I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 102

Caden was suddenly reluctant to go to Royal Club.

"Why didn't you go to Royal Club recently?" Humbert was sitting on Caden’s desk rudely.

Caden ignored what he said at all, and Ingemar chuckled lightly, "Well, Humbert. Why do you expect him go to Royal Club?"

Humbert glared at Ingemar. There were so many stories here. Ingemar was not in the country a while ago and didn't know it.

"Hey, could it be because of her?" Humbert tapped his finger on the desktop.

Caden didn't speak, and Humbert leaned forward with a gossiping look, "Who? Who? Because of her? Who is she?" He smiled curiously.

"Oh, President Shaw. Is there anyone you admire? Who? Which beauty? Take her out with you and let us have a look."

Humbert took pleasure in his words, "Ingemar, I think you will be beaten if you keep talking about that."

"Stop! What's the matter with you! I’m asking him. President Shaw, who, which beauty captured your heart?"

A fist directly met Ingemar's guilty face and slammed it. Ingemar's eyes suddenly shrank, and he quickly avoided, patting his chest, "Damn it! Caden, you ambush me!"

Humbert laughed, "Idiot. I reminded you earlier that you would be beaten if you kept talking. You didn't believe it. You asked for it yourself."

Ingemar looked back and forth between Caden and Humbert suspiciously, then he did a double take, "Fuck! It's not Grace, right?"

A fist caught him.

Well, Ingemar was really beaten after speaking.

"Fuck, fuck! I guessed right! I must have guessed right! How else would I get beaten? Caden, hurry up. Tell me what happened during my absence?"

The curiosity about gossip flashed in Ingemar’s eyes. Then a cold gaze fell on him. Caden asked him calmly, "Do you want a fist or a slap?"

Ingemar was speechless.

Humbert tugged Ingemar and let him stand behind him, and turned his head to look at Caden,

"What do you think?"

The Parker pen in Caden's hand stopped. After a while, he put it on the table, squinting in thought.

Humbert did not urge him.

Caden raised his head suddenly and said to Humbert, "I want to see Grace be the one she used to be three years ago."

When these words sounded, not only Humbert, but even Ingemar was stunned.

"Time can't go back." Humbert said lightly, "She is what she is like now, you can't change her."

"I haven't thought about changing her." The man behind the desk said with a serious face, "I don't like the way she is now. Grace who has no dignity and self-respect soul is not herself."

"You can keep your eyes out of sight." In Humbert’s view, Caden was just asking for trouble, he could not see her if he didn’t want to.

"She wants to leave, just let her go." Seeing that Caden said nothing, Humbert added.

He didn’t expect his simple suggestion would make Caden so strange. His face turned to be gloomy immediately and he said coldly, "Impossible! It can only be a dream for her to leave me!"

At this moment, not only Humbert saw the problem, but even Ingemar, a playboy who had always only cared about gossip, also saw the problem.

"Caden, you are in trouble." Humbert announced.

There was no smile on the face of Ingemar that had always been laughing and joking, only a serious face remained, "Stockholm syndrome, you are the opposite extreme."

"So, you didn't go to Royal Club because of her? Why? You don't want to see her, or are you... afraid to see her?" Humbert was a doctor after all, and his words were close to the truth!

"How is it possible?" Would he be afraid to see her? This was never possible.

"You are in love with her." Ingemar said after Humbert.

The man behind the desk pulled out a sneer on his handsome face, "This is even more impossible!"
