I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 31

‘Humbert, you really dared to say it!’

 

Even Ingemar who was typically undependable, couldn't resist and shivered while looking at Humbert.

 

“Humbert, 'I see that there isn't anything that concerns us now. I'm hungry, let’s go eat something”

 

‘Let's go let's go, buddy, now that Caden hadn't lost his temper, let's quickly go... Ingemar said anxiously to himself:

 

That was true, how could Humbert not know Caden's resentment for Grace.

 

Grace caused the death of Wallis and at that time Grace was the eldest daughter of the James family. Caden wanted her imprisoned and she was. Now that she was out, he will definitely not let her off.

 

A fool could see how much Caden hated Grace.

 

How could a typically scheming Humbert say such a foolish thing?

 

Not to be swayed, Humbert smirked and joked, “Caden, do you wish to know? he said as he pointed to the woman on the bed, 

 

“Do you wish to know, this woman's secret?”

 

He was a doctor and a rather renowned doctor.

 

If just now during the checkup he didn't find something unusual, then he would have wasted his time all these years.

 

The man beside the bed squinted and looked towards Humbert and said, “NO!”

 

This woman's secret? ... Even if this woman had a secret, he should be the first to know and not Humbert!

 

He had a raging fire within him. Apart from him, who else was that damn woman close to?

 

“If you're hungry, go and eat”

 

The order was clearly given for him to leave, Humbert blinked, "Hey, Mr. Shaw, have you no shame? How could you drive a person off after using him?’

 

“Let's go, Humbert.” Ingemar quickly dragged Humbert and pulled him to the lift.

 

“What are you doing?” Humbert glared at Ingemar in the lift, “Leave if you want to, why did you drag me out?”

 

Hearing this from Humbert, Ingemar was upset, “Hey, Mr. White, don't fail to see an act of kindness! 'I pulled you away for your own good. Are you crazy to say those in front of Caden? What you said was as good as saying that Caden has intentions for Grace! Are you sick in the head? Caden huh! Grace huh! The resentment between these two isn't that simple, that was Wallis’ life! Don't you know how much Caden hates Grace? He wanted her imprisoned and she was. No one in the James family dared to do anything. Now look at Grace, does she have the pride like three years ago? Those years when she was the eldest daughter of the James family, she was the pride of Shanghai especially her self-confidence and arrogance. All the sons of elite families in Shanghai will do anything for a chance to speak with the eldest daughter of the James family... The Grace of the past was unparalleled. 'I have to say something from my heart. Wallis did eye on Caden’s fame. Though Wallis has Caden's protection, she can't match Grace's aura in her presence. But just take a look at the person who was laying there on the bed, was she Grace? When you first looked at her, weren't you surprised? How could Caden be interested in her if he tortured her to this extent?”

 

Humbert spit out a breath and stared at him... “What the hell do you know?”

 

“What the fuck, can’t you say properly without swearing?

 

“Saying that you know nothing is already praising you. Okay now, supper is on me.”

 

“You...okay! 'I want to eat the sweet and sour pork done by your mom”

 

“Piss off, it’s so late in the night and you want my mother to cook for you? We'll have it at the roadside stalls. Want to eat or not is up to you”

 

“Eat!”

 

Of course, these two princes can't be eating at the roadside.

 

28 Floor of the Royal Club

 

Caden stood beside the bed and squinted at the woman on the bed... secrets?

What was this woman's secret...?

 

Why did Humbert know and not him?

 

He took his phone to call his subordinates.

 

“Boss’ Kirk's voice came from his phone.

 

“Regarding the ..”

 

As Caden was just saying.

 

The person on the bed, “Leona, don’t go..”

 

The person holding onto the phone tightened his grip.
