Love in Blind (Caden and Grace) novel Chapter 60

Grace didn’t wake up until the afternoon due to her exhaustion and fever.

She blinked her eyes open and took in the white celling, wondering where she was.

“Wake up?”

A magnetic voice suddenly sounded.

Grace’s heart stuttered before turning back to see the man languidly leant in the chair, holding a file in his hand.

When Grace looked at him, his narrowed eyes happened to meet his. “Hungry?”

He shifted his eyes back to his file after asking.

Grace looked around and words slipped out of her dry lips, “President Shaw, thank you for taking me to hospital. Sorry to bother you.”

Caden annoyingly clenched his file tightly as he heard her husky voice.

President Shaw, thank you for taking me to hospital. Sorry to bother you…Was those all she could say to him?

Grace look down to the ground, not daring to look at him, for he didn’t say anything.

Nothing but Page turning sound filled the whole ward.

Caden kept going through his file as Grace was in silence.

Awkward, yet kind of harmonious.

Neither of them bothered to ruin the weird air.

Finally, Grace uttered.

“President Shaw.”

She opened her mouth, gently calling.

But the man by her bed had no response for her calling as he was busy with his own business.

“…”

After a moment, Grace couldn’t stand the silence anymore. “President Shaw?”

Only the sound of turning pages answered her.

“…” Seconds ticked by. “President Shaw?” Her voice was louder this time.

“What?” The man laid down the file and gently raised his brow, leveling Grace with a look.

“Is Ruby alright?”

Boom!

His temper was blown up.

Composed and calm as he was, he was pissed off.

“Grace, don’t you think you’re way too Mother Maria? How come a patient like you should care for other’s safety?”

Grace bit her lips and looked at Caden sincerely. “I only beg you to leave her alive in one piece, while you can do whatever you like to punish her.”

“What now? You are too kind to be her best friend?” He teased.

Grace didn’t retort, instead, she sincerely looked into his eyes. “You can punish her as she’s one of your staff. I only beg for her life.

And I promise it’s the last time I beg for her.” She emphasized,

“I really don’t want to get another killed owing to me.”

Which felt like a great debt.

Caden unassumingly looked at the woman in bed.

“Did you admit it, Grace?”

“Did you just admit that you’ve got someone killed?”
