I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 203

When Caden arrived at the hospital, he only saw Gloria, but not Grace. Gloria was already asleep when he arrived.

Kirk knocked on the door, Gloria woke up with sleepy eyes.

“You alone? Where is Grace?”

Caden’s face darkened, but Gloria showed no signs of a guilty conscience, “Grace said she was thirsty and went downstairs to buy some water. Didn’t you see her on your way?”

She could help Grace escape, yet she couldn’t let this man in front know about her escape. Gloria was still Gloria, she could risk helping Grace just for the unspeakable insistence that had been buried deep inside her heart for many years.

But she would not put herself in danger to help someone.

Facing Caden, Gloria would definitely not confess.

Another thing was that she saw the determination in Grace. A tremendously strong will drove this silly woman to risk everything in order to escape.

Caden touched his eyelid. Starting from a while ago till now, his right eye’s eyelid kept jumping continuously. He started to feel panic for no reason.

“Go, go find her!”

Kirk and his men got the order and executed it immediately. They searched every corner of the entire hospital, but still found nothing.

Caden’s handsome face was icy cold. Without a word, he walked straight to the dean’s office.

“My wife is lost. I want to see the camera.”

He didn’t talked nonsense, and the dean was also scared, asking his subordinates to get the camera after hearing that Caden had lost his wife.

Gloria stood behind Caden. She was actually nervous, but she knew that she couldn’t panic at this moment.

The man’s sharp black eyes located on the screen, and his body didn’t move at all. Suddenly, a scene caught his attention, his eyes shrank. He shouted urgently: “Stop!”

“Forward 15 seconds, enlarge it.”

After a series of orders and actions, the computer screen soon revealed a motionless scene. The screen was gradually enlarged at a certain ration. As the screen was enlarged, the intelligibility decreased accordingly, but the man still recognized the woman from the screen.

She got in a taxi. Caden took out his phone and made a call back home, with his hands trembling… He held the almost impossible hope to make this call,

“Is Grace, at home?”

“Madam?” the butler immediately answered: “Haven’t you found Madam? Kirk told me that she was already found…”

Splat…

No need to ask, she didn’t go back home at all!

As the phone dropped to the ground, Gloria saw the man’s tall and strong figure shook. He almost fell onto the ground if not the support from the desk.

At this moment, Gloria somehow felt pitiful for this man.

But, Caden was still Caden. The next second, he looked grim again, turning around suddenly: “Kirk, check all the flights, trains, long-distance cars that took off today and the ticket purchase for each. See if my wife buys a ticket.” Her ID card was still in his place… No… No! Without her ID card, she wouldn’t be able to purchase the tickets for flights, trains, or long-distance cars. The man stopped Kirk at once, who was about to leave,
