Love in Blind (Caden and Grace) novel Chapter 51

She pushed him back, making him become more dominant.

“Snap!”

There was a crackling sound. And the world was quiet all of a sudden.

Caden incredulously looked at the woman underneath him. With her hands trembling violently, she was staring at him in fear.

Caden stared at the woman amid the mattress. She hadn’t slapped him hard and he wasn’t in pain. However, Caden Shaw, the Young Master Shaw who enjoyed a privileged life and a helmsman of the Shaw Family, was slapped by someone for the first time in his life. He pursed his thin lips into a line, drooped his eyes, and stared at the woman beneath him. Then he suddenly stood up and got off the bed. After that, he turned his back on Grace James on the bed.

"Change your wet pants so as not to wet my bed."

A pair of clean sweatpants for men was dumped by the side of Grace.

Grace was stunned. And the man left the bedroom without turning back and suppressed his anger under Grace's gaze, "Get changed quickly, Humbert White will come to check on your illness later."

“Check on my illness?

"I'm not sick."

"How come you suddenly fainted if you were not sick?"

He scoffed her.

"I'm just not sick."

"Do as I say. Why are you talking nonsense and staining my bed?"

Caden disappeared at the entrance of the bedroom. “Bang!” He closed the door conveniently.

Grace took a look at the sweatpants for men by her hand.

She was hesitant for a while. Then she braced herself and slowly took off the wet pants.

At the right moment, there was a knock at the door, "Grace? It's me."

Humbert stood outside the door and knocked politely, "If you don't say anything, I will come in, okay?"

Grace immediately turned pale, "Don't… Come in… ”

But it was too late...

Humbert stood in the doorway and took a glance at Grace. As he eyed her up and down, a hint of oddness appeared in his eyes.

Grace was wearing Caden’s pants.

"Did you guys just have sex?"

"Huh?"

Humbert was joking. However, judging from Grace’s retarded response, he shook his head and already got the answer.

He walked over towards Grace, who looked even paler.

"Take it easy. I'm just doing a routine checkup."

"I'm not sick."

"You won’t suffer any loss for allowing me to check on you."

"No need, I'm really not sick."

Humbert suddenly raised his head and looked at Grace with a seeming smile, "Hey, Grace, what are you hiding?"

Grace thought that her heart stopped beating half a beat as she replied, "I'm just... not sick. I just hate doctors."

Humbert lifted his chin towards the bedroom door, "Do you want me to call him in and tell him face to face that you are now a handicap?"

Grace snapped her eyes wide open!

It was her most embarrassing deed and the last thing she'd ever wanted others to talk about!

She hated it the most when this matter was mentioned in front of the one who had started it all!

"How do you know… Oh… Sure enough." As she just finished asking how Humbert had known about it, she paused and suddenly said an inexplicable "Sure enough."

Humbert squinted, measured Grace, and felt that he had vaguely understood some things.

But, if things were as he guessed, then… Humbert looked at Grace compassionately… Grace could be really pathetic.

"Have you ever thought that some things are not what you think in secret?" At least, in Humbert’s opinion, no matter how much Caden hated Grace, he wouldn't be cruel enough to have her kidneys removed.

"It's all in the past. It's what I deserve." The woman, once one of the most flamboyant and confident women in Shanghai, was now saying those words as if she had reached the end of her life. She was lifeless, looking like an old woman who was over a hundred years old.

Humbert was shocked!

Humbert had once seen her kneel down humbly in front of Caden in person. However, when it was himself who was facing her, he was even more shocked!

Every line of her words revealed a kind of humbleness and meanness.

"Can an 'it's all over' make up for your kidney?" Grace’s confident look back then surfaced before Humbert’s eyes. The Grace back then had been admired by many famous youngsters. However, this woman in front of him… Originally, Humbert thought that three years’ time had only changed her appearance. But he didn't expect that even what was born in her bones would even be worn out.

"Do you really think that you deserve to be treated like this, Grace James?"

Grace never lifted her eyes and looked at Humbert anymore. Instead, she repeated as if she were a machine, "I deserve all of this." Her face was so stiff that she didn't look like a fresh person!

Humbert’s eyes were filled with disappointment. It turned out that the old Grace James had gone and would never show up again.

"I'm going to give you an examination now. Please cooperate." Humbert decided to do his business and didn't allow Grace to dodge him, "You'd better not move. I'm afraid that I will hurt you. Or, do you want me to go and call Caden in?"
