Love in Blind (Caden and Grace) novel Chapter 78

In the midnight

Grace went back to the South Bay House alone and went downstairs to her dormitory. But when she got to the second floor, she found that the corridor light was not working.

Grace glanced at the light, and thought that only the light of this floor was broken, and then carefully groped her way upstairs. But when she arrived at the third floor, she found that the light of this floor was also broken.

She took out her phone and turned on the flashlight to illuminate the way to her dormitory.

When she finally reached her dormitory, she saw a person at the door and shivered slightly, “Mr. Cayne, why are you here?”

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

“…” Oh please! What she was asking was that why he was here, not how long he had been waiting for her.

“Wh… What’s the matter?” Grace, with the key at her hand, didn’t intend to open the door in the face of Cayne. She had always been vigilant… Cayne noticed it and knew why she would be like this, and he felt a bit… excited.

Hmm… It must be good to win the favor of a defensive prey.

“I’m hungry.”

“… What?”

“I said,” Cayne rubbed his belly and continued, “I have eaten nothing this livelong day, so I’m hungry.”

He was hungry… But why did he come to her?

Grace couldn’t figure out the reason and was a bit confused, “Then you should go and have night snack.”

“Yeah, you’re right; so I came to you for night snack.”

“You came… for night snack?” Grace emphasized the word ‘came’.

Where did he come to?

To her dormitory?

So he meant… “Do you mean that you specially waited for me at the door of my dormitory, just because you wanted me to make dinner snack for you?”

“Yeah, you’re so smart.”

Please! This had nothing to do with her intelligence!

“I won’t have it for free.”

He casually took out a cheque and filled in some numbers, “Take it. I want to eat the noodles with scallion oil you made for me last night.”

A complicated feeling flashed across Grace’s eyes when she glanced at the number on the cheque… What was this man’s purpose? Why did he approach her intentionally?

She couldn’t figure it out. But… Grace peeked at the cheque again and two little fairies began to quarrel in her mind.

One said: Don’t take the cheque and don’t meet him any longer.

One said: Just take it. You’re in short of money after all. You need it to redeem your future, right?

“Miss James? Miss James?”

Cayne looked at the woman, whose mind had drifted away, in front of him and called her name.

Grace, who was in a trance, finally came to her own sense. She lowered her eyes and her gaze happened to land on the cheque. After a long while, she reached out shivering and took the cheque.

A trace of smile crept on Cayne’s brown eyes… As expected, money was her Achilles' heel.

Some people may feel confused: What’s the interesting point of a gold digger?

Cayne would not be bothered by this kind of question… As for him, this woman was really interesting.

She was so interesting that he had a hunch that he would not feel boring during next two months in the S City. As for two months later when he left, what this woman called Grace would suffer… Oh, he had never thought of this. Anyway, he must have won her heart when he left two months later. Then this woman’s would be added to his ‘Hunted List’. That would be the only result.

With a cracking sound, Grace opened the door of her dormitory, “Mr. Cayne, please come in and have a seat. I’ll go and make night snack for you.”
