I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 93

Gloria felt very nervous when facing Caden, “Mr. Shaw, I just feel sorry for Grace.”

She's explaining why she helped Grace to hide the source of that large sum of money from him.

Caden was not really in the mood at that time.

Grace's last bitter words kept ringing in his ears. After hearing Gloria saying “Sorry for Grace”, he suddenly smiled coldly, “Gloria, none of those under my leadership is a kind person.”

That woman could make people feel sorry for her?

... She still cursed and humiliated her former friend, who was already dead.

Would someone like her make people feel sorry for her?

He was so angry that it was inexplicable!

He wasn't that angry even when realized that she had become humble and pitiful!

The Grace in his impression was proud, arrogant, and absolutely not the type who would humiliate a dead person!

However, she had opened his eyes today... It made him unreasonably angry and disappointed.

He didn't understand what actually made him disappointed! Gloria's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. A sentence from the man before her could decide her life and death.

But... She didn't regret it!

“Mr. Shaw, I was wrong for disobeying your order. I am ready for the punishment.” Gloria straightened her back.

All of the sudden, Caden was distracted because he saw the Grace he remembered from Gloria.

Gloria was as brave and responsible as former Grace, while her back was also straight and... Had no regrets!

“Go to the torture chamber tomorrow morning for your punishment.” he said that resolutely and coldly before lifting his long legs and walked away.

He left Gloria leaning on the white wall with limp body. She only felt relieved after quite a while.

Gloria heaved a deep sigh and wiped the cold sweats on her forehead with her hand... It's a good thing that Caden was willing to let her get her punishment in the torture chamber.

On the second thought, how was that stupid Grace doing now?

Gloria didn't hesitate to go to Grace's ward while thinking.

In front of the ward door, Gloria lifted her hand to knock.

Suddenly, her hand stopped in midair and she listened carefully. That oppressive voice she heard just now was not her illusion!

Behind the door, there was an oppressive and hoarse road... Yes, it's the unique voice of that fool whose throat had been ruined.

Oppressive and depressed like a wounded beast, who wouldn't dare to whine loudly.

Gloria didn't take any step forward. She just stood in front of Grace's ward without moving like a statue.

After a certain time, that oppressive voice gradually disappeared. Gloria concentrated even harder to listen and confirm that the one in the ward had become quiet.

Gloria did not enter in a hurry. She kept standing in front of the door for around 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, she raised her arm and knocked on the door again before entering.

Gloria glanced at the person on the hospital bed, who was coincidentally looking at her too.
