, but Payne James preferred to stay with his parents.

Once, grandfather made a joke, saying that: I will give you two a task. Whoever can get the old pen carried by Uncle Don all the time will win and the reward is the jade from my study room.

Later, she won and got the jade, she felt very delightful. She was born in a very wealthy family, so she had seen many jades before, but her grandpa’s jade was very different from the others. Its color was extremely pure. If she held the jade under the sun, the sunlight would go through the entire jade and glittered. Girls liked glittering things, and she wasn’t an exception as a little girl.

Payne wanted to take it from her when he saw the jade. She refused and pushed Payne slightly, but Payne fell onto the ground.

The housekeeper that took care of Payne saw this scene and was pissed off, so she said to the little Grace,

“You’re really a parentless child, so uneducated, and even pushed the master to the floor!”

She was shocked… Parentless?

She asked back immediately, “I have parents, why would you say that I am parentless?”

The housekeeper was stunned as well, then she said, “Aren’t you growing up with the old master? I don’t see how close you are with your parents… Oh, it was actually my fault. I saw the young master falling to the ground and I am too worried about his situation. Grace, please don’t tell the old master, will you? It was my fault, and I would apologize to you.”

She was young at that time, thus, she believed the housekeeper’s words.

But now, at this moment, Grace felt her right foot burnt by actual fire because Sam said that “the sole of my daughter’s right foot has a mole”. It hurt so painfully that she couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Just, just because of a mole on the foot, you think that wasn’t your daughter? What other proofs do you have besides that black mole to prove that Wallis wasn’t your daughter?”

Only the mole of the foot wasn’t enough to prove her thoughts… Many people in this world had a mole on their foot.

As soon as Sam opened his mouth and was about to talk, a noise sounded suddenly.

“Who is it?” Sam tightened his body and looked around warily. His cloudy eyes moved around, scanning across every inch of the surrounding. Although he didn’t catch anything, yet this sudden noise put pressure on Sam.

Sam changed his expression and was afraid that things might go wrong: “No more talking!… If I can’t live, you will not either! Die… with Wallis!”

As he finished his words, his murderous look was unfolded completely!

A sharp flick knife approached Grace!

“Stop!”

Gloria realized that she couldn’t hide any longer. She didn’t expect the old man to be so vigilant. If there was anything unusual to him, he became alerted and was going to kill Grace without hesitation.

She put her hands on the back and sent her location to Caden with the phone.

After that, she hurriedly threw it to the corner… If the old man saw the phone, he would definitely find out that she had sent Caden her location.

“Gloria?” Grace shouted, “Run!”

“Don’t be stupid.” Gloria shook her head, “I could not escape the punishment of the boss if I run away now.”

“Sorry… for dragging you into this.”

“Silly girl, I chased all the way here myself. If I want to run away, I wouldn’t have come.”

“You are Gloria! You work for Mr. Shaw!” Sam yelled, “It’s none of your business at all. Why would you come here to die for this nasty woman? Don’t blame me then!”

“Heh, it’s so nice of you. You are just concerned that I overheard your nasty story, that’s why you want to kill me, right?”

Sam’s face was pale and red. He said, “Since you two are going to the hell with me today, it’s fine if you overheard it!”

“You’re insane! The grudge of your family even implicates the others, and you are blaming everything on others so shamelessly!”

“I totally believe that Wallis is your daughter!”

“At that time, she wanted to make Grace lose her virginity, but it backfired and harmed herself instead. Today you want to blame Grace again for your murder… Even you and Wallis are not biologically related, but I feel like you two are more related than you thought! Both selfish and cold-blooded!”

“Shut up!”

“Why should I? If you can do it, then I can also talk about it. Heh.”

Gloria’s radical speech reproached Sam bitterly. Grace calmed herself down gradually… As if she thought of something, Grace looked at Gloria, who kept stimulating Sam— Gloria was buying time!

Grace’s gaze moved to the iron gate…

…

Inside the car, Caden received the message sent by Gloria and he hurriedly opened it. A location popped out of the screen, his heart shrank instantly. The ominous feeling grew stronger and stronger!

There wasn’t a single word except the location… The two women were in a bad situation.
