I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 279

Grace’s face darkened all the way home.

By the time the car stopped, Caden had already taken the initiative to carry the things they bought.

She just planned to buy simple daily necessities, but…

She was glaring at that pile of stuffs.

It was the biggest mistake to take him to the supermarket.

On the contrary, he stood there with bright smile, telling her that he was in a very good mood.

But she was not good!

They entered the elevator and he leaned against her. She took half a step back in annoyance. Normally, someone would sense it and retreat.

But... Caden did not have such a consciousness at all.

When they just got home, she felt dizzy.

“Grace, are you alright?” The powerful arm tightly wrapped around her. She had almost fallen to the ground.

She reached out and pushed his hand away, “I’m just tired. Put on your new slippers.”

She saw him obediently changing his shoes and put on that slippers. He was so excited, “Grace, are they cute? So good, right?”

“…”

He asked again and again, “Are they good? Cute?”

What could she do? She just felt it funny. He didn’t feel tired, “How do you think?” She was so annoyed. She could only vaguely answer him. She really couldn’t tell lies that he looked cute and beautiful in those pink slippers...

It was so odd!

Hearing her answer, he immediately bent down and rummaged around in the bag. She was puzzled. “Oh! Found it.”

Her rabbit slippers... That obvious rabbit...

“Put it on, Grace.”

She got headache again… I wouldn’t!

She almost lost her rationality!

But he felt nothing and already squatted down in front of her.

She was puzzled.

He squatted on the ground, laughed and looked up at her dumbly.

“Grace, put on it as well.”

“No.”

She took off her shoes and took out her light gray slippers from the cabinet. He quickly reached out and snatched them away. Her expression changed.

He grabbed her ankle. She was shocked and wanted to avoid it.

He was so powerful.

“Grace, don’t move. I’ll help you put on the rabbit slippers.”

His words made her tremble.

Her eyes widened. The same handsome face but totally different actions. It was unreal.

What… was he doing?

He clumsily picked up one of the slipper and put it on her foot.

A familiar scene flashed by! Her heart ached, “Let me go!”

“Don’t move…”

“Caden! Stand up!” She was really angry at this moment. She only wanted the scene disappear!

As well as him!

“Wait a moment…”

He was kneeling on one knee, holding her feet in one hand. She could not explain why it was an eyesore to her.

It was indeed an eyesore!

“Caden,” she shouted in a hoarse voice, “listen carefully.

I don’t need you to help me put on shoes.

I don’t like the slippers you picked for me.

I don’t like pink toothbrushes and those water glasses.

I don’t like those things at all. I’m lying to you!”

Her voice grew louder and louder. She was shouting at him.

Angrily and painfully.

The anger and unhappiness had come so suddenly for no reason!

Her cheeks turned red. He was stunned by her roar. He still knelt on one knee and stared blankly at her. In the past, apart from his indifference, there was nothing else in his eyes.

At this moment, there was only dullness, doubt, and confusion left… He didn’t understand why she suddenly lost her temper. His hand moved close to his heart. Was he sick? Why did it hurt here?

However, which made him even more concerned was that Grace was angry.

“I...”

“What?!” The backlog of anger suddenly had an outlet. She didn’t want to pretend anymore.

He was stunned by her roar again, and a strong sense of unease appeared, “I’m sorry…”

“Enough! Caden!”

“Can you stop saying sorry?!”

If he wanted to apologize, did it when he was sober.

She would not accept it now!

There was no need for an eight-year-old child to apologize.

She changed into her own slippers and walked to the bedroom. She was a little dizzy. Maybe she had been overworked recently and needed a good rest today.

But she completely lost consciousness before she could make a move.

He was scared and pounced over to carry her in his arms in time. His arms around her waist tightened.

“Grace? Grace?”

He anxiously called her, but there was no response.

He didn’t know what to do. He immediately took out her phone and called Ingemar, “Grace fainted.”
